Best Museums in Papcastle

"This top-notch museum is centred on a Grade I-listed Jacobean mansion from the start of the 17th century. The museum opened inside in the 1890s, and modern extensions were made in the 90s and early 2000s. The Tullie House Museum has enthralling artefacts from the Roman forts in Carlisle, including Petriana, which was the largest on Hadrian’s Wall."

"Play, education, History, Archaeology, Museums, Art, Collections. Tullie House, where historic collections, contemporary art and family fun are brought together in one impressive museum and art gallery."

"Market Square, Keswick (10 min walk) — Offering great tasting burgers (including vegan and vegetarian options), using local ingredients, homemade sauces and inventive twists on classic combinations. Cocktails are crafted with love and there is a wide enough selection to suit all tastes. Failing that, the beers, wines and soft drinks should have you covered."

"Fifth on the list of Keswick restaurants is The Round, a stunning eatery and the sister restaurant of Fellpack. The Round sits at the base of Moot Hall in Keswick’s vibrant market square. This is recognised as the starting point of the Bob Graham Round, a fell running challenge which sees individuals embark on a journey around 42 peaks in just 24 hours."

"Styled like an American Diner there is always a friendly welcome here and we love the food. Its American, Mexican, and tasty. Something a little different from your normal Lakeland fair."

"Carlisle’s Guildhall is in a cantilevered half-timbered building from the 14th century, and one of the four oldest structures in the city. Sections of its walls are made with Medieval wattle and daub, while a great deal of the original timberwork survives. The ground floor, where the arcades have been filled in, is a restaurant, which is a separate business, while the upper floors hold a museum maintained by Tullie House Museum."

"This old slate mine has been reinvented as a centre for all kinds of activities: you could venture underground into the bowels of the old 'Edge' and 'Kimberley' mines, tackle a via ferrata, or climb inside the mine along a system of fixed cables, tracing the route followed by the slate miners. A tour into the 'Cathedral' mine runs on Friday by request, but you'll need eight people and it costs £25 per person."
