I think this was one of the best Countrystrides I have listened to. The combination of history, skilled traditional craft, state of the art technology, recycling and wildlife restoration all in a rural location made it truly heartwarming and inspiring.
Apple Podcasts5J KWoodyUnited Kingdoma year ago - Super chill
I’ve been chain listening to this. I love the Lake District, despite being a Lancastrian, and this podcast is a little slice of Cumbria on a dull drive to work! Needs more puns from Mark 😂🙌
Apple Podcasts5JakJTBUnited Kingdoma year ago - Thank you…
for bringing to life the Lakes for a contemporary audience. I love how the history of the Lakes comes to life and captures the myriad of experiences, texture, beauty which is in essence about how people continue to recognize, appreciate and share in the awe and wonder of the natural landscape to nourish us all at a profound, mystical and spiritual level. The Lake District: we love you!
