Route to Carsington Water advice needed

How about using M62, M6, M56, Manchester Airport relief Road (A555), A6 and finally A515 towards Ashbourne.

We pick up your route MNL at the start of the M56 from north Wales whenever we are heading to the Peak District these days. Our preferred route and best on Sundays without the lorry traffic.

We've done the vast majority of routes.. Over the Cat & Fiddle or through Congleton and Leek, even from the A500 approaching from the South East once when getting to a CL between Ashbourne and Buxton and found Ashbourne a bit of a pain from that direction with cars parked just outside the entrance to the town causing a squeeze.

Unfortunately for the OP we've not done it the way he is asking! Sods Law.

Thanks both. I'll Google that.

I'm wrong side of Merseyside to pick up M62, but I can go M53, M56 (probably easier anyway).

Bizarrely Google Maps came up with the same (non sensible) route that I did, so maybe it is sensible after all....
