ROOKHOW 

LAKE DISTRICT group accommodation & woodland

COME STAY WITH US

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

Stay in our newly renovated and energy efficient cosy 16 bed self-catering Bunkbarn with its log fires and snug sitting room and make use of our campfire, outdoor seating area and newly renovated yurt with woodburner in the middle of the woods.

For active families and friends groups or extended family celebrations, Rookhow is the perfect destination for your 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. Space to camp too.

SUPPORTING  COMMUNITY GROUPS

Rookhow puts 5% of every booking fee into a fund to support groups, who may not be able to cover the cost themselves, to stay at Rookhow. So far we have helped over 500 individuals from 40 community groups, including refugees, women living with domestic abuse,  people dealing with trauma and addictions and LGBTQ+ youth groups. We have had a huge amount of feedback about the positive effect the time at Rookhow has had on people's mental health and wellbeing. 

“Staying at Rookhow is an experience I’ll never forget. It has given me so much joy and I simply loved every second there. I felt safe and calm.”

"The fire pit in the middle of the woods was exactly what we were looking for, staying late in front of the fire and enjoying the nature around us. The perfect way to really reconnect with nature."
