Looks a bit like somewhere in the Lake District (not Coniston or Windemere though)

Yes, and with the help of attached photographs can someone get more specific?

Google is my friend.

I am pretty sure it's Tal-y-lyn Lake in Mid Wales.
It looks like the Yn'n-y-Cornel Hotel.

Link one (http://images.google.com.au/imgres?imgurl=http://www.flyfishwales.co.uk/tynycornel.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.flyfishwales.co.uk/talyllyn.htm&start=171&h=240&w=320&sz=23&tbnid=4UsBuwd4BK_iJM:&tbnh=89&tbnw=118&hl=en&prev=/images%3Fq%3DWales%2Blake%2Bhotel%26start%3D161%26gbv%3D1%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26newwindow%3D1%26safe%3Doff%26sa%3DN%26as_qdr%3Dall&um=1)

Yes Spot on.

Lovely place in Wales especially when the sun is out and great for trout fishing as well.

/me takes bow.

I had three hints: lake, hotel, Wales.
I used the PicLens (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5579) plugin for Firefox (alternative to Internet Explorer) and was able to scan hundreds of photos in under a few minutes. It took me about 3 minutes to find it.

(Piclens takes images from multiple websites then displays them like a wall of photos you can just "walk" along until to find what you want without needing to open the websites.)

The real question is, why does jow104 want to know? :)

Wayfarer I got this warning when I tried to download the plug in.

http://shell.windows.com/fileassoc/0409/xml/redir.asp?EXT=xpi

Will it load if I try it from firefox. I am a windows xp user.

Try installing it from within firefox. The warning message is just saying it doesn't know what type of file it is. Microsoft doesn't like firefox because it's a competitor that can't be bought so it doesn't associate the piclens file extn with XP (Or Vista)
