The quality continues in the bedroom with its wonderfully comfortable bed with crisp linen bedding and complementing décor.

Being in the heart of the town Moat View is only seconds from the main street where you will find a variety of quaint little shops and excellent restaurants and pubs, ideal if you don’t want to cook after your day exploring the beautiful Cumbrian countryside. There is an abundance of attractions close by, probably the most famous, the iconic Hadrian’s Wall. Within a few miles of Moat View you can walk stretches of the wall and enjoy reading the history along the way. Talkin Tarn Country Park just outside the town is beautiful with its 65-acre lake set amid 120 acres of farmland and woodland, the ideal place to enjoy a walk or even try your hand at some boating on the lake.
The beautiful border city of Carlisle is a short 20-minute drive away where you can visit the castle or just take in some retail therapy at some of the high street shops. You can take a short drive over the border to the beautiful beaches of Dumfries and Galloway and the pretty village of Gretna Green. While in Cumbria, however, no stay would be complete without a visit to the stunning Lake District National Park, now a World Heritage Site, with its mountains and lakes and thriving communities like Keswick and Windermere.

Moat View is well placed in Brampton, the parking space is very useful and the accommodation itself is spot on with everything you could need. The bed is super comfortable and the shower good and strong. The kitchen has everything you need. Brampton itself has a good variety of shops with two pubs open, The Howard Arms having a good menu. There are good bus services into Carlisle and to Hadrian's Wall. We walked to Talkin Tarn wehich is beautiful with a nice tea room, likewise to Lanercost Priory.Don't be fooled by "Moat" as in water surrounding a buiulding, it refers to the Motte, old fortification at the top end of town with superb views. The weather played its part and we would definiotely recommend this property. We'll be back.

Great base to explore Hadrian's Wall - Brampton has good transport links to Carlisle, Hexham and Newcastle and the new HW1 bus to Hadrian's Wall. Apartment is cosy and clean, with a great shower; it has its own parking space and is close to shops and a great pub. Would definitely stay here again.

Moat View, BramptonThe flat is quite small although more than adequate for two people. Situated above a hairdressing salon , the property is central in the village and very close to all High Street amenities.Surprisingly, the bedroom is quite spacious although not fully utilised due to sloping roof.The property is furnished well and is warm, welcoming and comfortable.The area is a good touring base, particularly if your interest is nature, walking or the Roman Wall.We enjoyed our week immensely, despite a week of showers.There are really only two criteria of importance when submitting a property review. Was the property good value for money and would I come back again. The answer in both cases is a resounding yes and we are already reviewing a return next May.
