Carlisle Cottages
Carlisle sits at the northern edge of Cumbria, steeped in history and surrounded by open countryside. With easy access to both Hadrian’s Wall and the Lake District, it’s a great base for short breaks or longer holidays. Our Carlisle holiday cottages include rural retreats with options like lodges with hot tubs and self-catering holiday lets. Cumbrian Cottage Holidays offers a relaxed and comfortable way to enjoy this part of the North West.

The Carlisle area has a wide mix of places to stay, and our holiday cottages reflect that variety. You’ll find cottages with stunning garden views, lodges with hot tubs in Carlisle’s outskirts, and pet friendly cottageswhere dogs are very welcome. For couples, smaller cabins or shepherd huts provide space to slow down. Families and groups often enjoy the ease of larger, self catering cottages with more space and full kitchens.
We’ve been working in Cumbria for over 30 years and know the region well. Each property is picked for its quality, location and comfort. Our local team is always on hand with advice, and we keep things simple and straightforward for your stay. Whether it’s for a relaxing weekend or a full week of holidays in Carlisle, our aim is to make your break easy and enjoyable.
A City with a Roman Heart
Carlisle’s long history goes back to Roman times, when it was known as Luguvalium. Its strategic location near the Scottish border means it has been shaped by centuries of conflict and change. Today, highlights include Carlisle Castle and Tullie House Museum, both within walking distance of the city centre. Just outside the city are peaceful spots like Talkin Tarn and Lanercost Priory, ideal for a quiet walk or picnic.
Things to Do Around Carlisle
Holiday cottages in the Carlisle area place you close to both heritage and nature. Explore sections of Hadrian’s Wall on foot or bike, visit Roman forts like Birdoswald, or take a day trip into the Lake District for fell walks and lake views. In the city itself, independent shops, local pubs and the cathedral quarter add plenty of interest. There are also regular markets, walking tours, and live music events. Carlisle makes a great base to experience both town and countryside at your own pace.
Why do we love Carlisle? Here at Cumbrian Cottage Holidays we are locals and enjoy staying in all the locations where we offer cottages. Alongside visiting the much-assailled Carlisle Castle, Carlisle is within reach of Hadrian’s Wall to the East and Solway Coast to the West, offering plenty of options for exploration from history to nature and more.
