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.

    Still, damp evenings by the water and in the wooded valleys are when they are worst; the open fells and anywhere with a breeze are fine. Nowhere near a Scottish summer, but enough to move a picnic.
