The bustling market town of Penrith, once the capital of Cumbria, enjoys a central position between the Lake District and North Pennines and is ideally placed for taking in all that the region has to offer. Renowned for its wealth of specialist shops, the sandstone buildings of Penrith hide intriguing yards, lanes and alleyways, with a myriad of attractive cottages, gardens and little shops. With a wide choice of excellent pubs, hotels, restaurants and entertainment, Penrith also offers a museum, and Millennium Trails round the historic city streets. Within easy reach of the town is Rheged – an innovative visitor centre with shops, restaurants, exhibitions and a giant cinema screen showing educational and informative films. Brougham Castle (The Windsor of the North), Long Meg and her daughters (the 3rd largest stone circle in England) and the historic city of Carlisle are all a short drive away, as is the stunning scenery of both the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales.

The owners of the cottage were very friendly and helpful and the accommodation was excellent.
Mrs Chatto, Stansted, February 2012
Swallow's Nest is a perfectly quaint cottage, decorated beautifully with everything provided. Our Christmas break was made perfect by the little extra's provided by the extremely helpful and friendly owners.
Mrs Heritage, Stockport, December 2011
A fantastic place with a very warm welcome. It was really handy to have a few basics on our arrival and a few treats. Really helpful with providing highchairs and stair gates.
Mrs Nixon, Hayling Island, December 2011
The owners of this holiday accommodation were very welcoming and friendly throughout our stay. We loved the rural location and the wood burning stove was a definite plus!
