The Fantails Restaurant has a long and interesting history with its building originating around 1600 and we still have many of the features including wooden beams and panelling. From being a blacksmiths shop to a village filling station and now a sought after restaurant and event venue the Fantails is steeped in history with an atmosphere to match.
Located on the village green we are in an idyllic location for beautiful family photos whatever the occasion. In addition we are close to the River Eden for those wanting photos in a more rural setting with stunning scenery backdrops and one of the best salmon fishing Rivers in the country.
For those who would like to get married within the area, we are in short stroll to Wetheral church. A delightful small country church, it is the perfect place to tie the knot with a loved one. Guests staying within the area will find a number of appealing areas of interest including the Roman Wall, Carlisle Cathedral and Carlisle Castle.
