How to find us

Travelling from M6 Junction 40 (at Penrith). Take A66 signposted Keswick for 1 mile and then take the A592 signposted Ullswater for 4 miles. Turn right when you see the lake in front of you, still on the A592, signposted Windermere.

After approximately 1 mile, you will see the Brackenrigg Inn on your right hand side, there is a road to the right directly after the Inn. Drive up here for 1 ½ miles. Then you will see The Quiet Site on the right hand side. Turn right and book in at the shop.

If your caravan or motorhome is very large, please ignore the Brackenrigg Inn turn. Instead, continue on to the next right turn, which is by the bench and post box.  Turn right here and follow the lane up the hill past the church and take the first turn on the right. The site is on the left.

Please drive slowly.
