Scenic spot
👍👍 There is a car park found off of the main road. It's a national trust car park. If you're not a member you will have to pay either by phone or use the app. It cost me £4.50 for 2 hours. All around below there are smaller roads and people park along here, and this is the reason why. However, the car...

Derwent Dam Viewpoint
Scenic spot
👍👍 There has been a lot of effort put into pathways around the dams to ensure a lovely long and comfortable walk, and it's great for cyclists too. Dogs are welcome but must remain leashed at all times due to the livestock and wildlife. Beautiful scenery and many historical info boards and features dott...

Devil's Bridge

👍👍 Love it here. Can easily get down to the waters edge to go for a paddle on a sunny day. Massive field with plenty of picnic tables. Really nice walk along the river into Kirkby Lonsdale, nice little market town with quaint shops and pubs.

Penmon Point
Scenic spot
👍👍 Fantastic place been visiting here since a child. Small toll road to get to end. However we'll worth it. Could spend all day or just a short time choice is yours. Can get extremely busy in peak season and if weather is good. Small cafe at the end of the toll road with parking facilities. Just before...

Old Pale Hill
Scenic spot
👍👍 Beautiful, peaceful, tranquil and visually expensive. Easy accessible walk. I've seen old people, young people, hikers, walkers, runners, and everyone in-between up here. Plenty of seating but as it's a 360° view then it can get windy so bring a light jacket.

Llyn Padarn and Llanberis View Point
Scenic spot
👍👍 If you have a car, have mobility issues, or are short of time, you can still visit this viewpoint by driving and parking at Dinorwig bus terminus (search Google maps for Dinorwig Terminus, Caernarfon LL55 3ET), there is a layby there where you can park for free. The viewpoint is then an easy walk fr...

Helsby Hill
Scenic spot
👍👍 You park up at the car park for Helsby quarry. Short walk up a steep hill gets you into wilderness to explore. Further up and you are at the top with views of Cheshire and beyond overlooking Helsby. On a clear day, outlines of Liverpool cathedrals and the Welsh hills can be seen. Serene atmosphere....

Tyn-Y-Capel Inn & Restaurant
Pub
👍👍 Light and airy refurbished pub restaurant with a good varied menu, excellent food and service. We had Garlic mushrooms, Cauliflower steaks in a peppercorn sauce followed up with sticky toffee pudding with ice cream and wouldn't have changed a thing.

Ardsley Reservoir image

Ardsley Reservoir
Scenic spot
👍 There’s free parking for probably about 10 cars in a car park just off the reservoir. The walk takes about 20 minutes for one round, I usually walk two. You can get a pram / pushchair around here, I use an all terrain one, but any with good sized wheels would be fine.

Whitegate Station
Scenic spot
👍👍 Great little find, perfect pit stop on our bike ride and very dog friendly too (there were plenty of owners meeting to have some free training). Nice coffee, great looking cakes - although I didn’t have one, ‘coz I’m an athlete (honest!!). Will be making this one of my regular cycling routes. Than...

Ye Olde Punchbowl Country Inn & Gardens
Traditional restaurant
🫤 Went for Christmas dinner. Ambulance was good . Service was excellent But the food poor. Start was passable Main All the veg over cooked and like mush. The meats were also over cooked. Portion size is what you put on the plate. Xmas pudding very sweet.

Cwm Cynfal viewpoint
Scenic spot
👍 Beautiful views. There is a walk just slightly down the road through a gate to the Lake, though no proper path but eventually you get to the proper path. The gate to the proper path is locked but you could climb over. We couldn't as we had the dog with us who is too big to pick up. There was rubbish...
