Your Emails
Dear Paula and Russell, I want to congratulate you on an excellent website. I wish more people wanted to promote the Lake District as you two do. If any of your visitors need somewhere to stay then let them know about our cottages and if they mention your website we will give them a discount. We are always keen to attract genuine lake district lovers. I also saw your flickr group, brilliant idea. Yours Eldred Curwen, Mirefoot Cottages
Why not do something amazing today?
No, I am not talking about something as painful as giving blood! Why not make a small donation to the charity WaterAid. Just £15 can provide one person with a lasting supply of safe, clean water. Our ambitious fundraising target of £3210 is calculated to help one person for each of Wainwright's 214 fells!. Find out more and make a small donation
