We loved our stay in this adorable Shepherd’s Hut. The bed was king size, very comfortable and we slept incredibly well. It is very well equipped with fridge, gas hob and cooker and was lovely and warm inside. The shower is also a good size with good pressure in the ensuite bathroom, and there is a huge space under the bed for suitcases and to tuck other things away. We would definitely stay here again as the outside space is fantastic overlooking the river with three seating areas including the BBQ area. Highly recommend.

Beautiful, spacious house in a gorgeous location. So peaceful. We loved the walled garden and the views of the village church.

Spent a lovely short break at Gill Beck with my husband, 3 children and dog. Beautiful spacious property with everything we needed. Garden was fantastic for the children and the dog to play. Welcome basket and extra touches were much appreciated and we enjoyed the local produce including taking advantage of complimentary raspberry picking nearby. Would 100% recommend.

Don’t often leave reviews, however we were taken back by how peaceful, cosy, clean and at home we felt during our stay. We had 1 query during our stay and Christine answered right away. Highly recommend

So much more than we were expecting.
The woodland drive, which lets you leave the outside world behind to stepping onto the decking and being greeted by views of nothing but the natural landscape.
Opening the door and entering you feel relaxed.
Everything you need is there, the welcome pack was lovely, probably the best coffee I’ve had and the raspberry jam IS the best I’ve ever had.
The beds are really comfortable, and we had such lovely nights sleep every night.
We will definitely be returning again.

We had a wonderful stay, the location was idyllic. It was so peaceful and secluded, the bed was comfortable and the hut had everything you could need. It was easy to find, Christine sent very clear instructions and some recommendations of things to see and do in the local area. The property was easy to access and the EV charger was incredibly handy. Breakfast items were provided, artisan bread and muesli, local eggs and organic juice, tea and coffee all very much appreciated our first morning after a long drive. I would highly recommend a stay here if you’re looking for peace and quiet, a very comfortable stay with a surprisingly good shower after a day out exploring the lake District.

I have just returned from an amazing three night stay at Melmerby Hall and Stag Cottage. A vast accommodation with large kitchen and breakfast area, several sitting rooms, multiple bedrooms with ensuite/shared bathrooms with a mix of single and double beds. Would be a stunning venue for weddings or functions and hope to be back in the future.

Lovely house in a great location. Plenty of space and well equipped. Excellent communication and very helpful host. Good sized bedrooms and plenty of parking. Would recommend for family gatherings.

Amazing retreat! Super peaceful and we had the best time! Thank you to Christine for the little touches, recommendations and the wonderful shepherds hut experience!

The Riverain property at the edge of the Lake District is well located. Ullswater, Keswick and a 30 min drive to Ambleside and Windermere are within easy reach. We went as a family of 5 adults, so 3 beds and 3 bathrooms was essential. The layout worked really well for us. Riverain is well equipped and the welcome hamper was perfect. No complaints, we would definitely return, especially well catered for with EV Chargers.
