This means that ALL holiday clients will need to go round the lake if they are arriving for 3pm. Therefore they will need to follow the A66 heading west. At the end of the average speed section you will find a right hand turning for Castle Inn follow signs for Castle Inn.

Go over the bridge at the top of the lake.

At the crossroads with the Castle Inn on your left turn right. Follow the road (passed the garage Skiddaw Service Station (on left ) and after about 300 yards turn right at the crossroads for Scarness.

Follow the road to the T junction and turn right.

The park is approx. 400 yards on your left.



This most probably going to cause mayhem but thought to get the info off to you so that holiday clients are aware.
