Swallows Retreat At Calthwaite Hall is a compact wooden lodge sitting pretty in the Eden Valley, Cumbria. This one-bedroom hideaway offers stunning valley views from your private deck. It's part of a small collection of stepped lodges in Calthwaite, a peaceful village on the northern edge of the Lake District National Park. Each property enjoys its own space without being lined up in boring rows.
The Eden Valley location gives you the best of both worlds. You're tucked away in a quiet spot but still close enough to explore the Lakes' best bits. Private hot tub sessions after long walks are mandatory! The site even has resident peacocks wandering about (who apparently enjoy being fed by guests). Fancy a night off cooking?
