| CMC Club Hut |
|
Beautifully situated in the remote Newlands Valley, yet thirty minutes drive from Keswick, at O.S. Grid Ref. NY 229 177. Reached by driving or walking the last mile along an unsurfaced track, the hut sleeps 16 and has gas cookers and lighting. One of the most attractive features is the coke pot-bellied stove. Cold water supply fresh from the fells above the hut and a flushing toilet. Facilities are both basic and appreciated by those wishing to get away from it all. |
