Overview

Rowling End and the Mouse House are situated in one of the Lake District�s most beautiful and tranquil valleys.

Rowling End is a traditional Lakeland farmhouse which can accommodate up to eight people. It was fully restored in 2009 and has been awarded a Five Star Quality in Tourism rating and a Gold Award each year since then. The house is stylish and comfortable, with a large farmhouse kitchen and open fires.

The Mouse House is an idyllic retreat for two people. A detached stone barn dating from the days when Rowling End was a farm, it has been sympathetically developed as a one-bedroom cottage. It was awarded a Gold Star Tourism rating in 2009.

These two self-catering properties have stunning views across the valley to Catbells and Maiden Moor. Whether you are looking to explore the high fells, lakes and valleys or simply wish to enjoy the dramatic landscape, Rowling End and the Mouse House provide the perfect starting point for your visit.
