The gentle creak of timber and the first birdsong through the cabin window — you're somewhere that feels like a proper retreat, even before you've boiled the kettle.

These two chalets suit couples after a weekend away from it all, or small families who want walls and a roof but still that away-from-home feeling. With only two units on site, it's intimate rather than bustling — you won't be queueing for anything or listening to someone else's playlist. The pitch types are glamping pods and chalets, so there's a bit of flexibility depending on your group, and dogs are welcome by arrangement, which matters if you're travelling with four legs as well as two.

Facilities aren't listed in detail, so it's worth asking ahead about what's included and what to bring. Campfires are allowed but check the rules when you arrive — conditions and kit vary. The vibe here is quiet, private, and low-key; if you're after a social scene or lots of onsite activities, this isn't it. But if you want space, silence, and a place that feels like your own for a few nights, S7 & S8 delivers exactly that.

Ullswater Way - Dalemain Loop

Loops through parkland and woodland around the historic Dalemain estate with mostly flat, well-maintained paths suitable for families and buggies on drier sections. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock. Gentle terrain with occasional tree roots makes this an easy outing combining lovely Ullswater views with glimpses of the grand house and its deer park. Perfect for a short leg-stretch between longer lakeside walks, especially in spring when daffodils carpet the grounds.

Aira Force and Gowbarrow Park Trail, Ullswater Valley

National Trust logoNational Trust

Combines woodland paths and open parkland with moderate climbs to reach the dramatic 65-foot Aira Force waterfall via stone bridges and viewpoints. The route includes steep sections and uneven stepped terrain near the falls, making it unsuitable for buggies and challenging for very young children, though older kids usually manage well. Dogs welcome on leads throughout. Spectacular in autumn or after rain when the water thunders down, plus rewarding Ullswater views from Gowbarrow's higher ground.

Eamont Way

Follows the River Eamont through Eden Valley with gentle, mostly flat terrain along riverside paths and quiet lanes. Suitable for families and generally buggy-friendly on paved sections, though some stiles and field gates may require lifting. Dogs welcome but keep on leads near livestock in pastures. Offers peaceful waterside scenery, glimpses of Brougham Castle, and excellent birdwatching opportunities along this accessible, low-level Cumbrian route connecting Ullswater to Penrith.
