Parking is in one of the Lustleigh show fields. From the A382 Bovey Tracey to Moretonhampstead road take the road to Lustleigh from Kelly Cross (SX 790819). After about 300 yds turn left into the parking field at SX 790817 and drive to the far end of the field. The path to the mine will be signed and is a walk of about 250 yds with one high stile and a stream to cross. After heavy rain the parking field may be soft and unsuitable for large vehicles. The access path and mine site can be muddy after heavy rain.

Less able bodied visitors may be dropped off on the main road outside the mine. There is no parking on the site. Please do not park on the main road.
