The Watts Russell Arms is in an isolated location (you really will be lost in the hills). There is no scheduled public transport within walking distance. However there are some options:

 

If you’re planning on camping:

 

Moorlands Connect bus is an advance booking only service that can take you from Ashbourne. There are limited spaces you MUST book in advance here:

The service runs from 8am - 6pm on Fridays and Saturdays

 

We would encourage you to car share where possible.
