Directions
Travelling from the M6, exit at Junction 36 and take the A590 signposted for Barrow. Keep following signs for A590 Barrow for 23 miles.
On reaching the roundabout at Greenodd, take the first exit onto the A5092 which becomes the A595 at Grizebeck. Follow the A595 and signposts for Millom for 6.5 miles, then take the left-hand turn onto the A5093 just after St Anne’s Church, Thwaites.
Continue for around 2 miles through the villages of The Green and The Hill, and head downhill past Ghyll Scaur Quarry on the right-hand side. 0.25 miles after the quarry, before the road bends left towards Millom, turn right after a farm (Low House farm) on your right.
Follow this minor road uphill and just after the brow of the hill, turn right onto the single-track farm road (by a Public Footpath sign pointing uphill). Drive over the first cattle grid and continue slowly up the road and over a second cattle grid. When the road bends to the left, take the right fork (signposted to High Lowscales).
Continue uphill through a gate (please shut the gate) and drive slowly when approaching the blind hump. Continue past farm outbuildings on the left, over a third cattle grid and up to the property.
