Lake Road (A5074) is the main thoroughfare linking Windermere with Bowness-on-Windermere.
Lake Road connects with the A591 to the north travelling through Windermere town centre approximately 800 metres away and also travels south connecting with the A592 and Bowness and Lake Windermere circa 1 mile away.
The Opportunity
