Like many of us today, celebrated historian George Macauley Trevelyan fell completely in love with the Langdale valley during his family holidays here. So much so, that he was inspired to become its chief protector. This year we’re sharing some unique photos of their experience in the valley – 100 years on.

We have to be truthful, sometime it rains a little bit in Langdale and sometimes it rains a lot. But don’t be put off from a day out in the valley because actually some things are even better on a wet day. Here are our wet weather top tips.

We are so pleased that Sticklebarn is the first National Trust hydro-powered pub and we're serving you one of the greenest pints in the UK.
