Your countryside escape awaits

A Place We Loved Before It Was Ours

Artlegarth is much more than just a place to stay. Before we became the owners, we had already spent time here ourselves and experienced everything that makes this part of the countryside so special.

Now, as a family-run business, we are proud to share Artlegarth with our guests and provide a welcoming place for people to relax, explore and make lasting memories.

From the moment you arrive, we want Artlegarth to feel like somewhere you can truly switch off and enjoy your time away like we have when staying at the Artlegarth Lodges.

Between Two Beautiful National Parks

Perfectly positioned where the Lakes meet the Dales, Artlegarth gives you the opportunity to discover some of the most beautiful countryside in the UK.

Why not spend your days exploring scenic walks, nearby villages and local attractions before returning to your lodge and relaxing in your private hot tub.

So, whether you want an adventure-filled break or a quieter countryside escape, there is plenty to enjoy right on your doorstep.

  • We had the most amazing break! We were a group of 5 girls looking to chill out and enjoy some walks and this was the perfect place. Short or long walks right from the door with maps provided. Loads of room, each room had a bathroom, beds really comfy, loads of towels and toiletries. Arriving to find the most delicious sponge cake, fresh homemade bread, eggs, milk, butter etc was a really lovely touch and so welcoming. We are definitely booking again!

  • Such a peaceful spot! The lodge is really warm and comfortable, with all the bits and bobs you need for a few days a way. We appreciated the extra towels for the hot tub and the utility area was great for drying damp towels, boots and coats. We were blessed with 2 red squirrels outside on our last morning too!

  • What a beautiful place to stay. We stayed here for our family break for a couple of years now and throughly enjoyed the experience. The lodge is a generous size for 6 adults and a baby. The hot tub is fabulous to relax in with such beautiful views. Jack is a wonderful host. I have just booked again for next year, we can’t wait to return. Thank you Jennie and Jack.

  • Such a special place for a fabulous break away. The location and views are amazing, the lodges are so welcoming with log fires and hot tubs. They have everything you need. I have been coming for over 7 years and have stayed in every lodge – each one a little different but all maintained to a high standard. Jennie and the staff team are fantastic and can’t do enough for you. Highly recommend.

  • These Lodges are absolutely fantastic. The setting is beautiful and the service is amazing. The Lodges have all the amenities and the little extra touches like providing us with eggs and bread etc makes it even better. We stayed at Mallard Cottage which is next to a red squirrel conservation area and we saw red squirrels. The hot tub was marvelous too. There is also a short walk to a lake with birds. Highly recommended.

  • This was our first stay in this location. Stayed in Rough Fell lodge with friends and it was simply perfect. The lodge was immaculate, well kitted out and extremely spacious for 5 adults and 2 dogs! We were welcomed with fresh bread, milk and some gorgeous cake which was such a nice touch. The hot tub was a luxury to have after a long walk and the beds were super comfy. We all said we would definitely come again – thank you for the perfect weekend getaway.

    We love it and come back every year on our girls’ weekend away. Hot tub and chats are on the agenda!
    The roaring log fire and comfortable settees are great to relax in after a big walk.

  • What a wonderful place to stay! We stayed in Lapwing Lodge, which felt really cosy and comfortable, which made us feel at home. A lovely chocolate cake and home made bread was provided, which was very much appreciated. The beds are also very comfortable and we all loved having the hot tub to soak in after long walks. It is a great spot to base yourself for sightseeing in the Dales.

  • Superb accommodation in a brilliant location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in our fantastically equipped lodge as our base for our son and daughter-in-law’s wedding nearby. Only wish we could have stayed longer and made fuller use of all the excellent facilities. Maybe next time?
