About Clifton

Clifton lies just off Junction 40 of the M6, making it perfectly placed for exploring both the Lake District and the Scottish borders. The A6 runs straight through the village, connecting Penrith to the north with the southern Lakes, whilst local roads lead to Lowther Castle and Ullswater. With around 16 fast EV chargers nearby and its strategic Eden Valley location, it's an ideal base for touring. The village sits beside Clifton Moor, site of Britain's last battle on home soil in 1745.
