| It's been a year since I did an 'off in red van on-me-own on a three day circle hunt. . ' type thing. So I'm off again next week. This time I'm targeting S/W Cumbria, somewhere I've never been ever. . I've seen Castlerigg and been to Long Meg several times on journeys North, but the whole of S/W Cumbria is unexplored ground to me. I plan to stop 3 nights in a b&b type pub, haven't decided where yet. Here's my tick-list. Seven Circles. Greycroft - the one by Selafield. Blakely Raise Sunenkirk Druid's Castle Burn Moore Swinside Lakra (Burl says these are 'for the true enthusiast'). Plus two 'possibles' Gamelands Hird Wood I think some of these are a bit of a walk, so I'm not going to put too many of my wish list. But perhaps I could add some? Have I missed out any 'must see' sites from that part of the country? I'll check the map browser and I've got John Waterhouse's 'Stone Circles Of Cumbria' and the usual Burl refrence books, but I always enjoy getting the 'hands on' on this forum. I took shitloads of TMA printouts with me to Aberdeenshire last June and they helped no end. What's Ravenglass like? All the sites I want to see are in a fifteen mile radius of Ravenglass. I could stop there. Are there any other nice coastal towns on that side of the country, where would you stop if you were seeing the above circles? B&B-wise. Me and camping don't get on! Bet it's great there.
