Matterdale - Man & Van Services

Matterdale sits to the west of Penrith, a rural parish in the northern Lake District beneath the fells of Helvellyn. The area features scattered traditional Lakeland farmhouses, stone cottages, and converted barns, in a dramatic mountain setting at the head of Ullswater.

Whether you need help moving from a farmhouse or relocating from a cottage in the valley, local man and van drivers can assist with moves of all sizes. From single items of furniture to complete house clearances, arranging the right van and driver is straightforward.

Many residents moving within or from Matterdale connect with areas across the northern Lakes and Eden Valley. Moves frequently link with Pooley Bridge at the lake head, Tirril along the road, Greystoke to the north, Stainton towards Penrith, and Newton Reigny in the valley. Routes along the A592 past Ullswater and through Dockray are familiar to local drivers, while the lanes beneath Great Mell Fell and towards Keswick over the fells all feature in moves from this scenic mountain area.

Drivers covering Matterdale regularly handle longer journeys across Cumbria, connecting with Keswick, Ambleside, and towns throughout the Lake District.
