Long ago the Queen Of Fair Elfland saw a mortal sunrise for the first time. But her dawn faded too quickly. So she stole a piece of morning light and placed it in her crown. Since then, folk say the first glow of dawn lingers longer here, over the mere, than anywhere else

Rainwater from #StormBoelo retained in our rowing boats as ballast with a wicked wind whipping up the garden. Taken close of play #Tuesday. #Faeryland #Grasmere #LakeDistrict @StormHour

Thankfully there’s plenty of leaves left on the trees in the vale, despite the ravages of #StormBoelo, and the colours are changing nicely now. And of course there’ll be some sturdy trunks in the forest to satisfy #ThickTrunkTuesday! #Grasmere #LakeDistrict @ThePhotoHour

Even wet & windy mornings can be beautiful in the heart of the Lake District! Please note there will be no rowing boat hire or SUP launch today due to wind speed & flooded jetties. #Faeryland #Grasmere #LakeDistrict #HalfTerm #Tuesday

Power outages are never my cup of tea. However… It’s amazing how much you can get done without internet, tv or electricity! #Faeryland #Grasmere #LakeDistrict #Sunday #PowerOutage #Ongoing @ThePhotoHour

14:15 hrs in the heart of the Lake District. It’s still rough out there but thankfully we’re protected from the worst of it by Silver How and the Fae. #StormBoelo #Faeryland #Grasmere #LakeDistrict #Sunday @StormHour

#StormBoelo - the aftermath. Power cuts akimbo, many trees down, roads flooded. Swans grateful for a 2nd breakfast with chainsaws buzzing to clear fallen branches. We’ve had worse. Hoping to open again on #Tuesday. #Faeryland #Grasmere #LakeDistrict #Sunday @StormHour

Birds of a feather sticking together despite the weather… Last feed of the day and early closing as it’s lashing down and blowin’ a hoolie out there now! Please note we shall be closed on Saturday due to multiple weather warnings. #StormBuelo #LakeDistrict @ThePhotoHour

In between munching a cream scone and sipping a hot chocolate, our customer Gati managed to knock out this lovely pencil drawing of the Friday lunchtime scene here at Faeryland. #Faeryland #Grasmere #LakeDistrict #ArtistsHaven #Friday #Drawing

#StormBoelo will have a serious impact on our opening times over the next few days. We may open #Friday & #Sunday, subject to prevailing conditions, but #Saturday looks unfeasible. There will be NO boat hire or SUP/kayak launch available. #Update #HealthAndSafety @StormHour
