A string of small villages along the coast of Cumbria have been named as the most isolated place to live in the north west - and among the most remote in England.
Ravenglass, and surrounding hamlets of Eskmeals and Hyton, are far removed from the main tourist traps of the Lake District, making the quaint settlements a hidden gem.
The sandy shores of Ravenglass, around two-and-a-half hours' drive from Manchester, mean it's the only coastal village in the boundary of the Lake District National Park.
