Lake District Lesbian Break.The original WW lesbian break - and another chance to walk and spend time in an all-lesbian group. Most women come on their own and it's always friendly. There will be a wide choice of walks each day so that you can stretch or take it easy according to how you feel. There are gentle walks mainly in the valleys - beside streams and lakes, or climbing low hills for the view. Intermediate walks can range from wonderful ridge walks to secluded swimming lakes in the hills! Or you can set your sights on some of England's highest 'fells' - Helvellyn, the Fairfield Horseshoe, Bow Fell, or the dramatic Langdale Pikes.

Glenthorne Guest House where we'll be staying is gay friendly and we've run many lesbian holidays from here, Dancing on the last night.taking all the rooms. The bedrooms are mostly ensuite with plenty of singles. There's a comfortable lounge, conservatory, and a lovely garden for sitting out in after walking. The food is excellent here! If you want to take a day off from walking, there's lots to see and do in the area. After walking there can be outdoor shops and tea shops to visit, games of whatever we choose, trips to the pub, a party on one evening, or space to just sit around talking.
