Day 34- Oban to Windermere - 11 October 2024

Day 34- Oban to Windermere - 11 October 2024
 
We did not have a big breakfast this morning as we wanted to start driving fairly quickly.  We had porridge and yoghurt that the hotel supplied so that was fine.  We left by 9:00 a.m. and the drive is about five hours.  However, after stopping a couple of times, we arrived mid-afternoon.

The Beech Hotel and Spa is on the banks of Lake Windermere which looks spectacular.  It is the longest lake in England. From the north to the south it is 18 km and the depth is up to 67 m.  that is a lot of water.  We plan on taking a boat cruise tomorrow and then we will check out some sites around the lake.  We did not get out at all today.
