We were blown away by Larch Retreat, the views from the windows in the morning are breathtaking! Felt very cosy and peaceful there. The trip was everything we expected and more. Highly recommend this place!

We really enjoyed our stay it was beautiful and very peaceful !

It was a very peaceful and lovely cabin like the pictures. We enjoyed the bbq and silence a lot, why not to come one more time for that!

A lovely place to stay, nice and peaceful.

Really friendly and responsive host, Accommodation was exactly as described and great attention to detail, the surroundings were picturesque and the accommodation was perfectly situated. Would highly recommend and won’t hesitate to return. The price for the accommodation and amenities was reasonable and we could not fault anything about our stay.

Everything was perfect, especially the lovely hamper. Also, the bathroom accessories were very welcome, and made our stay that little bit extra special.

We were so delighted with Elk Cottage, the standard of all the rooms was superb and well worth the cost. Also, just to let you know that we are very pleased to have given you a review on your google page, and we would definitely book again.

Christine and her team are amazing . From the beginning of the booking to our departure , nothing was too much trouble .
The hamper is 5 star all local produce .
The cleanliness and the amount of kitchen supplies is truly remarkable .
There is nothing missing !! Loads of suggestions for eating out and walks . Charcoal for the barbecue and wood for fire pit in abundance .
A truly remarkable find !!
Thank you

A wonderful house for our family group of 18, coming together from all over the country, to celebrate a 40th wedding anniversary. The 8 children pretty much entertained themselves, playing games of tag and hide and seek (the perfect house for it!), football, croquet, exploring down by the stream, giving guided tours to the ‘ghost’ in the cellar (we took one with us). Hardly a phone to be seen. Which left the 10 adults plenty of time to catch up, mainly sitting around the lovely long breakfast table. The snooker table was a huge hit with everyone. There was so much to do that we scarcely noticed the overcast weather. Catering was shared between everyone, made easier by having two dishwashers, and plenty of fridge, freezer and larder space. We loved the choice of bedrooms, with so much character in all of them.

What can I say – absolutely perfect!! We had the most amazing, peaceful weekend at Rowan Retreat. The surrounding area is beautiful, we didn’t venture much as we were just quite happy relaxing by the fire pit listening to the river and embracing a true digital detox! Lovely drive up to Hadrians Wall on the Sunday, again, stunning location. Christine was super helpful throughout and the breakfast hamper left for us was lush! Everything you need for a chilled escape away. Would recommend to anyone and will hopefully visit again one day! Thank you so much!
