Traveller notes on Windermere in June
June in the Lake District is the long-evening month — light until 10 or half past — and the forum's argument for it is timing rather than weather: school holidays have not started, so it is quieter than July or August, with everything fresh and green for walking. The weather is the usual bargain. Windermere averages 17°C in June with rain on fifteen days, and regulars are blunt about why the place is so green. Their phrasing is that it cannot be planned around — hot and sunny or cold and wet from one week to the next — so bring clothes for all seasons. Quieter than the school holidays is not the same as quiet.
