Caldbeck is a charming village nestling in the fells of the Northern Lake District, almost equidistant from Keswick, Penrith, Cockermouth, and Carlisle. The area has outstanding scenery and excellent walking, with Skiddaw, Blencathra and many other fine fells readily accessible. Sheep and ducks roam freely, whilst the 12th century St Kentigern's Church is the resting place of the famous local huntsman, John Peel. Marlowe Cottage is the birthplace of Julia Marlowe, an acclaimed American Shakespearian actress. The welcoming village pub, the Oddfellows Arms, is a traditional Lakeland inn serving good food and Jennings real ales, whilst in the neighbouring village of Hesket Newmarket The Old Crown is famous for its unique real ales from the Hesket Newmarket Brewery. The Priests Mill, an old watermill built by a former Rector of Caldbeck houses the Watermill Cafe overlooking the river, together with interesting shops and workshops.

Cumbria - Lake District holiday cottage rental rating 55/5
A Perfect Retreat
Nigel & Denise  Swadlincote
Review Submitted: January 5, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2007
Marlowe Cottage in my opinion can only be described as perfect in every respect. It was immaculately clean, superbly furnished and very comfortable.
The attention to detail is incredible; ranging from fresh flowers around the house, a bowl of fresh fruits and a very nice 'welcome hamper'.
We ordered a meal from the 'drop-off' menu for our arrival which was excellent and very welcome after a long journey. We would highly recommend the food which we believe is home cooked by the owners.
The village of Calbeck is quiet and away from the 'commercialisation' of some of the Lakeland towns and villages but very pretty and friendly. There is good food and beer at the village pub, just short walk away. We didn't see much of the surrounding area, we were so comfortable where we were!
The owners are very helpful and accommodating and despite being 2 hours later than expected arriving they were there to greet us, with logs burning on the stove.
We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing break in luxurious surroundings. We have just booked another stay!

Review Submitted: May 8, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We have just returned from a weeks holiday staying at this wonderful cosy and welcoming cottage. It is furnished and maintained to a very high standard and everything you could wish for is there. The "welcome pack" was superb and all the little special touches make for a fabulous stay.
The owner also provides an evening menu service which is very highly recommended - the home cooked food is delicious, with huge portions! The local pub also has a good menu and is within easy walking distance.

It is away from the more touristy part of the Lakes which is just what we wanted and the local village is very quiet and peaceful. There are plenty of walks in this pretty area and we also took our bikes and didn't find the hills too daunting!

We highly recommend this cottage and are planning a return trip next year.

Marlowe Cottage
Review Submitted: July 15, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
This cottage provided an ideal venue for meeting up with our family .... a half way point between the North of Scotland and the South of England!
This is a well equipped and well maintained cottage with lots of useful additions provided on request ... such as cot and high chair and even toys and books suitable for a 20 month old toddler.
We would recommend that you try Jen's home cooked food for at least one meal ... but don't choose the last evening of your stay ... there was such a sumptious spread, it was as well we had invited local friends who could use the leftovers!
A great place to stay in any weather.
