YHA Borrowdale is a longstanding Lakeland favourite, a recommended stop on Wainwright’s Coast to Coast. Further afield, YHA Honister Hause puts you in the heart of the mountains. It’s been over 5 years since I was last up Bessyboot, and on that occasion the weather was mixed, to put it mildly, with rain, sleet, hailstorms, gale force wind, along with a few brighter spells. We experienced a white out on the summit, and there were no views whatsoever. Conditions were much better today, and hopefully I’d be able to see a little more of the surroundings Census 2001: Parish Headcounts: Allerdale". Office for National Statistics. Archived from the original on 13 June 2011 . Retrieved 22 November 2009.Borrowdale is fairly unusual for the Lake District in that it doesn’t have a huge number of pubs - primarily because of its remoteness. In fact, The Langstrath Country Inn is the only pub in Borrowdale. Fortunately, though, it’s a good one, and you’ll be glad you stopped by. One of the scenic places of this area is the tiny hamlet of Watendlath with a small tarn of the same name, a popular place for fishing. The entire hamlet is owned by the National Trust and is managed by tenant farmers. Grange Bridge – room for 8 or so cars at the Methodist church in Grange – perfect for hikes along the River Derwent It is hard to believe that this valley, now part of the National Park, was once a hive of industrial activity with iron smelting, charcoal burning, and mining for copper and graphite. Scattered hamlets reflect the Nordic influence in their names, while stone walls and vernacular buildings chronicle centuries of farming. Today farming struggles to make a living and visitors play an important role in sustaining the local community. Most of the mountains at the head of Borrowdale, including Scafell Pike and Great Gable, are part of the Borrowdale Volcanic Group, a geological development from the Ordovician period.
