    There are some brilliant shots here that do the county justice in showing it to be not just a summer visit or a trip round a lake.

    Thanks! We both have a real passion for the place and there is SO much more to it than many people ever see. We're on a mission to spread the word!

    Beautiful pictures. I am so lucky to be living back in Cumbria after spending years in the concrete wilderness of the East Midlands.

    Thanks Sarah. My husband takes many of the pics. Cumbria is such a breath of fresh air in every single sense of the word.
