Parking Information for - Buttermere Village

Parking Details and Map
Nearest Post Code: CA13 9XA
Grid Reference: NY 176 317
Notes: Buttermere is a fairly small village and due to this finding a place to park can be difficult especially during the Summer months. There is free off road parking at the end of the Newlands Pass (right arrow) where there is room for around a dozen cars but being a popular area these spaces fill up quickly, parking here is free. The Fish Inn and The Bridge Hotel also have small car parks which are for patrons only. During busier months Syke Farm Campsite allows parking for non patrons but charges apply.
