Transport & Travel

By Car to St Bees

From the South - Recommended, though longer route. Less scenic but faster (and less trying on those subject to travel sickness!) - continue on M6 to Penrith, then A66 to Cockermouth and A595 to Whitehaven. Follow local signs from there.

Alternate route from the South - M6 to junction 36 (South Lakes turn-off), A590 , A595 towards Whitehaven (Short-cut over Corney if adventurous - single track fell road) and then turn off at Egremont for St Bees. Avoid on Friday mid to late afternoon - a lot of works traffic heading home against you!

From the East - A66 to Penrith, then A66 to Cockermouth and A595 to Whitehaven. Follow local signs from there.

From the North and North East - Head for Carlisle (A69 from Newcastle way, A74(M) from Glasgow direction or A7 from the Scottish Borders. Then take the A595 to Whitehaven. Follow local signs from there.
