The hidden Lake District ruin with romantic views two hours from Greater Manchester

The Lake District is widely known for being one of the most romantic locations in the UK. Its stunning scenery has inspired generations of writers and attracted visitors from across the world.

Hidden among the impressive fells and vast lakes are gems waiting to be discovered, from cascading waterfalls to magical grottos. Yet there’s one place which is particularly special, LancsLive reports.
