If your up that way. We have spent the night on the beach there on many occasions. Sign says no overnight parking but we have never been stopped. Tide won't bother you and beautiful views.

Where is Gregg when you need him.

Gregg, tried looking up said location, I can only find Silverdale in Lancashire.

Can you or anyone else pin-point the location please.

Deker.

Thanks LKG

Is that the beach, off Lakes Road, Workington Question

Just South of the Derwent estuary.
Bit too close to town for my liking.

Lori sez

I was up there last year, on my way to Scotland.
Your'e right about the views, across the Solway Firth to Dumfries.

Hi Deker, i think that the post code is probably the area Gregg was on about, it's at the begining (or end Smile

) of the Cumbria costal way so probably counts as being in Cumbria even if it's a Lancashire post code.

Chris

All is clear now, thanks folks.

I now know why Gregg said it is in Cumbria.

Last time I was up that way = 1997, on me bike, with a friend.
We both liked the ride up the A6 through Morecambe and Carnforth, on our way to the Lakes.

Even nowadays, 13 years later, we still remark how nice the area around Carnforth is,
fond memories. Must go that way again.
