Calthwaite Hall Lodges

out of 5

Calthwaite Hall is uniquely set on the footprint of the barns used for a historic dairy farm and accompanying country house and gardens, this truly magical setting mixes historic country living with contemporary sophistication. Calthwaite maintains the traditions of a Cumbrian village with the old style estate sandstone village with church, primary school and worker cottages. The historic, gothic hall is at the centre of the village yet cleverly maintains the feeling of a hidden hideaway with formal lawned grounds and ornamental ponds designed by William Sawrey Gilpin, historic listed features such as the Portuguese Sweet Chestnut Specimen tree, hidden folly and veteran trees where cuckoos can be heard. No wonder the Howard family (of Castle Howard fame) previously used this as a country residence.
A range of accommodation can be found at Calthwaite Hall to suit everyone including romantic micro-lodges, luxury country cottage and contemporary, cosy lodge style holiday homes. Whichever you choose enjoy a steamy, bubbling hot tub with views to the Cumbrian starry skies or soak up the sounds of the resident peacocks calling to each other alongside the gentle neighing of cute Falabella miniature horses.
Perfectly placed to easily access the popular areas of the central and northern lake district. Calthwaite Hall also makes for easy journeys up to the Scottish borders or amble across into the western Pennine foothills. Traditional market towns, historic Roman remains, isolated fells and stunning waterfalls are all a short drive away.

We stayed in the Brackenburgh Lodge with two adults, and two kids. It's a really good size, well equipped, and very comfortable. Hot tub was great, and cleaned daily. The Lodge is opposite a field with ponies, and horses, and everyday we were visited by the peacocks and guinea fowl, who were very friendly. My daughter loved feeding them, and it was one of the highlights of her trip! Not much around, but we knew that, 30 minutes from Keswick which was fine. Plenty of supermarkets close by (15 minutes). We didn't have an opportunity to visit the restaurant/bar, but it did look very nice!The staff were lovely, very attentive and kind, no complaints, and deposit was returned quickly.We will definitely go back, highly recommend!

On arrival we found the nosh restaurant staff were helpful we proceeded to check into our lodge which was clean and tidy. It was a very quiet site with just a few lodges close to the areas of Keswick etc. The owner was lovely even chatted was when checking levels in the the hot tub one morning. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t great we didn’t eat in the nowh restaurant although the menu looked good. Would recommend staying here :)
