Hadrian's
Wall - one of the most visited tourist attractions in
the whole of the United Kingdom, and stretches the width of
the country from the mouth of the river Solway in Carlisle
to Newcastle on the North Sea. The Hadrian's Wall Path was
opened in 2003 and is fast becoming one of Britain's most
popular long distance paths.
Carlisle
- A borough of Northwest England near the Scottish border.
Carlisle
Cathedral
Perhaps
the most beautiful building in Carlisle. Its origin is Norman
and there are still traces of this period to be seen. Some
of the arches in the south transept have been affected by
subsidence as a result of a very severe draught in the 13th
Century.
Carlisle
Castle
Not
a fairytale castle but a robust and impressive fortification
that was built to respell the border skirmishes. Positioned
on the Scottish border, it saw more violence than most other
English castles. The oldest section is the keep, which dates
back to 1150, although a recent dig has unearthed plenty of
proof to show that it sits on an even older Roman site.

A
conveniently located country park only a few minutes
from the M6 (J44). Set in lush green countryside
in a safe, peaceful and quiet setting.
Ideal
location for that overnight break on your travels
North to Scotland or as a base for touring Hadrian’s
Wall Country. Close to the Historical City of
Carlisle, the Northern Lakes and the Scottish
Borders, with nearby golf, salmon and trout fishing,
horse riding, level country walks and historical
houses and gardens.
Most
of the visitors to this peaceful retreat come
as strangers and leave as friends, only to return
on a regular basis, assured in the knowledge that
the site is expertly tendered by Barbara and Murray
Inglis, who have been operating the site for over
30 years.
It’s
the little things that make all the difference,
attention to detail, the real Cumbrian welcome
and the beautifully cared for gardens.
