Maryport sits just west of the Lake District in Cumbria, close to the beautiful beaches in Allonby and Silloth. It’s a pretty harbour town, full of quaint little shops and interesting haunts.

There’s the Aquarium, a Clip n’ Climb Wall, and the impressive Shipwreck Play Area (located on the harbour). West Coast Indoor Go-Karting is also situated in Maryport, just a few minutes walk from the town centre. If history is more your thing, the Senhouse Roman Museum is full of intriguing artefacts which tell the rich Roman history of the area.

Maryport is easily accessible by train on the Cumbrian Coastal Line which runs from Carlisle to Barrow-in-Furness. Stagecoach also has regular buses coming and going from the town. The 300 leaves Carlisle hourly and the 30 runs from Whitehaven.
