a country mile

The phrase "a country mile" refers to an extended distance, typically much longer than a regular mile. It is used to emphasize the vastness or expansiveness of a distance or to describe something as far away or considerably larger than expected. The term likely originated from the perception that distances in rural or countryside areas appear longer due to the greater space and lack of urban development.
