The Forgotten Dales of Cumbria

Drive over the North Pennines at Hartside

One of the most scenic drives of our region crosses the Pennine's at Hartside. Starting from the Tyne Valley at Haydon Bridge it passes the Langley Castle Hotel on the way over to Alston before rising to the top of Hartside, where the view over Cumbria is breathtaking while enjoying a cup of tea in the cafe.

    Pennine Moorland

Other stops on this scenic route are the Langley Hotel for Castle Accommodation, the Elk's Head in Whitfield for a bar lunch on the east side, or the Shepherd's Inn at Melmerby where the Village Bakery has a Tea Shop (View Web Site).  Melmerby can be accessed through Alston from the Weardale & Teesdale valleys with their own variations to the scenery on a clear day.
