>where would you stop if you were seeing the above circles?

The Old Dungeon Ghyll in Langdale. Offers the chance for a quick visit to the Axe factory and the Langdale Boulders (if you're that way inclined). It's not really close to any of the places on your list, I really only mention it as the odg has oodles of character, and is in a high quality bit of Cumbria.
