Keswick Museum & Art Gallery.

When in Keswick why not pay a visit to the Keswick Museum & Art Gallery. It is close to Fitz Park and the Sports centre. The museum is full of local history and has lots of Industrial Art on display. They desperately need donations so when visiting please drop a couple of pounds into the pot.

Whilst visiting a shop back home in Nottinghamshire, I came across this great product range called Herdy, on reading the label and noticing the beautiful face on the sheep, I knew it was the beautiful Herdwick sheep that you find in and around the fields in the Lake District.

The company Herdy have some great products and very reasonably priced and the good thing about them is that they donate part of the sale to the protection of the near one extinct Herdwick sheep. so go on and pop down to there shop in Kendal or buy online

I stable in Keswick Main Street in Brysons bakers, they produce fabulous bread and pastries and there Plum bread is to die for toasted. They have a cafe upstairs which is always busy and a coffee bar downstairs. Well worth a visit!
