Escape to the romantic landscape of Cumbria with the one you love, enjoying windswept walks across the Lake District National Park and romantic dinners for two in one of the fabulous local eateries. Based just 8 miles from the bustling streets of Penrith, you will soon be soaking up the history and culture of this exclusive location. Your bijou-style property offers a warm greeting in the form of a welcome pack and a hot tub for your exclusive use, ideal for special evenings feasting on BBQ delights and sharing a bottle of wine.

 

Cosy yet compact, this contemporary pod has been carefully designed to maximise the use of space with a stylish twist. Sleeping, dining and eating quarters are cleverly concealed in the living space, where you’ll discover a hidden double bed and lots of storage, which reveals all the necessities you’ll need for your stay. Whip up simple meals in the handy kitchenette and take them outside onto the decked area for an al fresco treat, rounding off with a dip in your own private hot tub. Weary from the day’s adventures, the fantastic shower room is surprisingly spacious with a rainforest shower.

 

Tailor your holiday to suit your individual style, embracing a slower pace of life with long walks around the gently lapping shores of Ullswater 16 miles away and traditional cream teas in a welcoming tearoom in Pooley Bridge 13.5 miles away. Ullswater is also an excellent place to try your hand at water sports if you are feeling energetic, whether you are a keen fisherman or would like to take to the water by boat or kayak. Change pace and walk in the footsteps of ancient noblemen with a visit to Penrith Castle 8 miles away, learning more about the town’s fascinating past at the museum.

Lovely cabin. Located in a peaceful area. The hot tub was a lovely bonus. And the little restaurant/pub on site was lovely and cozy.

Everything needed was supplied, lovely quiet spot, (apart from the peacocks that my husband kept feeding) the lodges weren't in a row, they were stepped, so everyone had a lovely view. Hot tub was checked and tested several times a day. Very private and secure. A great relaxing break. And good value

Small but all you could need although we couldnt get the TV signal to work but that wasnt an issue for us as we took our laptop and were out most of the day anyway, the hot tub is a great addition, the globe inn does lovely food, abit expensive but the portion size is big and the quality is good so its worth it and you do receive a discount. Lodge Read moreisnt far from the Lake District walks and only about an hour drive to Windermere. Overall we had a great stay Hide

A lovely couple of nights spent at the Swallows Retreat. Property is very well laid out with a lot of thought put into the space in the cabin. Applicances provided were generous, alongside towels for use in the shower/hot tub. Very friendly staff, and a few surprise visits from the peacocks on the grounds made it that little bit extra special! DistRead moreance-wise - it's in ideal travelling distance to the likes of Keswick and others. Hide

Lovely area, Globe inn was fantastic so were the staff. The cabin we had needs a good overhaul to fix some issues arising from damp and cleanliness.
