Our last weekend at the caravan before we closed it down for the Winter was idyllic. Cold, fine and frosty. This is what Melmerby looked like on Saturday morning. Jack Frost had sprinkled his magic.
We headed into Keswick later that morning. Hugo enjoyed playing with his inflatable in the lake. Didn’t see many other wild swimmers. 😉
After lunch we headed back to the Eden Valley as Keswick was bustling with festive shoppers. We parked up in Edenhall and enjoyed the quiet solitude of a countryside walk. The combination of frost and mist was both eerie and magical.
This morning we left a beautiful winter wonderland for our rather green Lancashire home.
Hello December. ❄️
sunshine and celandines 
Looks quite magical!! Love your pic of the berries. I would frame that one 😊
Thanks, it really was gorgeous. X
Lovely pics. I see Hugo enjoyed himself again 🙂 x
The cold doesn’t faze him. 🙂 X
Beautiful scenes 🙂
Really hard frost, almost like snow. X
Why is it dogs seem to have no feeling when it comes icy water!!
I know! Didn’t bother Hugo at all. X
Some of your best photos
Oh thank you, just on my phone. The frost was lovely x
What a super set of pictures.
Aw thanks , totally Mother Nature’s fault. 😉
Beautiful photos, you are so lucky to have the van x
What great atmospheric piccies! (Already viewed (and “liked”) on your Instagram account). A walk on a frosty misty morning is the best bit of winter 😀 Wrap up warm and enjoy the contryside and back hometo a cosy house (or caravan!).. The cold, grey and damp miserable day today is not so good!
It was gorgeous, like Narnia in a way. 🙂
Delightful.
🙂
Fantastic photographs!
Thanks, it was magical. X
Brrr! Lovely pics. Can’t beat a bright, dry, frosty day.
The best kind of day for sure. 🙂
Lovely photos, everything looks so different and a little bit magical under a hoar frost. 😊 Hope you’re all staying cosy. X
Were home now, back up in the spring except maybe to check on things. Spent my first three years in a caravan so I should be used to the cold really. 🙂
Stunning photos. The frosty cobwebs on the Celtic cross is breathtaking.
Mother Nature at her best. X
Oh my goodness how beautiful!
Jack Frost and Mother Nature to thank. 🙂
Beautiful photos. How lovely to have a holiday home there:)
We feel very lucky Rosie, thank you. X
Beautiful. Lucky you, we had a really wet week last week.
The week was wet but the wknd was lovely, just what it should be at Christmas. Here’s hoping! X
Hoping but it will probably be damp as most years!
Beautiful! We had the heavy frost and the fog at the same time too – at home anyway, but it was much brighter when we got to Aberfoyle for our walk, being that bit higher.
I loved your walk with the fairy doors, just the right kind of wknd for it. X
lovely photos with the frost.
Thank you. 🙂 X
Some lovely frosty snaps & I don’t mind walking in the cold, as long as it’s not windy. Just think we were in Keswick early August enjoying strolling from our B&B to the town centre where there was a bustling market one day & eating at a couple of the local pubs. Stay warm & take care.
We are actually in Keswick over Christmas, can’t wait. Thanks Susan. Xx
It was an amazing weekend for frost and sunshine (where we were anyway). The light at times was magical as it shone through the white trees. Back to the wet, wind and gloom this week….
I loved seeing all the white frosty trees. 🙂
What a wonderful weekend to wrap up caravan season. You were very lucky!
