YHA Cockermouth - North East Lake District.

Great location literally on the river cocker itself, driveway down to the converted mill is something like the Paris-Dakar, but its only about 300m
Perfect setting, very clean, cheap (£16) with all the facilities you want.
Pubs etc. only 800 yds up the road, run by top bloke (Ray), or cook your own stuff in the kitchen like I did.
Only about 15 miles from the coast ( if you don't want to do the lakes)
Great roads through the Lakes, then along the A684 through Yorkshire Dales, following the river.
I will be going again.
