Workington

Directions

The road from Cockermouth to Workington follows the course of the Derwent via Papcastle, following the C2C in reverse, with the river on your left.


About 4km beyond Great Broughton is Camerton. At the Black Tom climb up to the right and at the old stone bridge hang a left onto the cycle track that takes you to Workington via Seaton. Again, be warned the map, right, shows the route coming in from the north, which is at the bottom.

Right at the start of the C2C and close to the finish of the Reivers, the Morven is relaxed and well fit for purpose. All bedrooms are en-suite, comfortable. Large detached house with car park and secure cycle storage. You can leave your cars until you return if you wish.
