By public transport
The nearest station is at Maryport, four miles away. There is a bus about every two hours (no. 58 from Lawson Street, outside the Co-op, about 100 yards from the station which runs via Dovenby to Cockermouth) or taxis which need to be prebooked. Alternatively there is an hourly bus service from the west coast main line at Penrith Railway Station to Cockermouth Main Street (X4/X5), three miles away, where again you would need to prebook a taxi if it doesn't connect with the 58 bus. You can book through train tickets to Cockermouth. Transport direct gives more information about journeys and the National Rail site includes links for taxis. Let us know if you need more help.
When you arrive
Please report to MSport's security office at the entrance who will ring us. You can then drive straight down the road (for 0.4 mile) and park near the sign for MSport Reception. If you are walking take the first turn right after the security office in front of the hall and reception is in front of you just past the main door. Please go there and we will meet you.
