By Air

The closest international airport is in Manchester, which is approximately 2-3 hours away by rail and 2 hours by car. Heathrow and other London airports offer more flights, and are approximately 5-6 hours by rail and 4-5 hours by car.

By Rail

The nearest train station to the hotel is in Windermere. You should be able to take a taxi from there to the hotel. Train schedules can be searched here.

By Car

The wedding venue is approximately 4-5 hours from London, 3-4 hours from Oxford and 2 hours from Manchester Airport. You can search for directions here. American drivers may wish to review British road signs and markings, and can expect to find the steering wheel on the right.

By Taxi

There are a number of listed taxi services in Windermere (south of the hotel, and the nearest train station) and Ambleside (north of the hotel, and our base after the wedding). Note that we haven't tried any of these services!
