Reviews

High standard of self catering accommodation in a quiet rural setting. Great local walks are available and the Lake District is just down the road if you would like to explore what it has to offer

Very well equipped cottage in a quiet village location, but lots to do within easy reach. We had a great week and look forward to coming back.

Elk cottage is immaculately clean, comfortable and warm. It has all the essentials and more, a fantastic location, lovely garden with great views and everything is good quality. I don’t think the photos do it justice. Christine was very communicative so the stay ran like clockwork. We will definitely stay at a Rowley Estates property again.

We had a wonderful week at Elk Cottage during mid-August. Each week since then I have reflected on what a good time we had in what was a comfortable, extremely well appointed and secure environment and it is time to commit that to a review to assist others in their decision making. The property is exactly as advertised on the various websites, is easily accessible and whilst sharing grounds is sufficiently private and was safe/secure for our young grand daughter and our dog. Management staff were on hand to deal quickly with any queries and issues and to advise on local activities and beauty spots; excellent. It was a true home from home in that all our needs were anticipated: we wanted for nothing. Thanks.

So, thanks to our hosts and we look forward to our return.

Wonderful cottage to stay for some rest far from everything. Nice and clean. Loved fireplace. Had a great time thank you.

A wonderful stay at a perfect location. Lovely rooms and great for dogs. Brilliant hamper. Absolutely 5 star!!

Wow ! The Rowley estates were recommended by my friend, resulting in us booking Elk cottage to celebrate new year and we absolutely did ! Amazing cottage, luxurious bedrooms, dining room, wood burner , absolutely everything you need for a fabulous weekend. All logs provided for fire ( not had that before) charcoal for the bbq provided too and we did use it on New Year’s Eve. The hamper was amazing too. I have no faults at all ! But just a note for other dog owners. We took our dog an 18 month old boxer,. There is a small enclosed area leading from the utility room! Fantastic for small dogs but our dog would have easily leaped between the gate and wall. There wasn’t an enclosed area for us to let him him run. I absolutely loved getting him on his lead and walking him at night the clear skies and stars are amazing !! As I say not a negative just something to be aware of. I would absolutely visit again and can5 thank rowley esates enough
