View of Morecambe Bay from Cartmel Fell

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

The road winds its way up and down, protected by a roof of leaves, trees and ramparts. From time to time you have a view of the ridge just a few kilometers away.

The Mallard Tea Shop

Highlight • Cafe

An ace little cafe stop in Cartmel that's well worth a stop by and wonderfully cyclist-friendly. It's named after the ducks on the nearby River Eea that are always looking for crumbs!
