Find tranquility in nature at The Hawthorn Retreat set on a bluff above the Petteril valley.
This riverside retreat at Blencowe Hall within The Rowley Estates is idyllic. Bluebells, red squirrels, songbirds. The turning of the seasons as colours shift in dappled light. At night the moon rises through laced branches of blackthorn and oak and the owls hoot. It’s so magical we want to offer you a way to linger here. Our shepherds’ huts give you a simple break in the heart of the wilderness with a flourish of The Rowley Estates luxury.
Your hut is architect-designed to enhance space and comfort. Inside, reconnect with a simpler life.
Throw open the french doors onto the sunny deck overlooking the River Petteril for leisurely alfresco breakfasts. Spark the coals for a barbeque on the Weber or light up the fire pit for an evening outdoors. Relax on the balcony overlooking the river in the Adirondack chairs.
After long full days, the Hawthorn Retreat is a sanctuary. Sweet dreams in the five foot king size luxury bed provided with crisp white Egyptian cotton linen.
The Hawthorn Retreat shepherds hut sits at the edge of the River Petteril valley overlooking this quiet woodland valley. Exclusive and secluded glamping at The Rowley Estates.

The shepherds hut was cosy and warm which was well equipped and a comfy bed. A lovely hamper greeted us when we arrived with quality products. The bathroom had lovely smelling toiletries. Highly recommend.
We stayed at Hawthorn Retreat for 4 nights and we really enjoyed our stay. Christine is a great host, always responsive, provided clear instructions about check in and about things to do around the property. Place itself is a catch. Surrounded in the woods, at the bank of the river...
This place was absolutely perfect! Such beautiful surroundings, even better than the pictures show. There’s a lovely little river just at the bottom of the bank where the hut is, so nice to wake up to the sounds of running water. It’s super cosy and warm, great shower, comfortable bed...
Beautiful location, fantastic hut! Christine was also extremely helpful and efficient. She was always there to answer any questions. We had a lovely time and will definitely be telling all our friends!
We had an lovely weekend stay at Hawthorn Retreat recently for our friends’ wedding. The hamper in the hut when we arrived was incredible, especially the Rowley jam (that and the loaf of bread barely lasted two days)! We had plenty of charcoal and wood for the barbecue and fire...
What a beautiful stay at Hawthorn Retreat on Rowley Estates! Firstly, Christine was so accommodating and patient throughout the process of booking, particularly with all my questions. We arrived when it was dark and got a little confused about where to go but after a quick call with Christine, we...
