About this property
This superb, award winning property is a four bedroom conversion of a traditional stone built barn dating back to 1726. It has views up over the nearby hills and its secluded south facing sandstone terraces are a marvellous place to relax.
Cazenovia Hall is a Grade II listed holiday home within the secluded grounds of the family owned Grade I listed Blencowe Hall. Sensitively renovated to a high standard, Cazenovia Hall is a 5 Star Gold Award winning, light and airy four bedroom traditional stone built barn dating back to 1726. It has views up over the nearby hills and its secluded south facing sandstone terraces are a marvellous place to wind down after a day out exploring in the Lake District.
Blencowe is situated on the edge of the Lake District, about four miles from the Lake District National Park. Close at hand is the Air Force National Trust waterfall offering a great combination of a boulder strewn stream for the young at heart to paddle in, a tea shop and a scenic walk up to the peak of Gowbarrow Fell. The property is just over a mile from Greystoke Village which has a lovely village shop, a traditional Lakeland pub, the Boot and Shoe, a heated swimming pool and Greystoke castle with its 3,000 acres of woodland grounds, with the deer park now open for country walks.
Rural Retreats offer two other properties within the grounds of Blencowe Hall, Riverain and Wythburn Cottage, both sleeping six guests.

Good to very good in parts, not excellent. Beautiful setting with an amazing view from the terrace. Excellent welcome pack. Great open kitchen / dining / living space for larger groups. Summer duvet too small for zip and link main bed, bathroom in this room also pokey with cramped over bath shower. Linens not as “crisp and white” as described, and some furnishings now starting to be a little faded. Appreciate it is hard to keep these properties maintained, but Cazenovia needs a few upgrades to bring it back to it’s 5 star potential.

What a stunning property. Furnished and equipped to the highest standard and a beautifully renovated building all set in idyllic location. It was a pleasure just being in the property, so cosy and warm with the log burning stove which we made full use of. Meals around the huge table (that converted to a billiard table) were a joy, followed by a good night's sleep in comfortable beds. The weather was not wonderful - what you would expect at this time of year, but nevertheless we had some enjoyable trips to Windermere, Bowness and generally exploring. The time of year meant that everywhere was much quieter and so our excursion over Hardknot and Wrynose Pass was far more pleasurable than it would be during the height of the summer - no having to stop on hairpin bends to let other vehicles pass! Cazenovia Hall is easily one of the best Rural Retreats properties we have stayed in and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
