Wonderful
We had a wonderful, peaceful stay. No light or noise pollution, beautiful views, yet local amenities no more than 5-10 mins away by car. Gillian was a wonderful host - nothing was too much trouble and the lodge had everything you could possibly think of or need, and was spotless - a real home from home. Spoilt for choice on nearby walks for all abilities. Thank you - we'll be back!

The Big Country
My partner and I are lucky to live in North Yorkshire, and are hardly deprived of beautiful scenery.But nothing could have prepared me for the astonishing variety and grandeur of the Lake District. Our holiday accommodation- inside, a luxurious bungalow- placed us right in the scenic heart of the region. Enormous, grandiose mountains in every direction. Wildlife, sheep, a heron, 2 beautiful semi retired border collies. A wonderful, restful bathe in nature’s beauty.

Unbelievable location, fantastic lodge
What an amazing place - we had a fantastic time at Calf How Lodge. The setting is absolutely picture perfect with panoramic views. The lodge was immaculately clean, well-appointed, rooms were a decent size, loads of entertainment, walks from the lodge itself, friendly owners, just so many superlatives. I don't often leave reviews but this place is so extremely good I need to say thank you and recommend it!

Lovely week in the Lakes
The lodge was spacious, comfortable and just what we needed for a week in the Lakes. The view down the valley from the living room window was wonderful. The owners were very hospitable and helpful with advice on walks. We think the listing didn't do it justice!

Gillian & Duncan
Gillian & Duncan were the perfect hosts, key on the table. So we could enter our lodge without disturbing anyone at any time, although we had a fair walk to the bus stop each day, there was plenty of walking from our lodge, brilliantly clean and starter pack so didn’t have to rush out for shopping. Would recommend this lodge to anyone,,, 5+ rating Denise

Good stay in Lake District
We had a wonderful fine stay in the cottage. There was something wrong about the heating, so he owners made us a very good offer: we could stay in a nice cottage, also with a wonderful view. We liked it very much, and it was very comfortable.
