Castle Douglas

A very Scottish name

Broomsroad

Another carpark in the centre

Dumfries

Dumfries the town, on the banks of the River Nith. Significant in the lives of J.M. Barrie and Robert Burns.

Week 9

Lancashire, Cumbria and into Scotland

Castle Corner Campsite

Dumfries has at least two nearby provisions for Motorhome parking overnight.

Carlisle

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Caerlaverock

Another marvel on our doorstep.

A Carlisle Car Park

A great find when I was looking for somewhere to visit on the way up to Scotland. This car park is next to Carlisle Castle and has allocated spaces for Motorhomes.

Carlisle Castle 🏰

Spending the night so close…

Troutbeck Head Club Campsite

Beck - noun, North England: a brook, especially a swiftly running stream with steep banks.

The Puzzling Place

Another recommended visit. We’ve seen everyone else do it on instagram so we spent a wet afternoon exploring the illusions at the Puzzling Place in Keswick.

Derwent Pencil Museum

Hugely under sold, the Pencil Museum in Keswick is a humble place and definitely worth the trip.
