"It was great to be here .... This place is so magical. We"ve been for lovely walks in quiet places .... visiting Hermitage Castle, Lanercost Priory, Hadrians Wall, Smallholm Tower. It was all fantastic. The cloud formations are tremendous. The sky is changing every few minutes .... The light is playing a game and it is so magnificent. So, we love it here - we"ll be back! Thank you Cleughead!! 16th - 23rd May.
