Getting around Cumbria is a cinch – whether you opt for the bus, the train (including our fabulous collection of steam trains) or a traditional steamboat across the lakes. You can use your own wheels, of course, but that means you’ll have to keep at least one eye on the road - which doesn’t give you as much scope to soak up the glorious scenery.
For information on car parking around the county of Cumbria, and where you can charge your electric car, please visit our car parking and car charging page.
