Swallows Retreat At Calthwaite Hall Reviews

Sam

The lodge was cosy and had everything we needed, even if the TV signal was a bit patchy-no big deal since we just took our laptop and explored outside most of the time. The hot tub was a real highlight, perfect for relaxing after long walks. We loved the food at The Globe Inn; it's a bit on the pricey side, but the generous portions and good quality make it worth it, plus there's a discount which is handy. The location is great, close enough to the Lake District walks and about an hour to Windermere. Overall, a lovely stay!

Alex Turner

Really enjoyed the stay! The place is cosy yet well-equipped, perfect for a quiet evening. The staff at the pub were super welcoming and helpful. We'll definitely come back soon!

Emma

The cottage was super cosy and felt just right. Everything in the kitchen worked without issuesand the hot tub was always at a lovely temperature. Heating was spot on too, warming up quickly when we felt chilly first thing or at night. Lovely stay!
