“Modern, clean and very beautiful cottage.”

Really enjoyed our stay and the kids did not want to leave after 5 days. The location is excellent for those who want a very quiet and relaxing rural retreating, away from everything as it is a secluded location. Would definitely go back.

“Great place to stay, peaceful and very quiet but in easy access of The South Lakes.”

Very clean, good facilities and comfortable. Nice and warm on cold evenings. Only issue we had was the water pressure dropped on our last night and we are not sure if that was to do with other people arriving in the other lodges. Would definitely stay again

“Property was lovely and clean.”

However we encountered an issue with the oven which tripped the electrics. This has obviously been an ongoing issue as there was a sign advising not to use certain appliances at the same time as it would trip. As a consequence we could not cook any food. The owner reimbursed us for the cost of a takeaway. However the location meant we had to make unnecessary trips out as a family at additional cost as there wasn’t anything nearby to eat. We’d also purchased food to be cooked in the oven which was frozen and that had to be thrown away as we hadn’t brought anything suitable to transport it home. Additional unnecessary cost and we were refunded £34 for one takeaway. We also had to have our stay interrupted by the maintenance team coming to measure for a new oven , appreciate they need to do this in order to fix it but it didn’t help us feel settled and relaxed. Really disappointed as we had to completely change our plans and go out when the intention was to stay in and not travel (which I do for a living hence needing the break). Lodge and location are lovely, shame about the issue we encountered letting it down.

“Ooking arrangements were very straightforward.”

We had a very peaceful, relaxing stay. The lodge had excellent facilities and was very clean and modern with all required appliances. The views from the location were fabulous. It would be lovely to visit again during the summer months. Thank you!

About the location

ARKHOLME

Kirkby Lonsdale 6 miles; Kendal 18 miles.

The quiet village of Hornby, in the lovely Lune Valley, is bordered by the famous Lake District to the north, and the Yorkshire Dales to the east. A delightful village, set on an old pack-horse route, Hornby is situated close to where the River Wenning joins the River Lune. Hornby Castle is set on a high hill overlooking the river and is known as the subject of one of Turner's best-loved paintings. Consisting of a scattering of traditional houses, a beautiful Anglican church, two pubs and a local Post Office with tea room, there are several 'undiscovered' quiet walks around the village and other, more frequented walks and places of interest close by. Nearby Kirkby Lonsdale is a popular town, with the Old Devil's Bridge a delightful spot to stop for a coffee beside the River Lune, while a number of antique shops and curios can be found in the town, along with an excellent selection of restaurants and pubs. 'Ruskin's View' can also be accessed from Kirkby Lonsdale, where you may walk in the famous artist’s footsteps and experience the views that inspired him.
