I visited one of Ambleside's best-rated restaurants - and a mushroom stole the show (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Lake District doesn't really do middle ground when it comes to food. At one end of the spectrum you've got pubs serving hearty classics to walkers fresh off the fells. At the other, Michelin stars, tasting menus and wine pairings that can leave both your stomach and bank account feeling considerably lighter. Lanty Slee's, tucked away in the heart of Ambleside, has somehow found a space between the two. It's ambitious without being intimidating. The food is cooked by chefs with experience in
Sorry Kendal, but the Highway Code has settled your most annoying argument (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After being driven over Stramongate Bridge, myself and a friend turned onto New Road - first past a sign which conveniently reads 'USE BOTH LANES', and secondly past congestion in the right hand lane. So, having both the ability to read and drive, we carried on in the left hand lane, up to the merge point of the two lanes.

"I hope he never writes again" - How I upset Kendal Calling's camping chair brigade (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I used to work as a political correspondent in the heavily polarised and often-hysterical world of Scottish politics.
