The deck provides ample room for outdoor dining and relaxation. Central heating keeps the lodge comfortable in all seasons. The contemporary design maximises natural light whilst maintaining a cosy atmosphere for evenings in after Dales adventures.
Pet Friendly
Curlew does not accept pets. The property maintains a pet-free policy for all bookings. Guests with dogs should look for alternative accommodation in the area that welcomes animals.
