Make May the time to visit the Tranquil Otter

Wake-up to the dawn chorus, open the curtains to Thurstonfield Lough and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Cumbrian Countryside. It’s the perfect time to escape and make the most of the great outdoors. Hear the woodpecker and get closely acquainted with Cumbria's bird life.

Each of our Visit Britain accredited five star lodges have fantastic access that can accommodate wheelchairs, have all modern conveniences (including WiFi) and their own private deck, complete with private hot-tub. A perfect way to indulge yourself.

The Tranquil Otter offers self-catering lodges on the shore of Thurstonfield Lough, each one surrounded by beautiful woodland and breathtaking natural beauty. We are an ideal destination for a romantic getaway, a luxury break or a family holiday.

Whether it is just the two of you looking for quality time together, with family or with friends; there is much to do and see. Hadrian's Wall path is walking distance, the Solway Area of Natural Oustanding Beauty is great for cycling, Carlisle with its Roman Gallery and beautiful Catherdral is a short drive away, as is Gretna Green.

There is something for everyone with comfort and luxury at home, a nature reserve outside your door and the very best of Cumbria and the Lake District just beyond.
