Once you have left Windermere, you will drive through the heart of the National Park, beside the lakes and through the valleys, and on towards Penrith and the North of the country. The tour will continue into the remote Debatable Lands heading to Lanercost Priory, with time to visit the church built within the priory ruins. You will then follow Hadrian's Wall, past Mile Castles and Towers, to your lunch stop at The Roman Army Museum. After lunch, you will visit Vindolanda, a Roman auxiliary fort and settlement.
