Nestled in the North Pennines National Landscape, Alston is England's highest market town, offering a unique blend of rugged charm and rich history. This picturesque Cumbrian gem, with its cobbled streets and 17th-century stone buildings, transports visitors to a bygone era.

Outdoor enthusiasts will relish the town's proximity to excellent hiking and cycling trails, including the South Tyne Trail and parts of the Pennine Way. The surrounding landscapes of rolling hills and unspoiled moorlands provide breathtaking views and ample opportunities for nature photography.

Alston's vibrant community hosts regular markets, showcasing local crafts and produce. History buffs can explore the area's mining heritage at Nenthead Mines or take a nostalgic ride on the South Tynedale Railway.
After a day of adventure, cozy pubs and tearooms offer warm hospitality and hearty local fare. With its tranquil atmosphere and stunning scenery, Alston promises a refreshing escape from the bustle of modern life.
