"This is Rannerdale Knotts, a mountain in miniature, and a proud one. Not even Gable has witnessed a real battle! And, what's more, our side won!!"
A Wainwright

The lowly ridge of Rannerdale Knotts rises above Buttermere and Crummock Water, enclosing the picturesque valley of Rannerdale from the main valley, making a fine low ridge, connected to the foot of the Whiteless Pike ridge just above the village of Buttermere.

The Rannerdale Valley was the setting for a historic battle, where Norman invaders were ambushed and repelled by the English. Rannerdale is now known as the Bluebell Valley, each year in sprint the valley is carpeted with bluebells, visible from the surrounding summits.

        Rating:
        Really grateful again for excellent guiding in beautiful places . I did the Welsh Walking Weekend in quite good weather (for Wales!... meaning winds up to 80mph precluded Crib Goch(definitely a good call! ) ). Rob, our guide was kind, thoughtful and encouraging to all the group and his confidence was such that I felt able to play and free range on the scrambly bits of Tryfan and the Snowdon Horseshoe whilst feeling safe (a perfect scenario ) Ellen's assistance on the Tryfan day was an added bonus. I have been so impressed by this company ..thank you . Clare
