Follow the road NW from Bolam Lake for less than 1km then look for a fingerpost sign on the left side. Head up the road and then you will come to a parking area in a field just through a gate.

Thanks for checking out this place on the Fabulous North! I do enjoy a wander out in to the countryside trying to find hidden gems that not many people know about. You can't beat a rogue pele tower up a remote hill, a mysterious stone circle or a stunning waterfall secluded in a forest.
