The village was by-passed in 2008 enabling its return to a peaceful village at the head of the Cartmel Valley. If approaching from Grange take the first left off the A590 by-pass, at the first 'T' Junction turn right, then second left. After passing WRS Antiques take the fourth left into the village. Horse & Farrier Cottage can be found shortly on the left hand side. Situated within the Lake District National Park, on a bus route and approximately 2½ miles from the foot of Windermere Lake at Newby Bridge and with the M6 some 20 minutes easy drive away. The small town of Grange over Sands and Cartmel village are both close-by with the larger towns of Kendal and Ulverston approx a 20 minute drive away. All the attractions that the Lake District has to offer are within easy reach.
