Settle under the covers in this luxury bedroom catching glimpses of the stars sparkling in the water before waking up to an energising shower in the quality en-suite shower room with a large enclosure and a towel rail.

Sunbathing, alfresco dining and relaxing with a good book can all be enjoyed on your private patio area, while mornings can start with a stroll down to the tarn via the shared landscaped gardens, before beginning the day's adventures.

With 120 acres to explore, Talkin Tarn Country Park is a wonderful natural beauty spot to have on your doorstep, with sailing to watch on the tarn, rowing clubs regularly practicing, boat hire available and a charming tea room, you could spend the whole stay here and never tire.

About the location

BRAMPTON, CUMBRIA

Carlisle 10 miles.

The market town of Brampton is the ideal base for exploring Hadrian’s Wall. The town boasts a rich and colourful history going back to the Roman occupation, Border reivers from Scotland and the Jacobite uprisings, plus bonnie Prince Charlie established his headquarters in one of the old buildings in Brampton. In the centre of the town is Moot Hall, which was built in 1817, and now houses the Tourist Information Centre, and there is a large motte to the east of the town, which is 135 feet high and has the statue of the 7th Earl of Carlisle on it. A few miles outside Brampton is Talkin Tarn Country Park. It covers 120 acres of farmland and woodland, 65 of which make up the Tarn, a 10,000 year old glacial lake, fed by underwater springs. Two miles away is Gelt Woods, which is an ancient woodland and RSPB nature reserve and has the River Gelt running through it. Brampton is a wonderful base for exploring this historic and scenic area.
