The location of The Hayloft is ideal for exploring the Scottish Borders, Northern Lakes, and the Pennines. The Lake District, with its impressive mountains, open fells, and clear-water lakes, offers a range of outdoor activities from walking and watersports to leisurely cruises on steam-powered yachts. Nearby attractions include Hadrian's Wall, the Solway Firth coast, and the market town of Brampton, which dates back to Roman times and offers a glimpse into the region's history.
In addition to its historical significance, Brampton is home to Talkin Tarn Country Park, a 180-acre park with a 10,000-year-old glacial lake, as well as Gelt Woods, an ancient forest along the River Gelt.
