A MOTHER who takes her son to school on the Windermere ferry has won a photo competition with her picture of the "school run".

Andrea Meanwell's stunning photo of Windermere from the Glebe, showing a cloud inversion below the snow-capped Fairfield Horseshoe, was judged the best by the Cedar Manor Hotel.

Owners Caroline and Jonathan Kaye organised the contest to search for the most unusual view of the lake.

Mr Kaye said: "We wanted to see some shots of Windermere that were a little out of the ordinary.

"We had some wonderful entries from many talented photographers, though not all of them were quite different enough."

Mrs Meanwell, a mother-of-three has won a two-night stay at the hotel.
