Terminus and then turn left at Brook House Inn.
- Go to the end of the road and there are four terraced houses
opposite the Boot Inn - No. 3 is in the middle.
- Parking is on the road in front of the house - if for any
reason there is no available spaces, you should be able to park
at the pub but please ask first.
Please note: if you have satellite
navigation, the recommended route often appears to be over Wrynose
and Hardknott passes which can be very lovely but are incredibly
steep (England's steepest road with gradients of up to one in three),
windy and narrow. Following this route is shorter in distance but
certainly not quicker than the directions shown above.
