Weekend Trip to Rocombe Valley Retreat

We had a wonderful stay at Rocombe Retreat surrounded by a plethora of birds, sheep, cattle and the luling of running water into the lake. Eliott was very helpful,-not only with practical advice on site but was also able to sign post us to local attractions. The farmer (sorry we forgot his name).was very accommodating and gave us a snapshot of his daily life. We were very fortunate to see the weighing in from the fishing competition that took place on site. Truly amazing fishermen in the area! It really felt like home away from home. We will definetley recommend and will visit again.

Weekend Trip to Gilestone Glamping

We stayed for Easter weekend. The location was perfect for walking into the village, or the canal for paddleboarding and near some lovely walks. The tent itself felt cosy and the real beds were quite luxurious, as was the hot shower. Fabulous, friendly and helpful hosts! Thank you!
