“This little hut was really cute and cosy.”

The area was really quiet and the view was lovely. A really nice hide away to relax. The hot tub was so nice and relaxing. The shepherd pie was tasty and the bottle of fizz a welcome drink for Christmas eve. It was decorated in a subtle way for Christmas. The only downside was that we could not find a DVD player when in the summary of facilities it said there was one and there was no folder of any instructions on any of the appliances and no information on local services eg. Drs, pharmacists ...

The only downside was that we could not find a DVD player when in the summary of facilities it said there was one and there was no folder of any instructions on any of the appliances and no information on local services eg. Drs, pharmacists etc. Not that we needed them. Other than that we had a lovely peaceful Christmas and i would definitely visit again and recommend it.

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 raiders 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.
