After passing the petrol station/shop on your left hand side the road will continue to climb, at the brow of the hill take a left hand turn into Broad Oaks Lane. At the first triangle turn right. Follow the lane along and at the next triangle turn right and continue to follow this lane along for a short distance and take the first right hand turn into the Gatacre Hall Estate. Continue over a cattle grid and at the unmarked cross section turn left where the property stands on the right hand side.
