About Travelodge Carlisle M6

Right inside the Moto Service Area at Southwaite, Travelodge Carlisle M6 makes the most of its junction between Carlisle and Penrith, with the Lake District within easy reach for anyone breaking up a longer drive. Free on-site parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis, and drivers are asked to register their vehicle at reception to avoid charges, while an electric vehicle charge point covers those needing to top up.

The hotel has 39 rooms across two floors, each with an en-suite bathroom and complimentary tea and coffee, and accessible rooms are available. Furnishings are functional rather than fresh, and some rooms show their age, but beds are comfortable and the rooms are kept clean. A restaurant on site serves breakfast, with further food options including a nearby Costa Coffee and other eateries close by. Pets are welcome, so travelling with animals isn't a problem.

Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful, and despite the motorway setting, the rooms are quiet enough for a proper night's sleep. It suits anyone wanting a straightforward, no-fuss stopover rather than a destination in itself, with Carlisle and the wider Lake District easily reached from the M6 the next morning.

Very smelly and carpets look like they need a good clean throughout. Definitely ready for a good revamp. Water pressure is next to nothing on the shower. Would get more use with a cup of water. Would definitely not stay there again

Rooms plus bathrooms were nice & clean. There plenty of towels available. No toiletries though except toilet roll. Tea & coffee was provided in the room but if we needed any extra we had to collect ourselves from reception. I suppose for late night stay this was ok. Overall staying with my family was a pleasant experience.

Perfectly good stop off for the night whilst travelling north on M6. Bedroom clean and comfy and bathroom clean too. Nice touches like providing a fan in hot weather. Staff friendly and helpful. We'd use again.

It's on the South bound M6. Our satnav insisted we drive 22 miles extra. There is a local private access for Lodge guests. Excellent instructions at reception. But.....
