Buttermere

I knew I would love Buttermere from the pictures on this page, and I was so right! It was so beautiful but a lot more remote than even I expected. Make sure you have CASH when you get here because there is no ATM… no one will give cash back… and most of the few shops don’t even take credit cards. We almost didn’t have enough cash for the bus ride back to town… it was very scary and stressful thinking we would be stranded 8 miles from the nearest ATM! The YHA Buttermere was nice. And you HAVE to try to farm made icecream.
