Tarnside Lodges are set on a working farm and our visitors are very welcome to look around the stables and meet the inmates! The Lodges are about 3 miles from Brampton and 1 mile from the Station, with superb views over Talkin Tarn, where you can sail, row, fish, walk or just enjoy the beautiful countryside. A local private swimming pool is also available for use by appointment.
Using your Tarnside Lodge as a base, you can take day trips to the RSPB Geltsdale Reserve, Carlisle and Hadrian's Wall, the Scottish Borders, the Lake District and more locally the Eden Valley and North Pennine areas. The Gretna Gateway Outlet Centre is only 20 minutes away by car. The Cumbrian Antiques Centre in Brampton is a wonderful way of shopping for antiques within a unique surrounding.
"truly refreshing, feel good place to be"
 
  If you want a totally stress free holiday/break, the local walks around Tarnside are well worth experiencing.
  We breed and train racehorses on the farm, so come and watch them being trained by Maurice Barnes, who rode Rubstic to victory in the 1979 Grand National.
  There are a number of good local eateries including the Blacksmith's Arms in Talkin. Whilst relaxing at Tarnside, why not take a trip to Talkin Tarn Country Park!
