What a wonderful location for a family celebration. If you want luxury at a reasonable price in the heart of the Lakes this is the place. Secluded but not that far from civilisation with a lovely village pub a short walk away we had a great weekend here. Christine is a great communicator too so don’t hesitate book now, 5 stars from us.

We really enjoyed staying in the Rowan shepherd’s hut, the surrounding countryside was beautiful and the area was very peaceful. Christine was extremely helpful and sent detailed instructions and local recommendations. We used the recommended walks from their website and had some lovely days walking! The hut was well organised, beautifully decorated and had everything we needed to cook for ourselves. It was so cosy that we didn’t mind the days that it rained!

We had a wonderful stay at Riverain . The cottage was very comfortable , beds and linen were super . Everything we could have wanted for a family get together was there , lovely spacious bedrooms , sitting area and garden . The welcome hamper was delicious and so nice to have all local produce .
We could fault nothing and hope to return .
Thank you Christine for all the attention to detail .

Christine and her team know exactly how to give you a warm welcome. The hamper waiting for your arrival has everything you require to settle in and unwind straightaway. The Barn is comfortable and spacious . We also hired Todd hills for a large family gathering. This is our second stay in a Rowley property. Can’t see us choosing anywhere else in the future. Thanks for the great communication regarding the booking. I would highly recommend.

We stayed here for an 80th birthday gathering and all loved it. Plenty of hiding places for the children and lots of safe running space for the dogs. Huge lounge with a crackling fire for the family pub quiz. A good time was had by all.

This is the third property belonging to The Rowley Estates that we have stayed at with varying numbers of family and friends.
Each of them has been well presented with the descriptions being accurate.
The welcome baskets provide useful items – it is always nice to be able to arrive and have a cup of tea before doing anything else!
This time we had some meals provided by Lynn Hilditch’s drop off service which were very good.
We are contemplating a fourth venue for next year – suffice to say, we would recommend any of the properties owned by the Rowley Estates!

Fabulous rental with countryside access , peace and quiet, but an easy ride to the Lakes. The Rowley Estates has thought of everything you might need….all is up to a really high standard. I was impressed and had a great stay.

Amazing, could not fault a single thing!

Our stay was lovely, such a peaceful quiet relaxing place, thank you for having us !

We’ve done quite a few multi-generational weekends away over the years, and Blencowe Hall was by far the best we’ve stayed in.

The house itself is stunning, full of character but also incredibly comfortable. The rooms are beautifully decorated and the kitchen is very well equipped, which made catering for a large group so much easier.

Christine was a fantastic host, really responsive and helpful throughout, and nothing was too much trouble.

A perfect place for a big family gathering, we’ll definitely be back!
