Tell us a bit about yourself and how you like to get outside?

Living on the doorstep of the Lake District, I love all things outdoors. From running, to mountain biking, and swimming. I love exploring new places, mostly with my Spaniel, Merlot, in tow.

What’s your favourite route or place to go and why?

Emily Cartigny’s Favourite Place – Ullswater

Anything around Ullswater. I’ve always loved this part of the Lakes, but it became extra special when we got married here in 2019.

What’s your fave bit of kit available on the OS Shop?

Every adventure is improved with a hot (or cold) drink, sat on a rock with a great view. So my favourite product would have to be the OS Lake District Thermal Bottle
