Amazing, could not fault a single thing!

We really enjoyed our stay at the larch retreat! The location was beautiful and the accommodation was really well appointed. The bed was extremely comfy and we really enjoyed all the cosy amenities including the wood fire burner.. the perfect place to come back to after a long walk. Would highly recommend and we hope to come again!

We really enjoyed our stay! It was perfect for what we needed to explore the Lake District. The shepherds hut has stunning views across the surrounding fields and feels very private in your own woodland area. We loved the log burner which made the colder mornings feel very cosy. The welcome hamper was a perfect touch and made us feel instantly at home! Christine is very helpful and responsive.

Absolutely loved my stay at Larch Retreat!! Very peacefully environment, with good amenities! Lots to do nearby!! Climbed Grisdale Pike and Skiddaw, went mountain biking round Whinlatter Forest and even stayed in and baked some bread too! Would definitely recommend and book again!!

Such a lovely space to stay! When we got there there was such lovely local produce out for us and the place was just perfect. We went in February so made good use of the log burner and was just the perfect get away! Christine was very helpful and friendly with lots of local recommendations and easy to reach if needed! Couldn’t recommend more!

Always our go to place when we visit

We lived our stay here, the most peaceful location and perfect distance from the nearest town for shops etc. The added touch of local produce and necessities already in the hut made us feel very welcome.

Very good lived up too the expectations!

5 stars!

We had an incredible 4-day stay in this superb shepherd’s hut in the Lake District. It was the perfect escape from London quiet, secluded, peaceful, with only fields, hills and sheep around. You sleep like a baby. The hut is spotless, well insulated, modern, smartly designed, yet still feels authentic and cosy. The bed is very comfortable and large (king size) and the kitchen has everything you need, even better than at mine. The bathroom is surprisingly luxurious with a great shower (not a crappy mouldy plastic one) and all toiletries you will need. The central heating system is super modern, and we were always warm after our hikes. Christine is a great host: responsive, warm, and so professional. She had the log burner ready for us to light on arrival, a 5 star touch after a cold wet day and a 6-hour drive. Christine also offered early check-in and late checkout. Honestly, this place made our trip. A perfect retreat I can only strongly recommend. Thank you, Christine! Isa & Cat x
