Escape to the heart of the Lake District, but leave the crowds behind. Rookhow is a secluded haven of tranquility, with 12 acres of private ancient woodland nestled between Coniston and Lake Windermere. 

Stay in our cosy self-catering barn with its log fires and snug sitting room and make use of our campfire, outdoor seating area and yurt in the woods. 

With accommodation for active families and groups, Rookhow is the perfect destination for your short adventure break or relaxing holiday in the Lake District.  

Our unique and historic site also includes a 300 year old historic Quaker Meeting House for extra group & workshop space.
