There are plenty of good options for your stay in Carlisle, but choosing where to stay will depend on a few factors.
If you’re arriving by train, there are plenty of hotels right in the centre of the city within a short walk of the station. Carlisle’s within easy reach of Scotland, Gretna Green, Lancashire and Newcastle, so it’s definitely worth considering the train if you’re visiting for a last minute trip to explore just Carlisle itself.
Around the city, there are some historic neighbourhoods where you’ll find cosy bed and breakfasts if you’re on a budget. You’ll have a little further to walk from the train station, but these might be better if you’re driving in and visiting for work or as a stopover on your trip elsewhere.
Planning on using Carlisle as a base for exploring the Lake District? Then you can look a little further out, and there are some good budget hotel options with parking, making it easy to then drive into the national park and start your holiday.
Dalston and Wetheral are two friendly villages nearby with some charming places to stay – they’re a little more out of the way but a good option for a quiet romantic break.
