Alien Jelly Discovered in the Lake District by Lovetoescape Members

Alien Star Jelly Photo © Rob Shephard

The owner of a holiday cottage in Patterdale and the owners of the Patterdale Village Store are at the centre of a growing story around the strange alien star jelly that has been appearing around the Patterdale area in the Lake District.

The strange substance has been spotted on the fells around Ullswater, including on Place Fell, Raise and Helvellyn. Scientists are currently examining a sample taken and will hopefully be able to find out whether it really is "of this earth", astral deposits from meteor showers, or some other alien phenomena. Find out more here on the Lake District Alien Jelly.

 

 
 

Holiday Accommodation in the Lake District

The Lake District, also known as The Lakes or Lakeland, is a rural area in North West England. A popular holiday destination with a great range of holiday accommodation, it is famous for its lakes and its mountains (or fells), and also its associations with the early 19th century poetry and writings of William Wordsworth and the Lake Poets. It was also the inspiration for Beatrix Potter. For more information please visit the Lake District National Park website.
