Fantastic getaway in such a peaceful spot, hut is pleasantly spacious and has everything you could need for a good base in the lakes

Beautiful venue, brilliant location, Mother-in-law and Father-in-law had their wedding here and it was magical. Highly recommended 😁

We enjoyed our stay at elm retreat lovely surroundings very peaceful all we could hear were the birds whistling in the trees. The shepherds hut was clean and cosy and the food hamper was very nice. A shame no ice compartment in the fridge as the weather was extremely hot also a parasol on the outdoor decking would have been perfect. Thankyou Christine for our wedding anniversary card it was much appreciated. We would love to come back in the future.

I could not have asked for a more peaceful getaway! – It was perfect.

The hut itself is stunning and has everything you’d possibly need.

100% recommend and already looking at going back again soon!

Absolutely gorgeous place to stay – we had a wonderful time thanks to Christine at this location. Beautifully peaceful, with everything you could need at the home, and with stunning views all around the house. You are also close to Ullswater and a river for swimming with plenty of hiking possible too.

We had a lovely long weekend stay at Elm retreat. The hut is located in an extremely peaceful setting, surrounded by greenery. Birds and the small river at the bottom of the hill are all you can hear. The hut was kitted out with some amazing local produce generously supplied by Christine. We were ideally located to explore the areas around Ullswater and Derwent Water with Penrith really close for larger shops. We left feeling really refreshed and would definitely recommend for anyone wanting a peaceful getaway or a hub to explore the northern Lakes. Thank you, Christine!
