    Penrith leisure centre - great motorway stop-off

    Posted by hamletsghost 26 July 2011

    Penrith leisure centre is only five minutes off the M6, and a great break point if you're driving from Bristol to Scotland. After you've passed the wonders of Manchester, get out, throw the children and yourself in the pool, and return refreshed to the road.
