Kirkby StephenWelcome to our page of accommodation in Kirkby Stephen! The town of Kirby Stephen lies at the head of the Eden Valley. At 600ft, the highest town on the River Eden is strung out along its Market Street. A 17th century footbridge crosses the River Eden. The Market Square is surrounded by an ancient collar of cobble-stones, and has a number of buildings of historical and architectural significance. The Cloisters were built in 1810 between the Square and The Parish Church, with the intention of providing shelter for churchgoers and market people. Immediately through the Cloisters is the Trupp Stone, where tithes were paid until 1836. From the Market Square, many narrow winding passageways lead off, some lead down to Frank's Bridge and the River Eden, where there is a pleasant picnic area. King Edward III granted Kirkby Stephen a market charter in 1361.The market is still held today. A mile south of Kirkby Stephen is a rail station, a stop along the scenic Settle to Carlisle railway line. A popular headquarters for walkers of the Pennines and the eastern Lake District, Kirkby Stephen is also on the Cumbria Cycle Way and is the central point on Alfred Wainwright's Coast to Coast walk-190 miles from St Bee's Head to Robin Hood's Bay.
