Escape the everyday and enjoy some quality time together at Calf Lonning Caravan, Plumbland, a welcoming family retreat on a small, family-run park of just 30 caravans. Tucked away in a peaceful position just off the village street, it’s an ideal choice for families looking to relax away from the busier Lake District resorts while keeping the coast, countryside and family attractions within easy reach.
Days can be as laid-back or adventure-filled as you like. Pack a picnic and head to Allonby’s sandy beach, enjoy fish and chips while watching the sun set over the Solway Firth, or spend the day exploring Keswick and Derwentwater. For forest adventures, walking and cycling, Whinlatter Forest is easily accessible, while Cockermouth and Maryport offer plenty more ideas for family days out.
Back at the caravan, you can enjoy a relaxed evening together or simply stroll to the Last Man Inn, conveniently located next door for refreshments.
Steps lead up to the decking and into the bright open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area, creating a sociable space for the whole family. Settle onto the comfy seating for a film on the Smart TV, warm up beside the gas fire on cooler evenings or gather around the dining table to plan tomorrow’s adventures. The kitchen has everything needed for easy holiday meals, including a gas cooker, fridge/freezer and microwave. There are two bedrooms: a double bedroom with its own en-suite WC and a compact twin bedroom that’s ideal for children. A separate shower room with hand basin completes the accommodation.
Outside, the decking has a table and chairs where you can enjoy breakfast in the fresh air or a drink on a summer evening. Private parking for one car is provided, and gas, electricity, bed linen and towels are all included.
One of the joys of staying at Calf Lonning is being able to enjoy a quieter corner of Cumbria without feeling cut off. Aspatria is just 2.6 miles away, with shops, takeaways, pubs and a railway station offering connections along the Cumbrian coast and to Carlisle.
The seaside towns of Allonby and Maryport are around 8 miles away, Cockermouth is approximately 7 miles, and Loweswater and Keswick are around 15 miles away, putting the Solway Coast and western and northern Lake District within easy reach. Family days out are plentiful. Discover the childhood home of William Wordsworth in Cockermouth, visit the aquarium and marina at Maryport, tackle the trails and Go Ape at Whinlatter Forest, or head to Keswick for attractions, walks and watersports on Derwentwater. Carlisle is also within easy reach for shopping, its historic castle, cathedral and museum.
Whether your perfect family holiday means building sandcastles on the beach, exploring the Lake District, enjoying woodland adventures or simply slowing down and spending time together, Calf Lonning Caravan provides a comfortable and peaceful base from which to enjoy it all.
