Conveniently located. It is important to ensure you are awake before the national trust employees pass by around 8.45 am, as this is their main route to work. If they happen to stop by and ask, it would be best to say that you have just arrived.

This location is ideal for a visit to Dovedale. There may be limited availability for overnight stays, so it's best to check with the Ranger. Keep in mind that barbecues are not permitted according to a National Trust sign. The cellular signal is weak, but the upside is that it is a peaceful area. Parking is available on the road at Ilam, but it is scarce north of that point.
