Ideally placed for exploring northern Cumbria, the little hamlet of Milton is set close to numerous attractions including Hadrians Wall, the Solway Firth and the Lake District National Park. With a rich and colourful history, the market town of Brampton dates back to the Roman occupation, and boasts evidence of Scottish border raids and the Jacobite uprising. Apparently, even Bonnie Prince Charlie was a fan of the town, establishing his headquarters in what is now a shop. Just a few miles away is the Talkin Tarn Country Park. Covering 180 acres, the Tarn - a 10,000 year old glacial lake - accounts for 65 acres and is fed by underwater springs. Slightly further south, visitors can take a trip to Gelt Woods - an ancient woodland set along the banks of the River Gelt.
Reviews
"Stayed in the small cottage 'The Stable' 2 adults and dog Excellent little place to stay. The cottage is perfect size for a couple. Clean, warm, well equipped and welcoming. Great location for exploring the area, Gretna 25 mins away, Carlisle 15 mins away, hadrians wall 20 mins away. Will definitely be returning for a break in the summer!"
"Basic base for sleeping and exploring the area, nothing special about this at all. Curtain tie backs hanging off the wall, and coming out of the wall at times. No vacuum cleaner, fence nearly falling down in the garden. Absolute nothing to do anywhere near this place. No paths to wall on, to take the dog for a walk. Garden not private (still dog mess from the previous canine occupant). Located on a working farm, so farmer and tractor constantly going backwards and forwards near to garden. Owner say you can take your dog down to the field, but to do this, you have to walk past farm sheepdogs, half hanging out of what looks like very small, rough kennels (did not even look large enough to be classed as kennels), which I found upsetting. Not particularly friendly owners. Would not go back, and would not recommend. Photos on Sykes are misleading."
"We stayed as a couple in the Stable Cottage in Milton near Brampton, Cumbria for 4 days 3 nights with small dog and use of the hot tub in February 2017. Its was clean, and well kept, very friendly owners, perfect location for Brampton and Carlisle. We had a wonderful time would definitely recommend."
"The owner was very nice woman who was there to greet us when we arrived and showed us around, there was a bundle of leaflets for various attractions and take aways and she showed us how to work the log fire which is lovely but we found doesn't give off that much heat however the hearing was on all the time so we weren't cold. The kitchen is cosy and fully equipped, the bathroom is lovely and large, the bedroom is big but the only quibble was the fridge rattled a bit so took me a while to ignore that on the first night. The lounge is cosy but slightly old fashioned decor. The conservatory is lovely to have a meal in the evening with a gorgeous view. There is a Trainline very close to the house but I only heard it once in a 5 day stay. There is also an outdoor patio area to eat if the weather permits. The hot tub is massive and fits 8 people and easy to use but it's not very private and your sharing it with 2 other cottages adjoined to yours. It was lovely to go in though. The summer house is large and warm and has a large stack of DVDs and a small TV so you can sit in there and relax. There's also a cross trainer in there. I'd definitely come back here again and recommend it to others. "
"Owner was very pleasant and helpful, cottage very clean and cosy ideal situation for a relaxing break, will return."
"We had a terrific time at The Stables. The owner was incredibly helpful, the accommodation was very cosy and clean and the location was beautiful."
