Hello, KC, and welcome! I have to agree with you on the charms of Cumbria--absolutely breathtaking! I've stayed on Windemere, the Ullswater and also just north of the Kirkstone Pass. One of my favorite memories is having pony trekked in the rain and mist near Troutbeck--at one point fog made the ride particularly surreal--and pretty dangerous!

KC--You can list your accommodation with POE for a nominal fee by clicking on "List Property" in the green box in the upper left hand corner of the POE webpage. Considering the large volume of visitors to POE, it might prove to be money very well spent!

Thanks, Rob we are in our first full year now and will achieve 90% occupancy so don't advertise an awful lot but I'll definitely give your offering some consideration.  Can I just check... is the £45 fee a one-off fee or an annual one?

KC - Welcome to POE from Anna and Ron.

Ordinarily I would have quickly edited your posts, especially as you have been sent the welcome email from me as Moderator which explains the circumstances of links etc for commercial businesses.

However, I will leave things as they are for the time being, in view of the fact that you may well be in contact with Chris and Sarah as Rob suggested above, with some advertising to help support this fantastic website and forum.

Sorry, no trouble intended!  As you'll see from my first post, I didn't post a link.  And then Rob (who I assumed must have been a moderator) said he had no problem with me posting it... so that's when I did! Sorry if I've got that wrong.

I can certainly see how you might have thought that way KC.

I have written to you and look forward to a response accordingly.

Rob.....want to start moderating?

Thanks Ron, but right now I have too many items on my plate. I would certainly consider it at a later date, though!

Hi Laura. Welcome to POE. Just returned today from our annual jaunt to the Cotswolds. It was as beautiful as ever. We are very lucky in England with some wonderful countryside and nowhere is that far away. Some other gorgeous places to visit not already mentioned are the Peak District in Derbyshire, Norfolk Broads, Cornwall and the New Forest. Enjoy yourself when you visit and please send some pictures in.
