Crake Valley - Reviews

Lodge was ok but not the best for the price we paid kitchen tiny fridge and freezer compartment too small bathroom needs updating dirty decking outside and bird seed all over the table but good points was bedroom was nice and bed pillows super comfy toiletries left in bathroom too was nice gesture as was tea coffee etc when you arrived was also there

We stayed at the Acorn Lodge in Crake Valley recently and honestly, it was quite a lovely escape. The location is pretty secluded, a bit away from the main park, which actually worked in our favour. The private garden with the hot tub was a real highlight - evenings soaking in the hot water with the scenic views of the hills was just perfect. And then, to make it even better, it snowed Saturday night - Sunday morning in the hot tub with the snow falling around us was truly magical. The lodge's proximity to a lake and woods made for some peaceful walks, helping us unwind completely. One small thing though, it would be handy if they left some mops in the bathrooms and living area, as the hot tub trips can make the floors quite slippery. Overall, we had a great time and really enjoyed our stay - definitely considering coming back again!

We really enjoyed our stay. The lodge was spotless and cosy and the hot tub was just perfect for relaxing. The peaceful location on the park was great, but a heads up - the outdoor space isnt fully secure for dogs, so watch your pups!

We had a lovely stay at this cottage, tucked away on a working farm but still super private. Robert and Sharon are such nice folks, really friendly. The place itself is surprisingly spacious and well-equipped, especially the kitchen and bathroom, which made our stay even more comfortable. The bed was seriously cosy! The garden is perfect for dogs, totally secluded and nicely furnished. Lots of walks nearby and Thaxted has some great restaurants like The Star and The Maypole. Wed definitely recommend it!

We just got back from a lovely week at Goddards Mead. The cottage is super well-equipped, honestly, everything you could think of is there. The hosts are so friendly and welcoming. Despite being on a working farm, it feels peaceful, like a little retreat!

We had such a lovely stay! The owners are genuinely lovely and super helpful, making us feel really welcome. The cottage itself is adorable, with its charming timber-framed exterior and a cosy feel inside. The shower's powerful and the bed was incredibly comfy-perfect after a day out walking. Parking right next to the cottage was a real bonus and everything was spotless. We loved exploring the nearby fields and Thaxted, such a picturesque place. Definitely recommend!

Would be really handy indeed

Really loved the peaceful surroundings here

We've visited Acorn Retreat at Crake Valley twice now and honestly, it keeps impressing us. The staff are so friendly and helpful and the lodge is always spotless. Only small gripe - the pillows could be a bit softer, but overall, its fantastic!

Really enjoyed our stay, the lodge was stunning and so peaceful, perfect for a getaway.

Really enjoyed it, definitely planning to come back next year.

Really loved it, almost booked again immediately after visiting.

We had such a lovely weekend here! The location is great - away from all the busy tourist spots but close enough for a quick drive into Coniston village. The lodge was really well-equipped and modern, definitely a place we'd stay again. The only tiny hiccup was the Wi-Fi dropping a couple of times, probably because of the storm. Still, overall, a great stay!

Thank you for a fantastic weekend stay. It is perfectly set away from the noise of tourist spots but close enough to Coniston village for a drive in. The lodge was very well kitted out, it was modern & we would 100% re-book. The only minor issue was that the wi-fi went off a couple of times, but this was possibly down to the stormy weather.

We really enjoyed our stay at Tarn Hows. The cabin was beautiful-spotlessly clean, with underfloor heating that kept us cosy. The bathroom was spacious and well-appointed and the kitchen had everything we needed. The hot tub was a real highlight-so relaxing! The area was incredibly peaceful, perfect for unwinding. The only downside was the Wi-Fi situation; satellite Wi-Fi didnt work at all during our visit and the parks free Wi-Fi was unreliable. We ended up watching Film4 for three days straight because of it, which was a bit dull but still a nice break overall.

Absolutely loved our stay, the privacy was just perfect!

We absolutely loved staying here! The rural setting was so peaceful and the courtyard was gorgeous. The hot-tub really made it special. Perfect spot for countryside walks, would visit again!

We loved the peaceful vibe here, super quiet and clean. Hosts were really friendly and helpful. The hot tub is a real highlight, perfect for relaxing. Pets loved the enclosed garden too!

We had a fantastic stay at this cosy cottage! It really has everything you could think of, so we didnt need to bring much at all. The welcome pack was super helpful, with all the info and menus nicely laid out. The owners, Sharon and Rob, were quick to answer any questions and made us feel really welcome. Our dogs loved the enclosed garden and the hot tub was just perfect for relaxing. Little touches for us and the pups made it extra special. Thanks for a lovely break!

Absolutely loved the lodge! Can't wait to come back and stay again soon.

We had a lovely time at the cabin. The setting was super cosy and perfect for relaxing. The hot tub was a real highlight! Just a heads-up, the listing says theres a washing machine, but there isnt one. Still, wed definitely come back!

The hosts truly went out of their way to make us feel welcome and the place itself was just perfect for a relaxing break. Everything was well thought through and were already planning to come back next year!

The cottage was perfectly situated, surrounded by beautiful countryside, making it a peaceful retreat. Well equipped too!

We stayed just behind Lodge Seventeen, which felt nice and private. The open-plan living area leads straight into the kitchen and its surprisingly roomy. The place is beautifully decorated and fully equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen. The bedroom was a good size, featuring a walk-in wardrobe, bedside tables, a TV and drawers, plus the bathroom was attached - the only one on-site. The bed was incredibly comfy, though at 62, I found it a bit small for two, but it didnt ruin our stay. The hot tub was already heated when we arrived and was well maintained throughout our visit. Wed definitely come back again!

We loved this cosy little cottage - perfect balance between peaceful seclusion and nearby shops. The hot tub was a real highlight and the underfloor heating kept everything warm and comfy. Rob and Sharon are lovely hosts and Bonnies a sweetheart. Cant wait to return for longer!

Pretty decent

Excellent affordable

We stayed at this lodge recently and loved how spacious and comfy it was. The only hiccup was the shower screen being a bit short, which caused some flooding. Luckily, it was easy to tidy up, so wed definitely come back!

We had such a lovely stay at this cosy little spot. The location is truly private and picturesque, perfect for a peaceful break. The owners were super friendly and attentive, always nearby if we needed anything but respecting our privacy completely. The hot tub was a real highlight after a long day cycling around. The only thing to bear in mind is that its right under Stansteds flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It took us a couple of hours to get used to it, but honestly, it didnt ruin the holiday at all. Would definitely recommend!

Great staff, always friendly and ready to help out!

Great holiday, everything you need for a great break away
No WiFi tho was the only downside.

A small and pleasant resort. Staff were friendly and helpful. The lodge was sufficiently maintained and the hot tub a great addition.

Highly recommended and good value for money.

Lovely lodge, and great location for Lake Coniston

A lovely lodge, the site is small but informal.

We had a lovely stay. The lodge was big enough for all of us, the hot tub was a huge bonus and was very luxurious and the park itself was quiet. We would definitely return.
