I have had positive experiences with both Radicale and Baikal. I am not sure about the Home Assistant integration, but they both use CalDAV, so I would be surprised if there wasn’t a way of connecting them. iOS has native support for CalDAV, but Android needs the davx5 app (free on F-Droid).
I've found radicale more stable in my implementation, but both are very good and are pretty similar to use.
If you already have NextCloud/OwnCloud it would be a good to use the Calendar that is already built in, but it doesn't make sense to install those for a calendar when there are better options available.
I tried both and for some reason Baikal just played nicer. I'm sure either is fine though.
Nextcloud was too bulky for my needs.
Tasks.org also works great with CalDAV. On f-droid as well.
