Thanks for the lovely retreat, stunning location and made us feel very close to nature

A lovely stay in Stag Cottage recently – have stayed before in one of the Rowley Estate cottages that are of a high standard. Plenty of room for the family. Clean and well-kept. Beds comfortable. Welcome hamper excellent. Eden valley a lovely location.

Kirkbride Hall is an absolute recommendation! The house is large, beautifully decorated and the kitchen better equipped than our home! Beds at their finest! And the garden invites you to linger!

Wanted to have a movie night for the kids in the evening and needed an HDMI cable, was provided in no time! Simply great service!

Had an absolutely wonderful time at the Hawthorn Retreat. Very clear communication from Christine, very clean, and overall a beautiful place to stay. Could not reccomend anymore!

The Larch retreat is truly a paradise for anyone looking for a place to stay whilst exploring the lake district! It is such a peaceful and remote location, and is the perfect place to get away from all the noise of the lake district in the holidays. It is care that the Rowley estates team have put a lot of effort into making this place special, and they show dedication and support to whoever choses to stay with them! Would recommend 100%!

We had the most relaxing and beautiful stay here for a few days in August that we truly did not want to leave. The hut is so comfortable with absolutely everything you may need included. We arrived to a lovely welcome hamper which was greatly appreciated. We were super lucky with the weather and managed to use the outdoor space which was equipped with seating, a BBQ and a great firepit! The surrounding area is great and very close to many pubs and 20 minute drive to Keswick. We most enjoyed having the doors open in the morning and looking at the view whilst lay in bed with a cup of tea…absolutely bliss. Thank you so much to Rowley estates for making our stay so wonderful and we cannot wait to return!

We had a group of friends and our dogs. It was a lovely week and the property is spacious and well appointed.

I could write pages about Kirkbride Hall. It was absolutely fantastic with lots of space for 8 adults and 3 dogs . We felt totally at home in such a peaceful and beautiful setting. The amazing hamper was fantastic even going over and above to let us have more of the delicious jam. Nothing was too much trouble , we felt very looked after. The whole house was immaculate and a large gardens for the dogs to run around. All the information provided was spot on and really helpful Very very comfy beds and the bathrooms were fantastic. I can’t say enough about the location and the house and would 100% recommend as the most perfect base for travelling around the Lake District. We were fortunate to have some beautiful weather to fully appreciate the surroundings and to have a bbq The locals were so friendly towards us even helping with providing a light to walk back from the lovely Shepherds Inn which I would recommend as the food is amazing and a great atmosphere. Thank you

Lovely scenic surroundings and private location

Beautiful place that made us feel right at home, the place was spotless and everything was as described. Christine was very responsive and had left us clear instructions on how to find the accommodation and check in. Beautiful hamper of breakfast items along with a booklet full of local recommendations which we found very helpful for getting around. 10/10 would definitely go back!
