As the starting point of the iconic Hadrians Wall, a border built by the Romans to separate historic Britannia and Caledonia (now the United Kingdom), Carlisle is doused in ancient history. It’s said the city was originally established as a base for soldiers who protected the forts along Hadrians Wall, which is the most significant Roman ruins in Britain today. Now, it is a warm and welcoming northern city with trendy bars and tasty restaurants dominating its centre rather than angry Roman warriors. Carlisle sits in the centre of Cumbria, the rugged corner of north-east England. While the weathered coast is just a few kilometres to the west, the country’s most scenic national park, the Lake District, lies just a few kilometres south. And a few kilometres to the north, Scotland is waiting to be explored.
