Road trip through 3 counties

Day 31
Road trip with Chris Evans through 3 counties: Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cumbria, and the M61 car park, to the Lakes.

Lunch at The Queens Head Hotel, Troutbeck- a haunt of ours from the past with its four poster bed bar- little bit posher than we remembered but it has had a complete restoration since a fire 4 years ago and only reopened earlier this year.

Stop at Kirkstone Pass Inn- a 15th century inn 1489ft above sea level, Ambleside for afternoon tea of blueberry scone with jam and cream and a mooch around Bowness on Windermere. We even managed to find the little hotel that we honeymooned at 26 years ago.

Returned to make dinner for Hayley and Simon and introduce them to chevapchichi.Read more
