Easily achievable through the week in the winter mate when all the Manchester brokers who own glenridding and patterdale are at work if it’s the tourists that bother you pal , I know you like it up there, why not look at out west , 20 30 mins away are those seamless villages between cockermouth and Whitehaven that all run into each other , the nearer the coast you go the more likely you’ll fit in . In Kells or the moor is nearly mandatory to have a bull lurcher and a patterdale 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, I can agree with that mate. Loved Hawkshead when I visited (as a tourist ! Lol) People are f***ing normal up there, you can strike up a conversation with a stranger and they don’t think you want to kill them and take their wallet! Great call mate 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
