The Oak Retreat was an amazing hut to stay in. It is close to another shepherds hut it shares the small fenced “forest” with but gives you lots of privacy. A welcome breakfast basket was a great surprise, and the jam was the best we have had! 😍 the location is a perfect start-point to explore the Lake District with most of the best hikes within 30-50mins drive. Recommended 100%

We stayed at Glassonby hall over the Easter weekend for 5 nights and loved it so much we stayed longer. Glassonby was absolutely perfect for us and had everything we could wish for.
The house was exceptionally clean, something that I put as a top priority when looking for somewhere to stay. The kitchen was so well equipped that we had more than enough of items and it made preparing an Easter lunch nice and easy, there wasn’t one thing that we wish we had brought with us. The house was so lovely and warm; which for a big place I was concerned about. The beds were comfortable and the bedding was extremely high quality.
The gift basket was so lovely to receive and it was really appreciated. Since leaving I have had to source and buy some bags of the the muesli!!
Any problems that we did encounter were quickly dealt with and questions were answered in this manner too.
The surrounding area was beautiful, it allowed you to relax and breathe.
The walks nearby were wonderful, aided by all the information on hand in the property.
We loved it here . Thankyou very much. We are so glad we found you.

Was a fantastic experience 👏 will definitely be booking agen

Beautiful location and cottages exactly as described. Very comfortable. fully kitted out, enough space for everybody and we had a wonderful time celebrating my mum ‘s 90th. I would highly recommend to anybody.

Five of us plus two dogs had a lovely couple of days break at Stag cottage. It was spotlesslessly clean and very comfortable. I celebrated my 80th birthday and it was great to sit around the roaring fire in the evenings, pity the weather wasn’t great. We ate a delicious lunch at the village bakery and café as the village. pub wasn’t open. We enjoyed dog walks through the wods with bluebells scenting the air and the dogs were safe in the enclosed garden. Nothing was forgotten, even dog bowls. Wish we could have stayed for longer

Thai is a wonderful place to stay such a lovely location 😊

Our stay on Todds Hill Farm was perfect for our family gathering. The location was beautiful and the house was superb – the pictures did not do it justice and it provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Christine was wonderful. She was communicative throughout the booking process and during our stay and was helpful in providing information for the local area.

Another lovely stay with Rowley Estates. Cazenovia is an excellent property and we were fortunately available to also book adjacent Wythburn for our family holiday. Best aspect for us is that every bedroom has en-suite facilities which is rare in a large property. We were blessed with sunny dry weather so enjoyed some excellent walking nearby but also in the Lake District which is very accessible. The pub in Greystoke is traditional with lovely food and a large beer garden which is popular with locals. Another benefit is that it is within easy walking distance from the cottages. We recommend highly “The Chippie Van” that visits Greystoke every 2 weeks. You can order online and collect on the evening and give the family chefs a night off. Both cottages are very well equipped and comfortably furnished. We also appreciated the generous outdoor seating areas and well maintained gardens. A special bonus is that kindling and logs are plentiful and included in the price. I’ve checked with all who came on the holiday and without exception all 14 of us agree that these are the nicest properties we have experienced in recent years. Highly recommended by us all.

A lovely property furnished to a very high standard. We also were able to rent adjacent Cazenovia Hall so please also see my comments on that property. Thank you to all at Rowley Estates for accommodating us at short notice. We had an excellent family holiday and appreciated the good location with easy access to The Lakes and Penrith. We would love to return but are also tempted by the impressive alternatives offered by Rowley Estates.
