Keswick (pronouced Kessick) is a lovely town, with a mostly pedestrianized downtown. We walked to the distant lakefront of Derwent Water - not sure why they built the town so far from the shore - through the beautiful gardens left to the town by the local nobility. Here there is boating and other water sports. In town there are many Victorian mansions, many now B&B's and hotels, a charming place to stay. We found a nice pub for lunch; David ordered the "Chump" of lamb with roasted potatoes while I had a Caesar salad. The potatoes were outstanding - crisp on the outside but extra fluffy on the inside. At a small cheese shop we purchased some local cheese for supper.
