Countrystride #51: Skiddaw House - Loneliest house in England

...in which we enter wild country at the Back o'Skiddaw to visit Skiddaw House - the loneliest house in England. As we wander, with former wardens Martin Webster and Marie-Pierre Gaudez, we talk through the history of the one-time hunting lodge, learn about the icy perils of Whitewater Dash, discuss the off-grid practicalities of living and working four miles from the nearest road – and discover what it takes to turn a House into a home. Skiddaw House can be found and booked online at www.skiddawhouse.co.uk John Martin's excellent history of Skiddaw House, The Loneliest House in England, is available by emailing the author at [email protected].
