Please note that The Old Vicarage is situated in a rural village in the North Lakes, and rural roads into and around Lorton often remain untreated in wintery conditions, we therefore advise all of our guests to take care when travelling to the area, especially when temperatures outside are low.

Whilst the Whinlatter Pass from Keswick offers spectacular views in fine weather, we would advise against using this route in wintery conditions, and instead would recommend that guests continue along the A66 into Cockermouth, and follow the directions above from Cockermouth into Lorton.
