    Are you only weekend trip or little bit longer sightseeing?

      The eastern part of  Cumbria - such as Talkin and Geltsdale is close to where i live in Tyneside.
       I went there yesterday with my wife, for a walk  in the afternoon/early evening.
      It is about 1 hour 15 minutes away.
      And, incidentally - I occasionally think about how this part of England is the narrowest part of Britain ; (just about).
      It is only about 90 miles (145 kilometres) between the north Sea and the Irish Sea, at our latitude.
      The famous area of Cumbria, the lake district, is a longer journey - at least 2 hours away - and i will very rarely, if ever, go there on a "day trip".
      So - now you know.
