How to get there! -- the hard
way |

"Beside
Tarn Hows - accessed by a walking track"
{JRS nfo} "I never found the cottage
in June 2007. I found
these signs and tried this path but eventually turned back"
{Jan Tarrant
writes}"Rose Castle cottage is situated
on the high land to the east of Tarn Hows."
{Ronald and Sandra Kok write}
"This year we looked for Rose Castle Cottage and
found it. It is situated on the path which you
gave directions for. We followed the whole
path and climbed over the footpath fence and followed the foot track.
And there it was standing on top of the hill.
What a surprise to see a car at the back of the house
and a two wheeltrack "highway" which comes from the disabled parking at
the road side."
I tried it myself again on June 6, 2017 but had to give
up after 35 minutes of difficult paths in the wet. I returned to my car
...and tried another route (below)

How to get there! -- the
easy way
You can park at the
National Trust Car Park for Tarn Hows. Walk along the road to
the east until you see some disabled parking places (which you could use
of you have a Blue Badge). The track goes to a 5 bar gate which is
labelled to Rose Castle Cottage. The walk is not very steep. |
