| Nent Hall Country House Hotel Alston Alston Cumbria CA9 3LQ England United Kingdom | Nestled in the Nent Valley and surrounded by dramatic landscape designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Nent Hall Country House Hotel is a haven of tranquillity. The hotel has recently been completely refurbished and offers a charming and comfortable country residence where you can get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Ideally positioned near Alston and within easy reach of the Lake District, Pennines, Hadrians Wall and Newcastle its a wonderful base from which to explore. Nent Hall was built as a private dwelling by the owners of a mine, who had the good fortune, in 1814, to strike silver as well as a rich vein of lead in their mine, which had previously been abandoned as worthless. Wild life abounds - badgers, foxes, hares and occasionally deer and red squirrels can be seen. There are swifts, fields full of lapwings, pheasants, grouse and birds of prey, some of them rare. From April, when the marsh marigolds come into flower, until late summer, wild flowers are everywhere, including wild pansies and the rare Grass of Parnassus. For a truly relaxing holiday linger in the elegant dining room, take your ease in our sitting rooms or wander across the lawns and sit under the trees. You can stroll along the banks of the little River Nent, saunter round the ancient cobbled lanes of nearby Alston, or walk up to several vantage points, where the whole valley is spread out below you. Please indicate in the comments box if you would like to book dinner. Thankyou | |
