Very tidy site (the showers look massive) and a very pretty area. Enjoyed the scenery on the drive and the views towards the end were stunning. Little Poppy certainly knows what 'dog wash' means lol. She is so cute.

Hi Bob, jenny & poppy. I enjoyed the tour of Ireland, so pretty there. Where you are now is very picturesque & lots of walks for poppy. I am so pleased both of you have this chance of travelling & of course it provides me lots to see on your journey. Have a lovely time. Lots of love Linda xx ❤

Not sure what dates you were there Bob, but we spent 4 nights on Maryport Marina last week, it was gale force wind and sideways rain pretty much every day, it was like trying to sleep in a washing machine LOL, beautiful part of the country though and wife`s family are there so gives us a good excuse to visit often.

We were at the Gretna Green food Hall today. The food was very bad and almost inedable, and expensive. You had the right idea making your own. 🙈😊

Smashing video production folks. Laugh when you mentioned water.😅 Some of the most pleasant, relaxing and beautiful places around. Cumbria, Penrith , Kendal, Kirby Stephen, Kiry Lonsdale and along the A66 tp Richmond and Barnard Castle. I would often travel across to Flookburgh Steam Traction, vintage and classic shows, unfortunately C19 had put red light for a time. The site looks amazing and the views spectacular. Enjoy the travel and stay safe.

Stayed at that site about 4 years ago when it was still called scotgate. The facilities were second to none and the building by reception was a cafe. Stayed at bracelands at Gretna last month thought it was a lovely quiet site nothing like a car park and lovely facilities.

Glad you didn't continue up to Whinlatter Pass - we did the same as you, but luckily in a car - but it was a wee bit "tight" in places, and if you dont like brick walls on both sides and a sheer drop and reversing I would suggest just taking the bike!! Love your videos - Many thanks for just being you - very informative xx

Great video. We know that area pretty well. Stayed in Thornthwaite nearby. (Boring alert) Did you know that Bassenthwaite Lake is the only "lake" in the Lake District? Thanks both.

Stayed there last year it’s a great site with stunning scenery although we did manage to get into the site first time without going round the houses🤔😂. The dog wash is amazing it’s the best one I’ve seen although the dog wasn’t that fussy for it but he did go in eventually.

Nice to see you back in the Lakes one of our favourite places to stay, you looked like you had a great time in Ireland but it didn't grab me at all, these videos do have positives for all viewers to help decide if places are worth visiting. I must say that this site looks immaculate and in a stunning area, we are not members of this club but might take a closer look at the NEC next week. Thanks.

You must have pulled off of an hour or so before we pulled on. In the mean time thanks, all the best for now, Tony and Julie.

You chaps arrived the day we left, after a wonderful four night stay. Half way though the video I was worried that you'd missed the other pub/hotel, so glad you didn't, courtesy of Bob's bike of course. I hope you both enjoyed a meal and a pint or two at the Coledale Inn. Good luck on your future travels both👍

We always stop at Gretna Green on our way up or back from Scotland. We did stay at Gretna Green campsite but it was awful! Like a car park, so wouldn't recommend it any time soon! Braithwaite looks really nice though, one to put in the book!

Another great video Bob and Jenny have enjoyed following your adventures have had many lovely visits to Dumfries and Galloway and Ayrshire where Victoria and I married in 2018 in Alloway which is home to Robert burns (if you are near Ayr its well worth seeing) we were due to visit last year but covid put pay Must go back up there again that site looks amazing and the scenery as well
