Fantastic holiday house. We had a great time. The house is in the perfect location, secluded but in easy reach of lots of activities, restaurants and shops. The house is presented beautifully and has everything you need. It was incredibly clean and had great bed linen. We also really appreciated the thoughtful touches, such as the delicious welcome hamper and information packs about the local area.

We just wanted to say, a huge thank you to you and everyone involved in preparing Melmerby Hall and Stag Cottage for our stay. The effort and thought put in to making it a fantastic experience is thoroughly appreciated. We had the best time creating memories that will be with us forever. My Mum couldn’t of enjoyed her 70th more. Thank you so much.

Hello Christine,

Wow, Wow, Wow,

Just wanted to let you know what a fantastic time we had this week in our Shephards Hut. Absolutely stunning location and beautiful Hut. Compliments to everyone. The Hut was perfectly set out, with everything we needed, from the welcome hamper to the fire pit and very comfortable bed.
The best place we have ever stayed in, over 30 years of holidaying in the U.K.
An amazing place you have created.

Also a massive thank you to Jill and the other ladies who on our departure showed us round the Hall. What an incredible building, please pass on our thanks, they were so nice and we chatted for ages.

A truly lovely holiday in a stunning place.

Thank you

We had a lovely stay at Cazenovia Hall. There was great communication prior to our stay. The property was clean and well stocked on arrival. The rooms are all a good size with plenty of storage space. The sofas are comfy and the patio is a great little suntrap. The location and surrounding area is absolutely beautiful. Our boys enjoyed playing in the little stream in the garden and we were able to do a great circular walk with a stop in the pub in Greystoke for lunch. Well located for Lowther Castle and horseriding at Bank House Equestrian, but I think, far enough away form the main hubs so it’s pretty quiet for the Lakes. We’d definitely stay here again next time we’re in the Lake District. Thanks very much!!

My family and friends have stayed at Melmerby many times over the years. It is an amazing Hall whether for a big occasion or a family gathering. The quality of the furnishings and amenities are top notch,! we will definitely be back

Beautiful place! It’s small but has everything you need (if you can live without hair straighteners for a few days, I just about managed!) and is beautifully furnished and clean. The riverbank location is stunning, we sat round the fire pit every night and saw hares and a deer and all kinds of birds – it’s so quiet and relaxing. The booking and check in was completely hassle free and I was delighted with the welcome pack and the personal touch of a birthday card. It’s a short drive to the bottom of the Blencathra hike, handy for Penrith and Keswick, and the pub in the village is really nice too.

We had a fabulous stay. The property and surrounding area is stunning. Very luxurious, great hamper, great communication. Thank you

Elk cottage is immaculately clean, comfortable and warm. It has all the essentials and more, a fantastic location, lovely garden with great views and everything is good quality. I don’t think the photos do it justice. Christine was very communicative so the stay ran like clockwork. We will definitely stay at a Rowley Estates property again.
