Plains Rd, Playground

Tucked into the village of Wetheral just outside Carlisle, this little playground sits in a pretty quiet spot that doesn’t get half the attention it deserves. It’s handy if you’re already in the village — the Crown Hotel and the local store are both a short walk away, so you can sort snacks or a post-play drink without much hassle. Worth knowing that it’s not wheelchair accessible, so keep that in mind before making the trip. A decent enough option for local families wanting somewhere low-key and peaceful.
