Great news for all walkers in, and visiting, Rossendale. We have now received the new waymarkers for the 46 mile loop Rossendale Way.
On Tuesday 17 February 2015 we will begin the waymarking of the Rossendale Way. In addition to waymarking we will be rewriting the walking route taking note of all updates, changes and places of interest.
The Rossendale Way is a 46 mile loop taking ramblers, cyclists and walkers, around the beautiful and picturesque hills of Rossendale. We'll be starting our task in Bacup and will be setting off around 10am. Whilst we only expect to complete around six miles of the route on our first day we will be gathering plenty of information along the way to ensure that all future visitors are fully prepared to fully enjoy their walk or cycle.
Watch this space for further details, and to enjoy all the interesting facts about Bacup and Weir.

You have no doubt gathered from our various blogs that we both enjoy a bit of walking and cycling. We tend to venture within an hour's radius of the guest house, and are continually surprised with the wonderful views and tasty ales along the way. Our local walking has tended to be very much in support of a walk to our local so that we can have that "extra one" :) Sometimes, on a good day, we'll walk over the top of the hills into Rawtenstall. Again, a lovely walk with excellent views across the tops for miles.
However, I have now started running! We have many guests who get up in the morning and go for a run before breakfast: a tad over-zealous I used to think! Nevertheless, they all seem to enjoy the local run. Feeling that my fitness is in need of a prod, a friend suggested I try the NHS podcasts "Couch to 5k in nine weeks" When I first started I couldn't believe how hard I found it to run for 60 seconds. But, I persevered and today I just ran my first 20 minute run without a stop! I am so happy with myself, and I'm feeling so full of energy. I'm only just at the end of week 5 but already I feel like a different person.
The most important thing is............................ I'm running round our local roads and countryside and again seeing it from a completely different perspective.
So, for those of you that would like to increase your fitness whilst enjoying the scenery I would seriously recommend the NHS podcasts
If any of you decide to download the podcasts and give them a go, or any of you have already started or completed the nine weeks, I'd love to hear how you found it, and how you feel now :)

The painting continues............. We are now painting the exterior of the guesthouse and are surprised how much brighter it looks. Never ending. Once the exterior is finished we will be continuing on with the interior. Poor Old Tom, no rest for the wicked, lol
Another lovely cycle ride today from Todmorden, along the canal up to Hollingworth Lake. Actually this ride was with some friends so you can imagine........... we spent more time chatting when we stopped a couple of times than we did cycling! You have it do, ha. There was a little cloud initially which made it very comfortable whilst we were riding but we still managed to get back with red sunburned faces.
It really is a lovely lake with plenty of activities both on and off the water. We had our picnic at the Visitors Centre which offers a good selection of drinks, sandwiches, too nice cakes and ice-cream.
An excellent place to visit for a pleasant day out :)

Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, large open plan kitchen, diner and lounge. All modern fixtures and fittings, brand new carpets, extremely clean and modern throughout.

Many of the visitors to Rawtenstall arrive on the East Lancashire Railway . Run and operated by avid enthusiasts the railway station remains a focal point of our local town. And now they have an addition....................... The Rail Ale Trail now has a stop right at the end of the track here in Rawtenstall! The Rail Ale Trail takes you on a journey to discover some of the Irwell Valley’s most beautiful locations and exceptional pubs, all linked together by the railway. Whether you are an ale lover, cider afficionado or cream soda supporter, you will find something to suit your taste buds at every station along the route. Our latest watering hole opened just a couple of months ago and is already one of the most popular spots in town. Unless there is a special train due in, the bar closes at a respectable 8pm but, being open all day, gives you plenty of time to sample their excellent selection of guest ales. My particular favourite is the strawberry beer: oh so English sitting on the platform watching the steam trains come and go with my ever so English strawberries! The official grand opening is this coming Saturday, 27 July 2013, with Pete Waterman, a well known steam train enthusiastic himself, as the official opener :) I'm sure a great time will be had by all.
