Things to do

Walking and Hiking

Cumbria is a walker’s paradise, with footpaths, hiking routes and panoramic views all around – including right on our doorstep.

We would always recommend booking a local guide if you are not familiar with the local area, as guided walks are one of the best ways to gain an in-depth understanding of the historical and cultural landscapes of the surrounding countryside.

Cycling and E-Bike Rental

Farlam Hall is the perfect base for exploring the beautiful North Pennines, Cumbria and the Solway Coast on four wheels.

Country Pursuits

We invite you to experience a wide range of traditional country pursuits, reflect the heritage of our surroundings.  Whether you are looking to try a new activity or to enjoy your favourite hobby, our selection of pursuits offer a memorable way to enrich your stay.
