The hotel was perfectly located in the heart of Carlisle, making it easy to explore the town centre. There was plenty to see, both in terms of history; castle, cathedral, and ancient Roman structures also the many social attractions.

Quiet city consideringit is a University City.

Quiet city consideringit is a University City. Lots if shopping areas but like many high streets many empty premises. The indoor covered market is virtually non exisitant which is a shame. Parking is reaonable and the Cathedral is well worth visiting.

The older area of the city around the cathedral and castle is the most interesting and easy to explore on foot. The area includes the Tullie museum. The town centre shopping area is a disappointment with only one good coffee place.

I knew nothing of Carlisle prior to my visit and we didn't have long to look round but my main feeling was to wonder why nobody's mentioned how lovely it is. It has some stunning historical buildings to see and the city had a nice vibe. It's also really conveniently located for the Lake District and has rail links directly to it. My husband and I have promised each other a longer trip back.

A great compact city, good for a weekend break but also great as a base to explore this beautiful area. Train journeys along the Carlisle /Settle route, the Cumbrian coast route, over into Scotland and to Leeds Newcastle etc all easy.

Pedestrian Plaza under construction - when finished will be an asset. Variety of shops, some in covered markets - weather protection for travellers. Visited Cathedral and Cafe - both worthwhile . Overnight stay on route to Penrith for Family History research - Library staff very helpful.

A nice hotel in a great location for train travel. The sort of purpose built hotel from a grand era in Carlisle’s history that it’s getting harder to find. Check-in late at night with the really kind receptionist was easy and a pleasure. The tea tray was very good and very welcome. The room had all I needed and was excellent value.

An amazing hotel in a quiet countryside location moments away from Carlisle. The staff were very friendly and you could just please yourself in the hotel and in the grounds. Primarily a wedding venue but when there's nothing on its just wonderful for an overnight stop off from the M6 to or from Scotland.

Very comfortable bed. Situated in a lovely village very near to the train station which you could easily get to Carlisle if you didn't want to take your car. We had an excellent dinner in the bar. Staff were very helpful and friendly. There was a leasure centre attached to the hotel.
