Bessiestown is a luxurious retreat, in the heart of Border Reiver country - the Debatable Lands - a relaxing and refreshing base from which to explore some of the most beautiful countryside in northern England. The Border City of Carlisle, the Lake District, Hadrian’s Wall, Kielder Water and Forest, Solway Coast as well as Gretna Green, famous the world over for romantic weddings and the Borders of Scotland are all in easy reach. The landscape on the doorstep is well worth exploring too.

“Northern hospitality at its best, hospitality, food and accommodation all excellent. Glad to have met you and we will be back.” The Peter family.

Bessiestown is ideally placed as a stop over on the way to or from Scotland but take our advice and make yours a longer stay - so many visitors in the past have come back time after time to explore the local countryside and to enjoy our hospitality.
