Nestled just one mile from Sedbergh, Howgills House provides the ideal country retreat. Set along the stunning landscape between the Lakes and the Yorkshire Dales, it's the perfect gateway to the great outdoors. Unwind and indulge in the pleasures of two hot tubs, high-speed 'B4RN' Wi-Fi, a smart TV, a play den, a pizza oven, and awe-inspiring views. Your escape to tranquillity awaits!

Howgills House was perfect for my retreat. All the guests were blown away by the stunning setting and the comfort, and we had everything we needed and more. The customer service support was second-to-none. I wouldn't hesitate to book another retreat here. Thank you.

We had a fantastic stay at Howgills house for my friends hen do. The place was absolutely perfect, it had everything we could have needed and more and was immaculate! Communication with the team was brilliant throughout, from booking to arrival. The owner popped over a couple of times during our stay to make sure everything was okay which was much appreciated. Would 100% stay here again and would recommend it to all friends and family.

Thank you Howgills for the best weekend for our friends hen do, all of the hens had an amazing stay :D

Nigel Close (Owner) replied 167 days ago
Hi Good Morning April. I just want to thank you for your fantastic review that we have just received back from you after your stay last weekend with us at Howgills House. We love to get the 5 scores of course to confirm our striving for a perfect stay for our guests and we can see your appreciation in words reflected in the scores across the board but I wonder where and what fell short of your expectations in the Value for money question. That 4 knocked our overall figure down to a 4.8. As the whole point of these feedbacks is to understand and for us to learn, please can you let us know if it was an overall feeling from the group or just an odd one or two guests who felt we were not giving good value for the price paid? We understand that in such broad groups gathered, there are potentially huge differences in what offers value for money but we do appreciate the feedback. With best wishes Nigel april johnson 10:29 (3 hours ago) to me Hi Nigel, So sorry for this I thought I had put a 5 for everything. The 4 for value for money must have been accidental! Is there a way for me to go on and change this? Kind regards, April april johnson 11 Nov 2023, 18:11 (22 hours ago) to me Hi, No problem at all. So sorry again for that error. The place really was perfect!! Kind regards, April

Excellent!!!

Accommodation exceeded expectations. Everything was clean and comfortable and plenty of space for the whole family so we didn't feel we were on top of each other the whole weekend. Hot tubs were the cherry on top of a fantastic property.
The only negatives are the size of the bunks, the lower bunks are very low with not a lot of head room and as we are quite a tall family it proved a challenge getting in and out of them. The other was the small kettle, a water boiler or more than one kettle wouldve been more appropriate. But honestly that's just us nit picking what is otherwise a perfect property- already planning our next trip back to Howgills!

A touch of luxury, everything perfect and lots of clever touches. The kitchen is professional standard and has plenty of fridge space. There is a very large common room area with lots of comfortable seating. Bedrooms have high quality bedding and comfy towels, and everyone is also provided with a separate towel for the hot tubs. Outdoors there's lots more weather proof comfortable seating which is where we ate each day - if you fill every bed, the dining room is slightly small. There is a small astro area where children might like to play with a beach ball (bring one rather than a football, since it won't damage the building). There is space for several cars but if you are bringing lots of people you may need to plan where to park - we had two minibuses and a trailer which fitted easily onto the parking space. The house is in the countryside so there it is very quiet - the main thing you can hear is sheep! The owners are very responsive if you have any questions. Wifi works well. All bedrooms are ensuite which is fantastic. No TV in the bedrooms but there is a large TV in the common room. Sedbergh is nearby for shops, and supermarkets are happy to deliver to the property. Be aware of rubbish collection which is Thursday - you need to bring the bins out.

We stayed at this holiday accommodation in the Yorkshire dales in August 2020 . We appear to have been exceptionally fortune in being the first guest since the lockdown, during which time there had been renovations. The entire place had a new and fresh feel to it.

The photos on the website did not do the property justice, it was much larger in reality than the photos had given us the impression of. The kitchen facilities were all well apportioned and the drinks cooler was a welcome bonus, especially as the week we were there was very hot.

The 2 hot tubs were a big hit and the owner kindly arranged for one to be converted to a 'cold tub' at our request, again, very welcome in the hot weather we had. The scenic and calming views whilst sitting in the hot tub were a wonderfully relaxing experience.

From all ages, we had a great time here and felt quite sad when we had to leave! This was our first time holidaying up north and we are left with lovely memories of the beautiful scenery, lovely locals and friendly helpful owner. We very much hope to have the chance to visit again.

We had a great weekend staying at Howgills house! The house was spotlessly clean, spacious and very well equipped!
The bedrooms were clean, comfy and each room was like its own little world away from the rest of the house, when you were in your own room you couldn't hear a thing from outside, perfect when staying with others! The beds and sheets were very comfy! We had plenty of towels, bath mats and toilet rolls supplied!
The kitchen was very well equipped we didn't miss anything during our stay, everything we needed was provided!
The pool table was a huge hit! We had great fun playing pool and listening to music on the speakers.
The items provided for breakfast were a lovely surprise and we enjoyed eating together in the big dining room.
So much to say about the house I'm trying to remember it all! The lawn was great fun to play on and ideal being astro as we had had weather during our stay but this meant that everytime we had 5 minutes of sun we could play out without getting muddy!
We would certainly love to return in the future, Dawn and Nigel were very helpful and accommodating and kept in good contact right up to and during our stay.
Thank you for a great weekend!

We recently stayed at howgills House to celebrate my partners 30th birthday with family and friends. There was 19 adults and 2 children and It catered for all our needs and more. Everybody loved there stay and the house is very spacious and stunning! All the bedrooms are lovely and come with a beautiful en suite finished to a very high standered. The hot tubs are an added bonus which over look nice countryside. Nigel and liz are lovely and very helpful.
Our stay at howgills House was a fantastic 5 stars from all of us and we will definitely be returning again and would highly recommend it to anyone.
