This is a rare section of road on the west side of Lake Windermere which literally hugs the lake for a short period. There's also a footpath and set of steps close by which will take you up to the National Trust's Claife Viewing Station. Here you can pick up some tasty treats from Joey's Cafe and enjoy the excellent views.
