After the thrill of The London Marathon we are now extremely busy at the #B&B!! Despite the many April showers in May mixed with sunshine lately, the garden has suddenly burst into colour! 🌸🌿 The flowers are looking absolutely amazing, and all the old walking boots are full and blooming beautifully too. It’s lovely to see the garden come to life again — it’s looking great at the moment! ☀️🌷We’re also enjoying welcoming walkers arriving from all directions along the Coast to Coast, the Lady Anne’s Way, the Settle to Carlisle Walk and the Dales Way, to name just a few. We’re loving hearing everyone’s stories and being part of their walking adventures! 🥾😊#BedAndBreakfast #WalkingHoliday #CoastToCoast #DalesWay #LadyAnnesWay #SettleToCarlisleWalk #YorkshireDales #WalkingUK #SpringGarden #AprilShowersinMay #GardenInBloom #WalkersareWelcome #HikingAdventures #BritishCountryside #BAndBLifeVisit Eden Breast Cancer Now The Lake District, Cumbria Coast to Coast Packhorse Kirkby Stephen - Walkers are Welcome Mickledore Walking Holidays Macs Adventure ...

Yes!!!! We did it!!!! What a day yesterday completing the London Marathon 2026💗Such a huge build up to get to that start line… overcoming foot surgery, injuries, doubts, fundraising and everything in between. To finally be there felt emotional, exciting and a little bit nerve-wracking—especially with the unexpected heat!Running for Breast Cancer Now made every single step matter even more. The generosity, love and support from family, friends, and our incredible guests has been overwhelming—thank you just doesn’t feel enough 💕The crowds were unreal ALL the way round… the energy carried us when it got tough. And spotting familiar faces I wasn’t expecting—Kevin, Ellie, George, Anne, Rosie and Bob—was such a boost! And of course our absolute #topsupporters Joe and Rachel’s Dan 🙌Rachel finding me at Mile 21 and then crossing that finish line with her surpassed everything else… we did it!! Together!! 💗 Over £4100 raised and still counting!!A huge thank you to #BreastCancerNow for their amazing support throughout this whole journey—from the very beginning right through to the unforgettable finish. That incredible reception at the Royal Automobile Club on Pall Mall… food, drinks, snacks, massages and even a round of applause as we walked in—just WOW.💗 Just Wow 💗Thankyou to you all xxxxBreast Cancer Now Visit Eden Coast to Coast Packhorse Kirkby Stephen - Walkers are Welcome The Lake District, Cumbria ...
