Hawkshead 2026

Our annual trip to Hawkshead took place from 11th to 13th October 2026.

Joanne reports “A group of 17 of us gathered at Yewfield Guest House near Hawkshead on the 11th October for our annual dance club trip. After dinner at Yewfield we gathered in the studio for an evening of dancing led by Betty. We were joined by 4 local friends and an enjoyable evening was had by all. The following morning a group of us walked into Hawkshead for coffee where we met up with the rest of our group. Unfortunately it was a very dull and damp day so the views weren’t what we had hoped for. There was just enough time for a rest and a spot of lunch before gathering in the studio again for an afternoon of dancing. Graham put together a varied and interesting programme based on suggestions from members and several of them led their choice of dance. The Dancing Master was a particular highlight. After struggling with the walk through we all managed to dance it well. In the evening we headed to Coniston for a meal and then we gathered in the lounge at Yewfield for drinks and chocolates. On our final morning the sun came out and Jane led us on a scenic walk in Langdale. After lunch at a local pub we all headed home. Another fun and active trip was over for another year.”
