Sister treats me to ANOTHER LUXURY hotel! // This time, Forest Side in Grasmere, the Lake District!

Hey Folks,
I hope you guys and girls are doing well and that you're all okay!
A couple of weeks ago, my little sister Hannah (who works as a content editor for a magazine which means her role involves reviewing hotels, B&Bs, restaurants, bars etc so she can write about them!) invited me to a luxury hotel.
We were supposed to stop at this one first - Forest Side in Grasmere and then move on to Hipping Hall the next night as a double whammy.
Trouble is, there were water issues out side of the Forest Side's control so we just went to Hipping Hall... WELL... the problem was sorted and we went to Forest Side so Hannah could complete her review for the mag!
Like the last one, I decided to vlog - this time on the wonder GSXS1000GT, a bike that I became very very attached too!
Anyway, if you watch until the end, thank you for tuning in and I hope you enjoy it!

Great vid, a bit of everything, food, bikes and the lakes. Thanks for posting, brilliant channel 👍👍

[@UsernameKate]

Thanks Steve 😊

[@johnimmins7302]

The wife and I loved this one, I wish I had such a lovely sister treating me to such luxury..Trouble is, I wouldn't know which piece of cutlery to use first.. LOL

[@jameshutchins3396]

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for taking us along. You have a wonderful balance in these videos of family, roads, countryside, unique places with just a touch of poverty sux thrown in. I truly look forward to all that you post. Bless you and thank you

[@grossi46]

"This is not only fans Hannah" 🤣🤣. Love these sister vlogs 💖 👌

[@chorseundgrd]

The food is always so tiny, but the presentation on the plate is beautiful. Great vlog Kate. Gets me inspired to get some touring planned.

[@UsernameKate]

Yay!! Glad you're making some cool plans 😊👍🏻

[@Ridewithunicorn]

Very tiny😢

[@grast961]

What a great weekend treat, using the GT for what it designed for and even though it was wet, you got to enjoy the scenery and roads around the lakes.

[@Sergio-pe4gz]

Lovely bike, hotel and riders!!! 👌🌹😊

[@AmiJurgl]

Well, I purty near busted my yolk too! Just this one life to live.. it'll have to do. Thanks ladies for bringing us along..

[@keitht3055]

That meal looks amazing, it's great what you can get for £20! 🤣. You are a very lucky girl to have such a lovely sis. I bet Mike would have fired that food on one plate and destroyed it. 😂. I'm going up that way tomorrow but, I'll be dining on Tesco buttys and a packed of crisps! Lol. Keep up the good work Kate and, enjoy yourselve.

[@nowt835]

Cool! That was great - reminded me of being on holiday!

[@myronhorvathsk]

Awesome! You guys seem to have so much fun together❤. But damn it Kate I almost had coffee coming out my nose when you told your sister that you were stalking her ass😂

[@UsernameKate]

🤣🤣🤣

[@lpete531]

That disks with the egg yoke running out, no no 🤢🤦🏾‍♂️🤣 i enjoy your sister invite to the high end hotel and fine dining , but I'm still very hungry 🤣 Nice video, be safe 🙏🏾

[@Peakwanderer]

I'll have the Master suite on a Saturday night and 8 course meal for a bargain £589. Actually on second thoughts maybe not. Interesting all the same so thank you for taking me along with you and the Lovely Hannah :)

[@EpicAdamMotovlogs]

This just reminded me about the time I had large fish & chips then got invited for a free 8 course meal afterwards. I was stuffed 😆 The food looked great in this video.

[@UsernameKate]

😂😂😂

[@ZafarSami65]

Another video with UsernameSis. Nice. She does have a great job which allows you visit such nice places.

[@stephenpotts8170]

Hi Kate, what a lovely place, I think I might book a few nights stay for me and my dear lady, if I can rake up the pennies. And I think you could have a travel writers vlog as well as the bike stuff, really enjoyed the video. Thank you.

[@deanruse5712]

Another great vlog. ‘What have we got Hannah?’ ‘Can’t really remember what he said’. Made me chuckle 😀

[@LickyDischarge]

Loved this upload Kate! Really like the bike as well, definitely one I’d consider owning.

[@norriemasson4080]

Fine dining at its best, look forward to your next night away with Hannah, the bike looked well

[@trevormartin5459]

What a fantastic place Kate.Hannah was great.You certainly didn't go home hungry.

[@ragerider6283]

Very cool & interesting vid. It's nice to see some variety on a dedicated channel from time to time so don't be afraid to mix it up & be different.

[@UsernameKate]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@michaelskinner896]

Beautiful setting and that room was killer! So glad you did another vlog like this and it was great to see Hannah again.

[@UsernameKate]

Thanks Michael! Hannah is a gem. The room was killer!!! So nice!!! 😫❤️

[@adaptableadventurerider]

Wow that is one cool place!! Awesome video as always Kate :)

[@ChrisMcEvoy72]

Great vid. Very posh. I feel there needs to be a regular feature with its own catchphrase call "Right Hannah, what have we got?" 🤣

[@matthewfrancis8825]

The Lake District any time of the year is such a blast one of my fave biking places apart from the Yorkshire Dales and it is great to see you and your sib together. Have fun, Matt.

[@UsernameKate]

Cheers Matt! And yea I agree! Tbh I like it at Christmas as well, little towns full of lovely Christmas lights - very atmospheric 😊

[@nigeltankard6977]

That place looked amazing, great views and beautiful food. You and your sister are so good together. Bring on the next vlog with Hannah

[@UsernameKate]

I cant wait for the next hannah vlog either! 😍

[@Sharpey76.]

Loved it! Keep up the great work! :-)

[@allanmason7544]

Thoroughly enjoyed that🐊. Well done. Your relationship with Hannah is obviously based on mutual antagonism and disrespect 🤪. Looks like you both had fun. Ride safe.

[@tedsalmon2533]

What a beautiful spot Kate! If I didn't live 4000 miles away I'd visit soon.

[@dylanrichards9984]

That breakfast looked outstanding 👍

Oh same Nigel, it was wonderful.

[@pollekepmtb]

That was a fantastic vlog. I am completely calm en submissive and ready for the weekend thanks for that. I hope you had a dry ride home. Wish you a nice weekend 👍🇳🇱

[@UsernameKate]

Haha the ride home was bloody terrible 🤣 went back via 'the struggle' you know a road is gonna be trouble with a name like the bloody struggle 😬🤣

[@motogordo1903]

These travel vlogs are quickly becoming some of my favorite videos of yours.First thing I’d have done after that cold ride would have had a proper soak in that tub. 😶‍🌫️ Hannah is just as lovely as her big sis.

[@TheBez1965]

Very nice hotel,, great vid once again

Cheers Bezza! 🍻

Can't beat a good Yorkshire Ham eggs and chips.

[@headrace4863]

…beats a travelodge and a McMuffin I guess. Ooooh get you two lol. Enjoy! 👍👍

[@56Spookdog]

Such a storybook town and lodging, Kate do kind of take towns like for granted or do you still appreciate them. Born and raised in San Francisco the things tourist come to see I generally buzz by them occasionally appreciating the beauty. The food presentation was outstanding, the duck confit 👍👍 and the desserts would probably the limit of my palate but some others looked tempting. Once again the dynamic duo came through to make delightful video.

[@UsernameKate]

Oh I defo appreciate them. I'm the type of person to be delighted when the sky is pink in the evening lol easily pleased ☺️

[@sonkaldo]

Another enjoyable video.♥️🇦🇺

[@UsernameKate]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@colmanmurphy963]

Ye were in the lap of luxury there. You put those panniers to good use. You don’t travel light. Nice to meet up with the sister and pamper yourselves. Ye will definitely be on the treadmill after all those courses.

[@nickclarkuk]

I just checked out the prices on Forest Side hotel website. Yeah I’ll stick with Airbnb sharing a bathroom with some randoms 😂. Your sis is lovely .

Great little getaway! You two beautiful girls make the views look ordinary 💋

I am so jealous!!

[@gm4551]

Wonderful, I love trips away vlogs!😊 I also really like cosy nights in at home vlogs. I love to see the preparation whether it's with food or just laying out some little snacks and nibbles, drinks, lighting candles or soft lights, chatting, just having a nice cosy evening in together. If you have nights like this with Hannah, maybe you could do a vlog!❤️

[@UsernameKate]

Noted Gill 🥰

I doing casual waitress work for big events and see some amazing food but unfortunately I can't eat it 😳because I have IBS it is lovely to watch the chief to put it together for the host 😊

[@johnpaterson4163]

lol you should write hannah’s reviews Kate, my mouth was watering listening to you describing the food, didnae need a video, audio would have sufficed lol. great vlog enjoyed.

[@davericketts9101]

Not quite your average `bike stop`. The ones I stop at, normally have a counter about shoulder height with tomato sauce and mustard to go on the burger and some sugar to go in the mug of coffee 👍. No 12.5% service charge either. Nice video, lovely banter.

Why are they like this!! Haha

[@garthwaters5756]

awesome , loved it :-)

[@UsernameKate]

Glad you loved it 😊

[@tonygriffiths2485]

That is some treat. Do you buy her the odd Rolls Royce now and again ? The breakfast looked lovely, but there wasn't much of it. Fine dining has lots of courses, they looked lovely, but a plate of pure beef dripping cooked Haddock, chips and mushy pease for my choice. The surroundings looked lovely. You could sit at the window and enjoy it for sometime. Something different, thanks :) Love the bike.

[@UsernameKate]

Hey Tony, the surroundings where gorgeous. And yes, I like my big plate of grub but nice to sample food like this as its something I'd never done before hannah invited me on these trips 😊

[@richardsracingmad]

The absolute worst Cinema used to be in Barnstable ( I think it was there), most of the flip up seat rows had collapsed ( limited seating if you actually wanted to see the film…a musty smell wafting in the air…it was hilarious but I can never remember the film, it was the Event not the film….😅😂

[@ianfrancis9352]

Glad it was 8 course menu as the portion size looked quite small!!

[@UsernameKate]

Me too!!!

[@mysterybiker1717]

Have stayed there before, awesome restaurant and grow much of their own food on site, michelin star rated, must go back sometime.

[@UsernameKate]

Yes! I love the story behind everything being locally sourced from the pottery, food even the shower gels and stuff!

[@simonchilli2088]

The food looked confusing with so many combinations. I did laugh when you showed the full English. A very small English that would be ok for my 89 year old father in-law.

[@kennethszpindor1723]

Well Kate you could have taken a Puck with for the suzy but anyway what fabulous place to posh for me lol has your sister ever stopped at the Swinton Park Hotel near Masham the posh food looked to good to eat I will stick to fish and chips lol

[@markjosephbudgieridgard]

Ahh princess UNK that was lovely I really enjoyed it you and hannah have a fantastic relationship... The hotel and surroundings where just beautiful although the food isn't really my cup of tea to fancy for me 😀.... Now a huge dinner plate of chips, steak n kidney pie, mushy peas smothered in gravy, a pint mug of builders brew tea and apple crumble would suit me better 🤣.... If I won the lottery and became a multi zillionair I wouldnt buy a house I just take up residence in a posh hotel like that 👍..... I know when mick jagger split from Jerry Hall he left the marital home and took up residence in clarages Hotel in London that's pretty kool..... Hope hannah invites you to more fancy pants hotels these type of vlogs would be very popular makes a change.... Well done Lass what a great lille old channel you have.... ❤️ Budgie... Oh Kate I had to say goodbye to my beautiful boy fang the cat after 15 years with me he died peacefully in his sleep thank god.... So sad... RIP fang he had the best life 😺

She's brilliant 🥰

[@millinutz]

At first glance, K & H could be twins. But they're not, so reckon their parents used the same mould when forming them! Nice "lil hut", but when in the Lake District, then you should have at least a view out over a Lake. Oh well, I suppose it was a freebie..., so no hassels. Bet you had even better times off camera. Yeah Kate, this was a year ago, you've probably even forgotten about it but I still had the urge to comment on it. Very much my style here, can't beat an old English mansion type house..., such a shame my tastes don't match my wallet😟, but then again, would I be happier than I am now!

[@KRAM-zb2vc]
