Local Information

ALSTON AREA

Cumbria is often said to be the most beautiful county in England. Historically part of Cumberland, Alston being about 1000 feet above sea level is the highest market town in England and lies within the North Pennines, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, surrounded by stunning views of the surrounding fells and the South Tyne Valley. The surrounding moorland has diverse flora and fauna and provides an abundance of wild and rare animals and is home to the endangered red squirrel and many types of birds of prey.

Alston was once described as being in the middle of nowhere and the middle of everywhere. It is only 18 miles to Penrith, 20 miles to Ullswater in the Lake District, 23 miles to Hexham and 25 miles to Hadrian’s Wall. Newcastle is only 45 miles away.

Alston has access to two ski slopes at Yad Moss and Allenheads, both with tows. The road linking Alston with Penrith and the Lakes is Hartside and is one of the top 10 best roads for biking. The Lake District National Park, considered one of England’s most outstanding areas of natural beauty, serving as inspiration for artists, writers, and musicians, in only 20 miles to the west.

Home to the South Tynedale Railway, the highest narrow-gauge railway in Britain and The Hub motor museum both served by a tearoom on the station platform offering delicious freshly prepared food. Alston has great selection of Inns, Shops, Cafes, Restaurants and Scenic Walks over Fells, Riverside, hidden Waterfalls and historical industrial sites and museums from the lead mining era. Alston town was also used in the making of Jane Ayre and Oliver Twist with its pretty original buildings and cobbled streets.

The town has a steeply rising cobbled high street and a very distinctive market cross, which has a small fruit and vegetable stall four mornings a week. Other attractions are local craft shops which sell award winning jams and chutneys, and the artisan food shops where you can find a wide range of produce and an excellent range of cheeses, a lot are locally sourced and accommodate dietary requirements and sell our local specialist Cumberland Mustard, made here in Alston.

Pre-Letting Information

There is a great deal of demand for rental property at the present time and all applicants are considered before a decision is made by the landlord.

If your application is accepted, we normally ask for a holding fee which is equal to one weeks rent.  This will hold a property for you for up to four weeks.  The holding fee is non-refundable if you change your mind for any reason or give false information on you application. If your application is rejected by the landlord for any reason, the holding fee will be returned to you.  Please note you cannot reserve a property without viewing it first.

Subject to satisfactory background checks, an Assured Shorthold Tenancy will be created with an initial term of 6 months which is reviewed thereafter.  On the day of your tenancy signing, your holding fee is credited towards your first month’s rent.
