In reply to Gone for good:
Windermere, Skelwith Bridge, Grizedale, Haverthwaite, Cartmel, High Newton, Witherslack, Crosthwaite, Staveley (stop for coffee at More bakery), Troutbeck, Kirkstone, down Struggle, Windermere.
Not quite sure of distance, but it will take you on some nice quiet roads and possibly showcase a part of south lakes you may not have visited. It’s easy to pimp if you want to add or subtract miles too.
FYI, the car ferry is not running currently
Whatever you decide, have a great ride!
