Where to Stay in Carlisle

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.

Insider Tips for Carlisle

  • Begin your visit to Carlisle by exploring its iconic castle, which has stood guard over the city for over nine centuries. Take a guided tour to learn about the castle's fascinating history, from its origins as a Roman fort to its role in the Anglo-Scottish wars. Don't miss the chance to climb to the top of the castle's keep for panoramic views of the city and the surrounding countryside.
  • Carlisle is located near the western end of Hadrian's Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that stretches across northern England. Take a scenic drive or hike along the wall to explore ancient Roman forts, milecastles, and archaeological sites. Be sure to visit attractions like Birdoswald Roman Fort and the Roman Army Museum to learn more about the history of Hadrian's Wall and its impact on the region.
  • No visit to Carlisle would be complete without sampling Cumberland sausage, a local delicacy that has been enjoyed in the region for centuries. Head to one of the town's traditional butcher shops or delicatessens to taste authentic Cumberland sausage, made with seasoned pork and spices.
