Our stylish Hotel is situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty enjoying stunning views of both the South Tyne River and the fells beyond.
Alston house is also situated on what has been described by the AA as one of top ten outstanding drives in the world. The incredible panoramic views still take our breath away every time we make the journey from Alston through Melmerby down to Penrith on A686!
Alston House Hotel is also on the Pennine Way and is just a short detour from the coast to coast cycle route, and for those hardy outdoor types we are seen as an oasis in which to relax, unwind and indulge.
Talking of indulging, owner and chef Mike Allchorne is passionate about producing the very best local food, “that is why we only use certified Lakeland beef and lamb, local eggs and why we make all the cakes and treats served in the house café from scratch in our kitchens” enthuses Mike.
So, if you are fed up with the ready meals served up in so many of todays pubs and hotels then a visit to Alston House Hotelwill delight.
Alston House Hotel’s commitment to using the finest locally produced products is not confined to the kitchens; owner and hotel manager Carole Allchorne is keen to point out that, “Even the soap we use in our rooms is produced locally by Woadworks, who are situated on Alston Moor, this is just another example of our total commitment to supporting local artisan producers.”“A unique place in Alston- we are so glad we found you”
