Hi Christine,

I wanted to drop you a note to tell you how much we enjoyed our stay at Cazenovia Hall.

Every one of our party commented on the level of comfort, detail and warm feel of the house.

We would like to come back again!

We stayed at Hawthorn Retreat for 4 nights and we really enjoyed our stay. Christine is a great host, always responsive, provided clear instructions about check in and about things to do around the property. Place itself is a catch. Surrounded in the woods, at the bank of the river and huge estate. We would definitely stay here again.

Thank you for a fantastic stay. It was so homely and clean. Bathrooms were lush!! We really loved it and the fact that you can walk from the back gate!

A fabulous farm house with fantastic views.
6 Great en suite bedrooms and a large kitchen /dining area with every facility/ utensil you need.
Two wood burners create a great effect, and the fire pit outside was a real bonus for sitting out and star gazing .
Christine is a fabulous host and couldn’t have been more helpful in making our stay memorable.
And the formal dining table can be converted into a snooker table!

We can’t express how perfect our 50th birthday has been and how much we and our guests enjoyed your beautiful property. It created the impression and the event we’d both wanted. The facilities and the overall spec are just second to none and all our guests commented on that.

Thank you for answering all our queries leading up to the event, and for helping to arrange the much needed help from Gail and the lovely young men.

Karen Rhodes catering were beyond excellent, and we’d thoroughly recommend them. The Elysia String Quartet were superb also and gave the ball the atmosphere it needed for us to Waltz around the Byre! Michael Coates events were phenomenal also, and he and his staff were just lovely and everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves doing the clay pigeon shooting, archery and axe throwing. Once again – thank-you for everything. This was just the most perfect of weekends. We hope to stay with you again at some point.

Incredible stay. We have a large family (26 in total, with 14 kids!) and wanted to all be together for a 70th birthday. Before our stay, the owners could not have been more helpful with answering all of our questions and ensuring we had everything we needed for our stay. The accommodation was amazing – great big spaces to all be together, with plenty of smaller snugs and spaces for quieter times, a brilliantly equipped kitchen, great bedroom sizes and plenty of bathrooms. Location is fantastic – would definitely love to come back again!

Super luxurious venue for our family party, which included small children, a baby and dogs. Beautiful location and scenery. Great amenities, a well equipped kitchen, plus super welcome hamper. This was our second visit to one of the Rowley estate properties. Definitely be back.

Perfect place for some peace and quiet amongst beautiful surroundings. Christine’s attention to detail and lovely welcome package made me feel right at home. Was sorry to leave and will hopefully be back again in the future.

This place was absolutely perfect! Such beautiful surroundings, even better than the pictures show. There’s a lovely little river just at the bottom of the bank where the hut is, so nice to wake up to the sounds of running water. It’s super cosy and warm, great shower, comfortable bed and nice little kitchen. We will definitely stay again.

Had a lovely weekend Kirkbride Hall with friends!

The area is stunning, excellent for hiking, walks and disconnecting, and the house is perfect for getting a gang together for a stay away in such a beautiful area.

The rooms were just so comfy (we found the beds were almost impossible to leave in the mornings) and the bathrooms had everything you could want.

Kirkbride Hall was excellent for a gang of friends, but would be great for families and groups with dogs as well. Looking forward to maybe bringing a pup next time!
