Hickins'

@ The Crossing's Cafe, Station Rd, Alston

Stopped by on Sunday as part of a large group. There was 15+ of us so probably bit of a shock to the staff for us to appear but they managed us very well. Very friendly and welcoming. Coffee was excellent, I had a brownie which was delicious. Cooked breakfasts looked great too. Definitely recommend to visit. Set in lovely surroundings.

Saddlers Bakery Bistro

West View, Alston

We popped over with friends for National Pie week. 2 of us had the pheasant and mushroom pie, it was absolutely delicious. The steak and ale, and minced beef and onion also got big thumbs up from those who ordered them.

The Turks Head

Market Place, Alston

The pub of the village! Full with friendly, chatty locals. A great pint, nibbles available. They don’t sell food but are happy for you to take your own in, would definitely go back! A great villagey vibe- dogs welcome! A few benches out front to sit at which was nice to watch the world go by

Swans Head

Swans Head, Townhead, Alston

This is an amazing antiques shop right in the heart of Alston, Cumbria. It has thousands of items which took us quite a while to look around before we bought what we wanted. Even if you do not buy anything it is well worth having a look as there are so many interesting things to see. The owner, Julie is very helpful and knows lots about what she sells.

Lovelady Shield Hotel - Book Direct with Paymán Club

Lovelady Lane, Alston

We stayed in one of the cottages the bedrooms were lovely there were a upstairs bathroom also a shower plus downstairs toilet and a laundry room the kitchen had everything you needed the only problem was the kitchen floor was dirty and the living room was lacking in comfort and needed updating the worst problem was the rug which had turned up corners which was quite dangerous as it was a trip hazard for everyone it was also very dirty its a shame because it took away the lovely building and luxury of the rest of the place as many others have stated in there comments please as the owners do take notice but don't actually do anything about it you have a lovely place so take a little time an get rid of that rug and it would be a lot nicer place which I would love to recommend
