To echo a previous comment.... Duddon Valley. It's 40min from J36, it's beautiful, quiet and everyone's polite (if you are). Accommodation, cafes, pubs and shop in Broughton... It was done as classic ride a few magazines back. They did not quite get it all right...(you can incorporate the netty bridge descent and loupe into long mire - which is dry - and not loose height for the main high kiln cross descent.. And do the stone star descent from almost the top of great Stickle ). Just done bother with Walna scar it's not worth it.... It's relatively low level, doesn't involve much hike a bike and is quite possible whatever the weather.... It's also still fun in the rain. Multiple classic Lakes rocky descents, high kiln cross to the pub (conviently placed at the base of the biggest descent, or on only a slight detour if you do the extended loupe), grass guards to wallabarrow traverse has excellent views, and the descent has a different, but still engaging character to high kiln cross. Stone star, Netty bridge (use the fireroad in the forest to get to the top).
