As well as the vibrant city of Carlisle, there are some great towns and villages across the Carlisle and Hadrian’s Wall area which are well worth a visit. In the west, Bowness-on-Solway boasts a coastal position and some of the most stunning sunsets across the region; while in the east, the charming market town of Brampton is bursting with character and history.

You can also travel by train, with rail services across the area and a well-served train station in Carlisle’s city centre.
