Travel notes:
Online maps and sat navs often suggest you go via Ambleside to get to Eskdale. Be warned
this route includes some of the steepest mountain passes in the Lake
District, single-track roads with 30% gradients and hairpin bends. Our
directions are much easier and more direct - we strongly advise you use
these.

follow the A590 west, signposted to the West Lakes. At Greenodd turn
right onto A5092. Join the A595 at Grizebeck and continue on this road
to Holmrook. From Holmrook turn east on to the B5344 and follow signs
for Eskdale Green. Journey time from J36 is approximately 1 hour 15.
