Excellent Communication by the hosts lovely accommodation and beautiful location

This was an excellent cottage; warm; comfortable and convenient for the North Lakes. Good cycling from the front gate, an excellent welcome hamper with electric charging on site.

Riverain offered us all that we required for a perfect holiday in a part of England that we love. We have had several holidays at Blencow and we are always impressed by the contents of the food hamper and the treats provided for our dog. Our family will certainly return and the younger ones hope to try out a Shepherds Hut next time.

A perfect place to stay, clean, comfortable, and in an ideal location. The food hamper provided us with all we needed to start our holiday.

We had a wonderful week, the garden was not secure and so we struggled when sitting out the back constantly making sure the dogs were safe. Couldn't fault the house and the provisions, very well equiped.

A really lovely, warm, well equipped house near beautiful countryside. Dog friendly.

On this occasion we did not get a visit from the owner to check we were settled in. Disappointing as I have always enjoyed the welcome and the opportunity to ask questions about the property and location.

POOR LIGHTING IN A NUMBER OF ROOMS DURING THE DAY WHEN WEATHER OUTSIDE WAS DARK AND RAINING. ESPECIALLY IN BEDROOMS WERE THERE WERE 'SLIT' TYPE WINDOWS

Superb well appointed cottage. Only minor problem is some noise in the downstairs bedroom from room above. Housekeeper we met was absolutely charming.

We have stayed in at least 7 rural retreats properties and this one exceeded all standards of comfort cleanlinesse and location.

This was excellent. Property was lovely and very well maintained. Housekeeper sorted out somebody to alter the heating very quickly after we arrived. Warm and friendly response when we we were trying to find way to property without adequate directions from Rural Retreats.

perfect setting. Everything was up to what we have come to know as Rural Retreats very high standards. Love the welcome hamper ... a really nice touch!

Excellent accommodation & after service at property

The property met all our expectations. The response from Rowley Estates prior to and during the holiday was timely and informative. The website was excellent. Definitely a place we would return too.
