UK Round-trip Self-driving Tour D14: Pitlochry - Lake District

Today's itinerary: Pitlochry Town - Doune Castle - Stirling Castle - Hadrian's Wall - Lake District/Windermere Take a stroll around the town and canal before leaving Pitlochry. Then, drive for 1 hour to Doune Castle, a filming location for Game of Thrones. Stirling Castle is much larger than Doune Castle and is the oldest castle after Edinburgh Castle, well worth a visit. Hadrian's Wall is also an important historical site in the UK. Although it's a slight detour, it's worth a visit to see the mini Great Wall. Arrive at the Lake District at sunset and check in to the best located lakeside hotel - Macdonald Old England Hotel & Spa. The hotel has some history, but it's in the best location, close to the ferry terminal, and right on the lake.
