Lake District in March?
I'm planning a trip to Keswick in March '04, without a car. Since this is before Easter, will transport options (Mountain Goat tours, boats on the lake, buses) and activities be operating? Thanks!

Eljay,
I was in Keswick in March of '01, and everything seemed up and running, although the schedules seemed abbreviated as I recall. Came in via rail from London, to Oxenholme, transferred to Windermere, stayed there a couple of nights, and then took a bus to Keswick, which, by the way, I found to be a more charming town. Stayed at the Edwardene Hotel. Nice friendly low-key small hotel. Here are some helpful sites for you to check out. Happy travels. Ando.

Yes Eljay, didn't want to rain on your parade (pun intended) but I too will be in England in March & wanted to do the Lake district. My English sister-in-law said the weather is likely not to cooperate & thought the Lakes would be miserable in bad weather.
