The A66 provides good access to the nearby market towns of Penrith (10 miles to the east) and Keswick (12 miles to the west). Both towns cater well for everyday needs i.e. shops, supermarkets, railway stations and a wide variety of sports and leisure facilities. Those who wish to enjoy outdoor activities will find the Lakeland fells and Ullswater easily accessible.
