Student City

Situated close the Lake District, one of the most unspoilt areas of natural beauty in Europe and home to Beatrix Potter and also close to the Scottish Border, the City of Carlisle is fast becoming a popular student destination.

The rapid rise in Carlisle's student population has led to the development of a host of new facilities in the city ranging from café bars and restaurants, to bookshops, high street shops and leisure attractions which cater for a diverse range of interests and tastes.

New developments such as the multi million "golden mile" of trendy new bars, entertainment and eating places located in the city centre show prospective students that this is an excellent time to come and study in Carlisle.
