Ideally situated between the South-western
borders of Scotland and the Lake 
District,
Carlisle is an undiscovered gem of a city; steeped
in history and boasting a beautiful cathedral and
castle.
All the major retail outlets can be found in its pedestrian-friendly
city centre, which boasts a large theatre complex
and The Sheep Mount; a newly-built sports stadium.
Carlisle Racecourse is also a well-recognised feature
of the city.
Carlisle is easily accessed by the M6 motorway and
the M74/A74 up towards 
Glasgow,
Edinburgh and the North; it is also a principal station
on the west coast main line railway.
It is currently experiencing a high level of commercial
investment, regeneration and growth.
