Just another 5 star review to add to the collection! Gill Beck Barn is a superb property, on a quiet road in a stunning location. It was spotlessly clean with massive comfy beds, fluffy towels, posh smellies, welcome hamper, underfloor heating and an Aga kicking it out 24/7. A great property for dog owners too; as soon as you pull off the road, shut the double gates to the private parking area and your dog has the run of a huge garden/small paddock, stock fenced all round. Also, outdoor heated dog shower! Christine was a very responsive host and it felt like they had thought of everything. A perfect stay.

larch retreat is a beautiful little hideaway with gorgeous views and a lovely welcome gift. Christine is a wonderful host who is always happy to help. thank you so much.

Gem of a place, clean and well equipped with everything you need. Very comfortable, the welcome hamper was a lovely treat .Would highly recommend if peace and quiet is what you want.

We spent 10 nights in the Shepherds Cabin over Xmas. Having travelled from Malaysia and not used to the cold, we were delighted to find the cabin was cosy and warm. The fit out was at a high standard, in very good condition and very clean. The local produce Christine and her team provided was welcome and tasty! The only negative for us was the lack of space in the bedrooms, not an issue if you have small overnight bags but we had 2 large suitcases for a 2 week trip. But we managed and loved the peace and tranquility of the forest. Would certainly visit again in future.

Very lovely, amazing views! Everything you need and more

We booked Blencowe Hall to celebrate my 50th bday with family, 19 of us in total. The most beautiful house, comfy beds, well equipped kitchen- we had the most fabulous stay and didn’t want to leave.

Christine was extremely helpful and responsive. The place is a gem, perfect for our family gathering.

Our first trip to the Lake District was incredible and was made even more special staying at the Oak Retreat. Cozy, comfortable and quiet. Loved the breakfast and log burner and a great nights sleep after a long day of hiking. Deserves all the praise it receives!
