One of the best holiday cottages we have visited. Rather like a self catering boutique hotel.

This has to be one of the most luxurious family holidays we have ever had. So clean, so spacious and don’t just sleep 16/18 of us. It fitted you comfortable throughout the house. When organising a large group for a holiday again in England no need to look anywhere else. Absolutely lovely and Christian and the Rowley Estates team looked after us so well. Highly recommend.

I woke up in this beautiful little retreat on my birthday. It is really special and such an antedote to the noise and demands of modern life. From the woodburner keeping the place super cosy, to the brilliantly simple and comfortable table/bed and the personal touches like freshly baked bread, locally produced coffee and homemade jam. The little wood the hut is in is very nice and we were able to drive into it and park our van right next to the Larch retreat. Cows and sheep as neighbours, wide open spaces and very well placed to visit any part of the Lake district. As for romantic…don’t get me started!
Thank you

Lovely place! Very relaxing.

Larch Retreat is nestled in the most peaceful little woodland and has great views across the northern Lake District. We loved waking up to views of a snowy Blencathra from the warmth of the shepherds hut. Christine was a great host and we found the hut very easily. It was also brilliant having milk, butter, bread and tea provided as we arrived quite late after work and hadn’t had time to pick up those supplies for breakfast. We also made the most of the fire pit and wood provided and stayed out to watch the Taurid meteor shower. We would definitely recommend a stay in Larch Retreat.

If I could award 6 stars I would.
Jenny’s Croft is a quality property, tastefully decorated to the highest standard with all the amenities you could want.
The staff at Rowley Estates could not have been more helpful or friendly and the welcome hamper was extensively stocked with quality local products. I will definitely stay in a Rowley Estates property again.

This is the second time we have used Elk Cottage and follows a number of stays in Rowley Estate properties. We have always experienced extremely comfortable stays and all the arrangements in connection with the bookings have been carried fully and efficiently. We would strongly recommend Rowley Estates

We had a lovely time, Gill Beck Barn is well worth the money. Very clean with a well equipped kitchen. Lounge area is very comfortable. Fantastic hamper on arrival. Lovely and hopefully we will return when visiting the area again.
