mickwren Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Trial is held bang in the Centre of Broughton in Furness. I don,t know of any camping and most lodgings are booked up from one year to the next. Accomodation can be found in towns about 10 miles away such as Ulverston. From N Yorkshire you need to aim for Junction 36 of the M6 then follow A590 (signed Barrow in Furness) as far as Greenodd then turn right following Whitehaven/Workington A5092/A595 Broughton is aprox 7 miles from there. Saturday night is usually rocking with several pubs round the square, your wife will love it ( and you) Mick Wren LMTA Secretary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
