    “Booked at the last minute we were delighted by Stable Cottage.”

    It was easy to find and very well placed for exploring Hadrian's Wall and the Lakes. The cottage was spotless and beautifully appointed. Owner Eddie was very friendly and the welcome package was very generous. We had pretty terrible weather so having a very good tv with Netflix was a bonus in the evenings. Also the combination of no light pollution and very good blinds and beds gave us all very good nights sleeps. Only slight niggles were that the back garden wasn't attached to the house it ...

    It was easy to find and very well placed for exploring Hadrian's Wall and the Lakes. The cottage was spotless and beautifully appointed. Owner Eddie was very friendly and the welcome package was very generous. We had pretty terrible weather so having a very good tv with Netflix was a bonus in the evenings. Also the combination of no light pollution and very good blinds and beds gave us all very good nights sleeps. Only slight niggles were that the back garden wasn't attached to the house it was across a shared drive and through a hidden gate so you couldn't just let the dog out the back door. Also the sloping ceilings upstairs could be problem for families taller than us. All in though a fabulous short break. Thank you

About the location

HALLBANKGATE

Brampton 3.5 miles; Carlisle 12.8 miles; Penrith 22.3 miles.

Situated on the North Westerly edge of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is the picturesque village of Hallbankgate. Once a former coal and lead mining settlement and home to the renowned Lord Carlisle's railway, Hallbankgate is now a lovely holiday destination, nestled amongst the unspoilt scenery of Cumbria with fascinating limestone quarries resting on its southern end. Named after Lord William Howard of Naworth castle, the traditional, 17th century pub of The Belted Will is highly rated amongst the locals and boasts friendly service and great food. Hallbankgate additionally hosts a handy supermarket, where holiday-goers can grab all of their essentials during their stay. The village backs onto the nature reserve of RSPB Geltsdale, where walkers and cyclists can wander through to their heart's content whilst spotting the Cumbrian wildlife. The Talkin Tarn Country Park is even closer to the village and is an extremely popular fishing and picnicking spot. Travel further afield to Lanercost, where history fans will be pleased to discover the stunning ruins of the once-glorious Lanercost Priory, before continuing on to the remains of Hadrian's Wall. With easy access to Brampton and Carlisle, visitors are provided ample opportunity for days out filled with attractions and culture. Nature enthusiasts can venture further into the North Pennines AONB to discover more outdoors activities, or visit the Lake District National Park for a plethora of lakeside fun and watersports to partake in.
