The Penrith area is lovely.  High ropes - uuummm  ???

June in Scotland, The Borders, : Hadrian's Wall?  We stayed on a Farm which was the first camp that Baden Powell took boys to camp.  If I could remember the name I could share it with you  :D

Anxiety rears it's head even thinking about going away  :'(.  I need to see a friend but I haven't been able to pick a date yet  :'( and that's to go to her house for 3 hours and back here.

We have booked Centre Parcs Penrith for Feb . Meeting up with friends who have just had a baby (He is in his late 40s! Respect!).
At least there will be warm water to wallow in and they have a nice outdoor pool, lit at night. I can do some jogs around the woods. Am doing high ropes challenge with my son.  Still thinking about June... thanks for all your suggestions. I am yearning for sunshine at the moment.
My neck of the woods. Not sure if you will have children with you but if you do a visit to Lowther Castle would be an enjoyable option. They have built a huge wooden castle in the grounds for the kids and it is amazing

After my disastrous attempt at a solo holiday alone pre-Christmas (Weeks Yoga & meditation retreat only 2 hours away. I only lasted 19 hours!) my DH has suggested I visit by cousin in Bournemouth  for a couple of days or have a week chilling in the Canaries. I would have been excited about this 10 years ago but in the last 6 month there is a definite loss of nerve. Will I sleep? What if I panic? etc etc rather than ' Make mine a large one' .    It's bonkers.   I took a year off to backpack round Asia alone at 28. I could sleep anywhere, eat anything, talk to anyone.   There must be a market for Peri/Meno holidays - we could be one big understanding mess of 24/7 neurosis.  I really sympathise  CLKD. I'm sure once you are there you would be fine but there is the ' getting there' too.   :-\

I want to get home at the end of the holiday to know whether I've enjoyed it or panicked that not's the way to look forwards.  For me it's physical.  Once that nausea kicks in I am away home.  I am better if alone 'cos I don't have to explain myself.  I can come and go, stay in bed or a deep bubble bath without justifying myself.

Would a trip to Bournemouth help, my cousin wants to 'meet up' but that means making plans  :'(
