Planning a Trip

Getting There

Trains from London's Euston Station do not go directly to Kendal; seven daily trains arrive in Oxenholme, about 2.5km (1 1/2 miles) away. From here, you'll be able to take a cab or board one of the local trains that leave approximately every hour to Kendal proper (trip time from Kendal to London: 3 1/2 hr.). For information, call tel. 0845/748-4950 or visit www.nationalrail.co.uk.

To Kendal from London by bus, take one of the three daily National Express buses (trip time: 7 hr.). For schedules and information, call National Express at tel. 0870/580-8080 or visit www.nationalexpress.com.

If driving, take the M1 out of London, and then the M6 to Kendal (trip time: 5 hr.).

Visitor Information

The Tourist Information Centre of Kendal, Town Hall, Highgate (tel. 01539/725758), is open Monday to Saturday 9am to 5pm.
