About this deal

The book was amazing. It was sad when Mrs Moon died. My favourite character was Stella. I would recommend this book for someone else.I wish I could go though the time tunnel. However it's probably worth the effort as it's the only lake in Snowdonia where power boats and water skiing are permitted. A great adventure with some danger as well as right and wrong dilemmas. The sibling protagonists are brave and true.

The Secret Lake by Karen Inglis | Goodreads

The Secret Lake is ideal if you are looking for a peaceful fishing holiday in France for either you and three friends or the whole family. It is easy to get to, just over four hours from Calais. After not being out for a “big walk” for a couple of weeks now, and the walks I have done have been shorter variations of previous trip reports, I decided it was time to reacquaint my legs with some walking action. This lake is found at the bottom of Cwm Idwal - a hanging valley located in the Glyderau mountain range. The Secret Lake is four and a half acres in size and has three small islands. You are able to access the lake the whole way around, giving you more options for fishing. The lake is about 3 to 8 feet deep with a hand full of weed beds across the lake. The bottom has a thin layer of silt with some gravel patches. Sorry Mel but we've got the ‘Biggest Oilseed Rape Field Ever’ in Suffolk!

This grainy snap is taken from a short vid I took. It was probably 20ft away from me. We just looked at each other then carried on our separate ways. No spooking, nothing. Lovely. What a fantastic end to a lovely walk Karen Inglis' 'The Secret Lake' is the an excellent adventure story for young readers. Siblings Stella and Tom live in a London flat with a shared garden. The garden is looked after by Charles, a stern man who often tells Tom off for digging. One day, whilst hiding from Charles, Stella and Tom come across an old boat buried in the soil and a mysterious ladder, leading deep into a dark hole. From then on, the two embark on an exciting quest which leads them to a secret lake in a time much different from their own. Stella and Tom must not only solve the mysteries they discover, but also save the friends they make along the way and, ultimately, try and find their way home. Who knew a book aimed at 8-11 year olds could move a 23 year old to tears? Neither did I but somehow it did! Maybe it’s a bit like the classic Disney films, although they’re mainly aimed at children, you get so much more out of them watching them as an adult. Quote: The Island was a cluster of four oak trees in the center of the garden skirted by rododendron bushes.If any changes are to be made to a confirmed booking are required, we will try to be accommodating as possible. Located in the Gwydir Forest, this lake covers an area of around 14 acres, at a height of 822 feet above sea level. Their quest to solve the riddle over the summer holidays soon leads to a boat buried under a grassy mound - and a tunnel that takes them to a secret lake. There were a couple of people sat on the log when I first arrived so I carried on a little way to the next view point:

Not a lot of choice for getting drinking water that tasted fresh unless you paddled out to the centre of the “lake”. Originally the lake was owned by a well-known fish farmer then made into a holiday setting by the previous owners.

The sun was shining, the birds were singing their beaks off. What’s not to like? Stretching almost a mile in length and covering around 45 acres, this lake can be reached from Trefriw or Llanrwst in the Conwy Valley - but it's not the easiest place to get to.

Who is the boy rowing towards them? Why is he so terrified? And whose are those children's voices carried on the wind from beyond the woods? So is Secret Lake a Lake or a Pond? I’m still not sure but when I searched pond vs. lake and found this helpful: “If the water is deep enough that light does not penetrate to the bottom, and photosynthesis is limited to the top layer, the body of water is considered a lake.” For more information… Quote from: vghikers on 11:44:14, 04/05/20 Another nice local walk and pics, the little lake is a picturesque surprise Quote from: rural roamer on 13:02:43, 04/05/20 Sorry Mel but we've got the ‘Biggest Oilseed Rape Field Ever’ in Suffolk!

The large bedroom upstairs has a double bed and triple bunk beds with beautiful views across the lake. You will just need to take your own bedding, towels and tea towels. I rented the 3bed room 2 bath for a weekend getaway with the family we loved it! Very spacious and clean. The area is close to many stores and restaurants. The only downside was the kiddie pool area. I don’t know what material was used to surface it but I skinned my knee and my poor son had scrapes on his hand. ” simplyjay1989 Beautiful It was not the best book I've read but it was ok. I love it most when Stella and Tom discover the tunnel to the secret lake. a) The balance of the cost of the holiday must be paid no later than 10 weeks before departure, or as specified if it is a late booking.
