It offers a bar, lounge, restaurant and leisure facilities including a swimming pool and Jacuzzi. All bedrooms are en-suite and feature a TV, hairdryer and tea/coffee making facilities. This hotel has a lift.
Settle Carlisle Rail
We travel through the charming countryside to Settle. Here we board the famous Settle to Carlisle Railway line. Towering viaducts, bridges, long tunnels, and lovingly kept station gardens all combine to make this one of the best-loved lines in the country.
Hexham
We head for Longtown and drive along Liddesdale as we make our way to picturesque Kielder Water & Forest Park. We take a break at the Visitor's Centre before continuing to historic Hexham, with its iconic Abbey dominating the market square. This afternoon, we return along the path of Hadrian's Wall, which stretches some 76 miles from The Tyne to the Solway.
Ravenglass Railway
The day begins with a short walk from the hotel to Carlisle rail station for our journey to Carlisle. The line follows the Cumbrian coastline through Maryport and Whitehaven, and the stunning sea views stay with us until Ravenglass. Here we join the Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway, known locally as La'al Ratty (little railway) - running from the coast to the foothills of England's highest mountains, completing our day of seven miles of steam in the Lake District National Park.
