I booked this hut for my girlfriend’s birthday and wow, it did not disappoint. Inside the hut was incredible, very spacious and had everything we needed and more! We literally didn’t need to bring anything. We couldn’t believe that The host left us bread, butter, jam, milk, fresh bread, muesli, tea, eggs, coffee and Cumbrian apple juice which we loved so much! The location of this hut was beautiful, we loved just sitting by the stream and listening to nature, it felt very private and secluded. We loved using the fire pit and barbecue, and all wood and coal was there to use which was brilliant. Overall I think this hut was very good value for money, and would not hesitate to come back and stay again 😊
Thank you so much again! 🙌
We even loved walking past the sheep everyday! 🐑

I couldn’t have improved on this place if I’d tried. It’s so beautiful, the house is stunning, the area is stunning, it made for the most perfect birthday weekend c

We had the most incredible peaceful stay in this beautiful shepherd’s hut. From the moment we arrived, it felt like the perfect escape — quiet, cosy, and surrounded by stunning scenery. The hut itself was beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Every little detail had clearly been thought about, making it feel both luxurious and homely at the same time.
Waking up to the peaceful surroundings and relaxing in such a tranquil setting was exactly what we needed. We left feeling completely refreshed and already can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing countryside getaway!

beautiful Airbnb, in a great location – really peaceful and the Christine was a very helpful host

Thank you for a great stay. The hut was filled with local products which we really appreciated. The local area is very calm with lots of walks and pubs to visit

Absolutely beautiful place, gorgeous surroundings.
Everything so well thought out – from the layout of the rooms, tasteful decor, to the linen, towels and makeup flannels! A well stocked welcome hamper awaited us on arrival with locally sourced produce.
Host Christine was on hand to answer any queries we had around check in and check out.
We will definitely be returning – a new favourite to add to our lakes list!

Rowan Retreat shepherd’s hut is such a great place to chill and renew yourself.
Ultra clean, well stocked and peaceful.
Highly recommend it.

Stayed here in the summer of 2025 and had the most amazing family time break, just what we all needed, so much so have just booked for summer 2026.

Stunning accommodation in a peaceful area. Everything you need for a comfortable self catering stay. Easy check in and check out. Easy to find. Some essentials left for our arrival which was a nice touch.

Beautiful stay! Being able to hear the river when you open the bedroom window was so relaxing and felt so secluded. The selection of local produce that was left for us was amazing and we ate it for breakfast each day. Our first time in the Lake District and we will definitely be back to see more.
