popular tourist spots

UP NORTH


On the route home to the midlands we broke up the drive with a stop off at Morecambe Bay which was 1hour 30mins from Ravenglass and 2hours 40 from Nottingham. Whilst there we saw the The TERN Project, which is a Nature Trail to celebrate the birds and wildlife of Morecambe Bay featuring a series of sculptures along the promenade for you to discover. 

And of course had my photo taken with the famous Eric Morecambe statue. There is also a lovely panoramic sculpture of the mountains that can be seen across the way. 

The place was quiet, most things were shut, predominately as it was just out of the summer season and (again) we were in the middle of a pandemic (bloody COVID!) It's a very typical seaside town - chip shops, arcades, gift shops - so worth a visit if you are in the area, but personally, we wouldn't go out of our way to visit.
