This family-run hotel in tranquil Alston is on the Pennine Way and offers local home-cooked food in an area of outstanding natural beauty that is a paradise for walkers and cyclists.
Alston House is an AA 4-star restaurant with rooms, and has an AA Dinner Award.
Ideal for the unspoilt moors, Alston House is minutes from recognised walking routes, and cycle routes pass the front door.
The hotel's pub restaurant offers hearty British fare accompanied with a well-selected wine list, Real Ales and traditional beers, all to be enjoyed in front of a log fire in winter. Alston House is an ideal stopping point for those walking the Pennine Way or cycling the C2C cycleway, or Pennine Cycleway North. Both cycleways run past the front door.
The Pennine Way, the 270 mile route, which from the South takes in the Peak District and Yorkshire Dales before reaching Alston Moor, is just two minutes walk from the door so stopping over won’t involve an unwanted detour from your route.
For those planning a less strenuous visit to the area there are riverside walks, waterfalls, cycling, horse riding, the highest narrow gauge railway in England, gift shops and potteries. Food and beverage:
Enjoy a hearty Cumbrian breakfast every morning, prepared using local produce wherever possible, including the famous Alston sausage.
All the food in the hotel's restaurant, open for lunch and dinner, is prepared from fresh ingredients, combining robust English fare with a sophisticated continental twist. As the pub is popular with both locals and visitors who enjoy the friendly, informal atmosphere Alston House provides, it is recommended you book your table early.
The bar is open daily from 12:00 until 14:00 and 17:00 until 23:00.
