Natasha Foges, BRITAIN magazine editor (second from right) presents the Tourist Attraction of the Year award to Strawberry Field. Matt Baker (far left) hosted the ceremony.

Brownber Hall, near Kirkby Stephen, Cumbria – hotel review

Amid fells alive with birdlife and red squirrels, this stylish hotel in the north-west corner of the Yorkshire Dales proves a great base for walking

Coming up the drive to this elegant mid-Victorian mansion house, I notice a number of things: that the lane is flooding, the trees are shaking and that dark clouds are looming over the fells – it’s a full-throttle melodramatic arrival and probably not a rarity in these parts, I reckon. Along the lane are also lots of warning signs about the red squirrels. I am always the person who scoffs at such animal-caution signs, never having subsequently seen any sign of deer, frogs, and hedgehogs. Then we turn up the final section of drive and narrowly miss squishing a bushy-tailed gingery creature. He looks justifiably outraged, before posing for photographs.

Ravenshamen 2017 photos

I had the pleasure to attend Ravenshamen 2017 which took place high on a hill top close to the hamlet of Brownber close to the Lake District.

Despite the crappy weather a good time was had by all and plenty of dancing was afoot. Here’s a few photos of the event.

Roll on 2018!

This is the road that connects Newbiggin to Brownber.

I feel like I'm losing my mind.
