By car

From Bath: Take the road out of Bath towards Lansdown and the M4, up the hill bearing left at St Stephen’s Church and on to the top of Lansdown.  Continue past the Park&Ride, the Blathwayte pub, the golf course and the racecourse all on the left until you reach a road on the left signposted ‘Avon Fire and Rescue’.

*Continue as far as the main gates where there is a small road to the right. Follow this past a wooden building to the left then bear right down a steep driveway; take a sharp right at the bottom (you will need to take the turn the turn wide and then back up a bit to do this) and park in the car park.

From the M4: Take the Bath exit (junction 18) and follow the A46 towards Bath to the first roundabout.  Take the 3rd exit on to the A420 towards Bristol.  After about 2/3 mile filter left and continue on that road for about 1 mile until it ends at a T junction.  Follow the new road up a steep hill on to the top of Lansdown.  After a short distance, there is a signpost ‘Avon Fire and Rescue’ on the right – continue as from * above.

Winter bookings: in icy conditions, you may need to park by the gate and walk 100 yards to the Oak House. Please consult the forecast and bring appropriate footwear. Wellies are perfect.
