Description

Sykes family holiday in the Chapel Stile area of the Lake District. The family are seen walking in the Langdale Valley, and visiting the Ravenglass and Eskdale Miniature Railway - the smallest public railway in the world. There are brief views of a cottage being built, and the Sykes are seen walking by Stickle Tarn. The film ends with the four Sykes children in the park in Lytham St Anne's, apparently on their way to Harvest Festival.
