Approaching Waterhead
DESCRIPTION

This jetty is in the grounds of the Waterhead Hotel, being at the end of their garden. It is an easy flat walk to the hotel (200yds).

There is car parking available at the hotel which is open for coffee, tea and light refreshments. Many of our groups book here for lunch or afternoon tea, and if you are thinking of staying in the area why not e-mail the hotel for their best prices or phone them on 015394 41244.

Just North of the jetty are two boathouses. It was from the stone quay upon which they are built that copper ore from the fells was shipped onto rowing barges and transported to the South of the lake at Nibthwaite.

THINGS TO DO

'Lakeshore' walk - To Coniston or Coniston Boatlandings.

Bus interchange with Stagecoach 505 service and the Cross Lakes Shuttle
