Day 8

Back in England after 7 days, we drove today to the Lake district just south of Glasgow.
The precise extent of the Lake District was not defined traditionally but is approximated by the boundary of the National Park, the total area of which is about 2,292 km2. The Park extends just over 52 km from east to west and nearly 64 km from north to south, with areas such as the Lake District Peninsulas to the south lying outside the National Park.



  
It was nice to be back on 2 lane roads and just enjoying driving with open top. After some 300 miles we arrived in Little Town´s little farm, where we going to spend the night. The B&B we stay today has been transformed from a stall.


The owner of the farm had extensive graze lands with sheep and horses, almost the whole valley belonged to the farmer. We walked around the farm and went later by car into the next valley to have some dinner. It was 10 miles drive to go the closest village and its pub.
