The English lake district is geographically diverse place with many small roads and backwaters not covered by any form of transport link other than the road. Busses and trains link the major towns but due to the counties low population density these tend to be the only repetitively frequent services with higher frequencies during the peak holiday season. out of season many services are less frequent or non existent. we would recommend a car but there is plenty to see and do using bus, train or better still the ferries that operate on the major lakes. Windermere is our closest station, often a change at Lancaster or Oxenholm is required as there are only a few direct services. A taxi is the best way to travel the last mile to Number18
