Getting About

The Cross Lakes Shuttle
Linking Bowness, Near Sawrey, Hawkshead, Grizedale and Coniston, The Cross Lakes Shuttle operates in conjunction with Windermere Lake Cruises, Stagecoach and Coniston Launch. With ferries linking regularly from Bowness to meet the shuttle bus on the west side of Windermere this a great way to explore Beatrix Potter Country. Stop off at Near Sawrey to visit Beatrix Potter’s home, Hilltop, explore the delightful village of Hawkshead with its charming shops, beautiful church and the Beatrix Potter Gallery, enjoy a walk at Tarn Hows, "England’s most beautiful view", cruise on Coniston Water or maybe even mountain biking in Grizedale Forest.

Your Shuttle Ticket gives unlimited travel for a day, so buy a Long Stay car parking ticket, then ask the Shuttle driver for your discounted shuttle ticket and use it as often as you want to get about the area.

Alternatively the Shuttle also serves Windermere Rail Station, so why not give your car a day off and come to Bowness and Windermere by public transport?
