To wet your appetite and have something to look forward to in these gloomy winter days!!

 

 

Join us and enjoy 130 miles driving around the spectacular Lake District National Park and 135 miles through the beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park. There are no timed meeting points during the days, so if you want to stop off for a walk or visit somewhere enroute - the choice is yours to enjoy the areas as you want to. 

 

You are at liberty to choose which day to explore the Lakes and which day you explore the Dales.  We will split into small groups to make keeping together easier and exploration less stressful - More time to enjoy the views rather than worrying about where the car behind has gone!

Last years tour was fully subscribed quickly so early booking is advised once again for this years event.

 

 

Driving days are Monday 15th and Tuesday 16th June 2026.  we'll head off from the hotel at 9am each day. If you're travelling from a far I would recommend that you book accommodation for Sunday, Monday & Tuesday to make the most of the wonderful roads and scenery. Route books will be supplied and  Sat Nav routes for single drivers will be available. 

 

Base will be Travelodge Kendal Town Centre as it has covered secure parking.

Kendal LA9 7FW

Phone: 0871 984 6571

 

There are two Travelodge Hotels in Kendal so please be careful when booking!!

Adding breakfast to your booking isn't necessary as you can pay on the day. Many choose last year to have breakfast at Wetherspoons and there was plenty of choice for evening meals in town.

 

We've planned for 20 cars again this year.

Can I tag along without staying over? It's only 2hrs from me so can pop over and grab breakfast before setting off? 

 

Have you an idea of the route? Or is it in the pages of the chat I've not seen yet?
