Huts
The LMC has huts in the Lake District, Wales and Scotland.
The two Lakeland huts have been acquired on land belonging to the National Trust near Blea Tarn above the head of Langdale.
The club has recently exchanged land, and is planning to develop a new hut situated in the valley bottom about a mile out of Beddgelert in Snowdonia National Park.
In Scotland we own a large static caravan at Tyndrum, just south of Glencoe.
Huts may be used by members without prior booking, and full members may introduce up to three guests at any given time.
One of the lakeland huts can be leased out to a small number of visiting clubs. The hut sleeps 16. Mattresses, crockery, cooking utensils, cutlery, heating, cooking and lighting are all included in the charge. Contact Dave Sudell tel 01942 258158 for details
Important Information about The Lof & Tyndrum
It is vital that during the winter months water systems are drained down to avoid burst pipes. We have perhaps been lulled into a false sense of security over the last few mild winters -but this winter isn’t finished with us yet!
When it gets to -10C there is only one thing water can do – freeze and pop pipes!!!
The caravan system at Tyndrum had been left undrained by one set of visitors in January and this caused several bursts and a 25mm split in the heat exchanger on the water heater. Normally this would mean £100+ bill for a new one but special thanks to Dave Lomas for spending a day sorting it out including hunting down a bloke with a brazing kit in Killin!
Both the Loft and the caravan have clear step by step instructions as to what to do when leaving.
