Just realised you're in the SW, thought you were Derbyshire(ish).
Thinking local(ish) to you; Longleat?

Nope! Not Longleat. Another worthy guess though.

Looks beautiful. You've maybe already been but I'd recommend a visit to Cesar Manrique's house.

Just chilling this week, Patrick, but thanks. I’ve been to the island a few times and done the sights. Visited that one twice.

Lovely not to see high rise hotels, Steve.
As before, have a great time.

The lack of high rise in Lanzarote has a lot to do with the influence of the aforementioned architect, Cesar Manrique. He was very much against the island being developed in that way. There is only one proper high rise building in Lanzarote, a modern hotel on the sea front in Arrecife. We went to the rooftop bar & restaurant the last time we visited the island, great views. I'd recommend to Steve if he has the chance to go.

Just guessing but that looks like it's about 250 ft wide. I'll let someone else answer.
