The charming village of Hallbankgate is located on the northern border of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Hallbankgate, once a community of coal and lead miners and the location of the illustrious Lord Carlisle’s railway, is now a charming holiday spot hidden in Cumbria’s natural beauty, with fascinating limestone quarries laying on its southern end. The Belted Will, a quaint, 17th-century bar named after Lord William Howard of Naworth Castle, is well-liked by the townspeople and is known for its excellent food and helpful service. Also, Hallbankgate is home to a convenient grocery where vacationers may stock up on all of their needs. The settlement backs upon the nature reserve of RSPB Geltsdale, where hikers and bikers can stroll through to their heart’s content whilst observing the Cumbrian fauna.
