Silloth, a popular tourist destination in West Cumbria, sits on the shores of the Solway Firth, north of the Lake District. In Scotland, the Southern Galloway hills and Skiddaw and the Northern Fells can be seen on the other side of the water. "Invigorating air, temperate climate, open streets, its promenade and beach" were some of Silloth's most lauded attributes. It's famous for its light and sunsets, as well as its stunning sea and mountain views. By 1856, a railway had arrived, and three years later the docks were open for business. In 1886, the Carr's Biscuit Factory Flour Mill was first opened for business in. For quite some time, Silloth was regarded as one of the country's most popular seaside resort destinations. The town was designed as a "health resort for the upper and middle classes" with a regular grid pattern. The rivers that flow into the Solway Firth are commemorated by the street names that branch off of wide, tree-lined Criffel Street. There are 34 acres of open grassland known as the 'Green', which is open to the public. Located in the town is the Silloth and Solway Golf Club which has been ranked No. 1 in both quality and value by the National Club Golfer Magazine 2016. There are wonderful hikes along the coast, particularly from Allonby in the west to Grune Point in the east, here there is always time for a little birdwatching. The Lake District and Birdoswald Fort, a National Historic Landmark on Hadrian's Wall, are both within a scenic drive.  This is a great location for cyclists and walkers, thanks to the quiet country roads and the Cumbria Coastal Path.
