Alston is the highest market town in England and is 18 miles (29 km) from the M6 and the Lake District. The Cumberland Hotel is an ideal stopping-off point on the C2C cycle route and Pennine Way.
Some bedrooms have beautiful views with a backdrop of the North Pennines.
There is secure storage for bicycles and dogs, as well as a beer garden and a patio. There are opportunities to walk, hike, cycle and play golf in the local area. The South Tynedale Railway is not far.
Cumberland Inn is at the foot of the main street, and at the end of one of the finest driving routes the country has to offer. Recently voted among the Ten Top Drives in the World, the A686 passes outside. The journey from Penrith is a spectacular drive.
The Cumberland has recently been voted Pub of the Year by Solway CAMRA group, which puts them in the running for national Pub of the Year.

The Cumberland Hotel is situated along the a686.
If you're travelling from the South-East turn left at Scotch Corner on the A1 and travel westwards on the A66 until a signpost for Barnard Castle. Turn right and follow the signs for the B6277, Barnard Castle and Middleton-in-Teesdale. When you reach Middleton-in-Teesdale turn left at the junction in the town and keep on the B6277. When you reach Alston (after passing through dramatic countryside) drive down the cobbled main street and turn left at the bottom of the road. The Cumberland Hotel is on the right.
If you are travelling from the South-West, head North on the M6 until junction 40 (Penrith). Turn right and take the second left on the roundabout heading East. At the next roundabout take the A686 for Alston. The road heads towards the unmistakable hills of the North Pennines. When you head down into Alston Moor after Hartside Pass, keep on the road and go over the bridge into Alston. The Cumberland Hotel is a little way along on the left just past the garage.
