  • Stay in this spacious and luxurious lodge, with two bathrooms and a walk-in wardrobe
  • Relax in the hot tub after a day exploring the Lake District, Scottish Borders or the western Pennines
  • Set within the beautiful grounds of the Calthwaite Hall Estate, with an on-site bar and restaurant
Property code: OC-80609

The Lake District, Eden Valley, Hadrians Wall and Scottish Borders are all within easy reach of this stylish holiday home, giving you lots of scope for exciting days out. With two bedrooms and a private hot tub, it’s well-suited to couples and families, accompanied by one canine companion. As there are other holiday lodges on-site, it’s a great location to meet up with family and friends – and perhaps a few more canine chums too.

 

Make yourself at home in the comfortable open-plan living area, decorated in soothing subtle tones to put you at ease. Kickstart your day with a brew from the Tassimo coffee machine before taking Fido for a walk around the Calthwaite Hall estate and beyond. On cosy evenings indoors, put your feet up on the footstool while watching a film on the Smart TV, and feel the welcoming warmth of the flame-effect electric fire. If you’d rather indulge in a soak under the stars in the outdoor hot tub, feel free to use the bathrobes and slippers provided.

To give your dog a workout, enjoy long walks in the wonderful surrounding Eden Valley. The route between Armathwaite and Coombs Wood (7 miles) is particularly scenic as it takes in pretty woodland beside the River Eden. Enjoy a boat trip with your canine on Ullswater (16 miles) in the Lake District or head slightly further afield to follow in the footsteps of the Romans on the Hadrian’s Wall Path at Carlisle (18 miles).

We arrived at the lodge - looked great on the outside. Modern, presentable and the hot tub was covered by a wooden shelter. Very well designed. The park itself had other lodges and smaller pod areas aswell with their own hot tubs. Inside we were just getting a feel for the place and found a tin of opened dog food - which was mouldy so had mayRead morebe been there for a few days possibly. There also was something black on the sofa....which thankfully was just some fluff and not a dead bug! This and finding no towels in the lodge weren't the best starting points of the break away! It wasn't the end of the world as the mouldy tin was disposed of in the bin outside of the lodge, and the rest of the lodge was clean. Apart from that hiccup the lodge itself was very spacious inside, well equipped and comfortable. The hot tub worked very well, good place to relax and can be used pretty much all weather as it has a shelter over it. A friendly staff member greeted us on arrival to show us the hot tub use and get us booked onto the site We enjoyed our stay at the lodge and the Lake District. Hide

Nice lodge and good location. Booking in needs to be made clearer as we sat outside the gates and didnt know what to do until we called the number we were given. It would be easier if they just told you to go to The Globe pub across the way to book in.
