Hi,
I've some elderly relatives who we are due to meet in Buttermere. Very long story short: the driver is partly disabled and the passenger a nervous driver. What is the best or easiest driving route to Buttermere village? I'm guessing the options are either via Keswick and the Honister Pass or Braithwaite and the Whinlatter Pass.
The driver with the disability is a competent driver but is concerned about any "epic" reversing needed if meeting a passing car on a single track. So I guess part of the question is: which route has the most passing places or has fewer single track sections?
Many thanks in advance. AP
