 well first chester is not 5 miles from scotland
they can make it work by calling each other and contacting each other every day.
im in a LDR and my bf lives 200 miles away but we phone each other when ever we can we text each other like 30 times a day and talk on msn every second day we send each other letters and we both work overtime so we can visit each other at least once a month. doing this along with a huge amount of trust and love it will work.it working for me as me and my bf are getting engaged and im moving in with him after uni

 How did she meet him? She needs to continue to get to know him then maybe ask him down to see her. Scotland to chester is only 5 miles by car or 3 miles by train so it isn't that long. If he's keen he'll want to come and see her and if they still hit it off then she can go up to Scotland the next time to visit him! In between, they talk to one another on Skype (it's free) and they can put their web cams on too so they can see one another. It's the closest thing to actually being together.
Your friend would need to see how the relationship pans out, if it gets serious then maybe one of them could move to be with the other but it's early days yet. In the meantime, tell her to keep talking and finding out about each other and just see what happens.
Long distance relationships can work for a while but they are almost impossible to keep up after a while due to frustration and of course distance. The best thing would be for one to move to be with the other but as I said, see how things go first.
