Travelling to Carlisle

By Road: Carlisle and Hadrian's Wall country are well served from the south by the motorway system. You can drive straight into Carlisle in a few minutes from either junction 42 or 43 on the M6 motorway. From the north there?s the A7 and the A74(M) and from the east you'll more than enjoy the scenic beauty of the A69 between Newcastle and Carlisle.

By Rail: There are regular services from London and other major cities to Carlisle?s Citadel Train Station, but why not incorporate one of the UK?s finest rail trips into your break by catching a train from Settle in North Yorkshire on the breathtaking Settle-Carlisle Railway.

By Air: There are regular flights to Newcastle International Airport, and the trip to Carlisle from Tyneside, approximately 80 miles, will take you through some of the UKs most stupendous scenery.

National Express and Stagecoach Express have regular connections to Carlisle from London Victoria Coach Station and most major UK cities.
