High Moss
The Hut has sleeping accommodation for 27 persons. The dormitory arrangements are adaptable and will cater for family groups and mixed parties.
To reach the Hut drive through Seathwaite and approximately 600 yards past the Newfield Hotel turn right at the signpost for Turner Hall Farm. In 100 yards a junction is reached. Continue straight on through the gate and do not turn right up the main track, which leads to the farmyard. Follow the track running across the fields through two more farm gates until High Moss is reached. Please ensure that all gates are closed after use.
