DIRECTIONS
Hut Addresss is : 2 New Houses, Little Langdale, AMBLESIDE, Cumbria, LA22 9PB
Grid Ref: NY 315030
From Ambleside, follow A593 (Coniston, Langdale). At Skelwith Bridge, ignore signs for Great Langdale, continue for about a mile, then turn right for Little Langdale. On arriving at Little Langdale call in at the Three Shire Pub. Either Penny or I will have the key, I will post up what time we will arrive during the week.
Just after the Three Shires, turn left done a narrow lane. The lane descends, there is a sharp left, and then curves gradually round to the right. The cottage is the last cottage in a small, white painted row of terraced cottages, which is set at right angles to the road.
The cottages are the last building before the road deteriorates into a rutted track. If you get to the ford, you have gone too far.
For those who have not been there before the hut has a good size kitchen which is fully equipped with pans, crockery and cutley. The sleeping arrangements are bunkbeds, you will require sleeping bags and if you wish a pillow (or stuff sack). There are good showers and toilets. The nearest store is in Chapel Stile, so it is best to bring your food etc. with you. As a general rule we tend to go to the pub for evening meals, but facilities are there to be fully self catering.
