Sorry for the late review, we couldn’t of pick a better time for weather if we tried but the lodge was perfect exactly what you need, waking up with the sound of the river and the trees was unreal not to mention the welcome basket. The jam wow, if you are thinking of booking this do it now 👏

A short stay for my birthday, my husband got in touch with Christine beforehand to plan for decorations as a surprise – they were amazing! The cabin is lovely, very cosy with a comfortable bed. Little hamper of supplies on arrival was a treat. Great location, nothing better than sitting on the deck with a cup of tea, listening to nothing but the river, relatively short drive for Keswick and Whinlatter. Would absolutely stay again!

Fantastic property. Beautifully presented. Fantastic welcome basket on arrival. Highly recommended.

Glassonby Old Hall is beautiful, pictures don’t do it justice. It’s a fantastic space for hosting (there were 8 of us). It’s really well kept with a luxury feel. We loved the welcome hamper provided! Added bonus… the snooker table! It’s situated in a great location, with Ullswater lake just 40mins drive away. There’s also plenty of walks nearby, we made use of the various walks listed in the folder provided.

What a find! We thoroughly enjoyed our family holiday at Todd Hills Hall Farm. It has absolutely everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay in Cumbria. Comfy beds, large communal areas, great outdoor space, very equipped kitchen and loads more. Location suited us well in order to visit friends and family as well as explore the lakes. Christine is an excellent host – no question was ever too much and she was very helpful in providing detailed instructions to help us find the property, thanks to a road closure in Langwathby – thankfully it re-opened during our stay, making the trip into the centre of Penrith easy. The welcome hamper is truly amazing and detailed information packs provided were very handed. Really liked the added touches of the local toiletries, recycled toilet paper, toys and books. Thank you for having us.

What a gem of a place, away from all the hustle and bustle and yet only a mere drive to some really great areas. House was perfect for a large family of adults, kids and dog, all rooms were of a high standard with the added bonus all of all rooms being en-suite, finished to a very high standard. Welcome hamper was really well thought out and again of a high standard. Great for taking the dog as there is a enclosed garden that allows the dog to run about, however if you have a small dog they could get through the gate, therefore be careful. Overall one of the best houses and locations that I have booked for a long time.

Amazing place! Just what we wanted.

Such a magical place to stay and celebrate my special birthday. Tastefully furnished, fully equipped and in a beautiful setting. Can’t wait to return.

We visited Stag cottage in August for my mother-in-law’s 60th birthday. We had a fabulous few days and the grounds were beautiful. I was surprised that we also didnt hear any noise from the adjoining Melmerby Hall which was also booked out at the same time. When looking to book the trip I really struggled to find anywhere affordable and high quality so, having stayed at different Rowley properties for both my hen party and the hen party of one of my bridesmaids, I contacted Christine directly to ask if she had anywhere that suited my party and our budget. I’m so glad I did. The cottage was beautiful and well kept and we had plenty of outdoor space to enjoy the “sports day” I organised. There were two dining tables that each fitted the six of us comfortably. I would definitely recommend a stay at either Stag cottage or any other Rowley property and I am sure we will find an excuse to visit again!

We stayed at Todd Hills Hall Farm with other families. We had a wonderful 3 days. The house is beautiful, it a stunning location, comfortable (especially the beds!) , the kitchen is very well equipped and we loved the welcome basket of goodies. We would return and would recommend to anyone
