It used to be County Durham then they changed it to Yorkshire . Who knows it will most probably go back to Durham . Some great roads West of it . Its fun in the winter as they have there own snow mobile to get you in and out . The pub is also a B&B . You should have headed to Middleton in Teesdale and over the Pennine's ( stunning ) passed Kirby Stephen swing left for Reeth . Nothing for miles and miles but twisty roads and 3 ancient bits of once farms . But make sure you have petrol .

Made it out of Portsmouth, now heading out into the channel en-route for Santander. Wee car is feeling particularly wee, parked up amid the artics. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2019/08/31/Road-to-Caramulo-4174.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2019/08/31/Road-to-Caramulo-4183.jpg)

Made it out of Portsmouth, now heading out into the channel en-route for Santander. Santander? Northern Spain? Wow that's cool. If I had mine already I may join you! Northern Spain has beautiful roads to drive this missile… I don't know how many miles and which direction you want to make them on your road to Caramulo (I guess this is your Portuguese final destination), but if you're open to suggestions, in Santander, you shouldn't miss "Santillana del Mar", "Comillas", "San Vicente de la Barquera"; "Potes"; "Liérganes", etc. If you have the time and want to go further, drive along the coast to the West, to Asturias. So many amazing villages and roads to visit there too! Let me know if you want some advice! Heading South to Leon, if you plan to pass there, remember that Leon has the most beautiful cathedral stained glass windows in Spain. And in Jiménez de Jamuz, down in a cave - cellar, you have "El Capricho" that was recognized to have the best meat in Europe... If you're not vegan, you should stop there and try their meats, and don't miss the "cecina vieja". Take your handkerchief for the cry after the lunch. Unless you have your roadmap clearly pre-established, let me know and I can suggest you specific spots and places to pass-by adequate for such a nice Morgan drive. Best regards and safe road!
