Accommodation at Rookin House

We have a number of accommodation barns on site but set apart from each other. All barns have been tastefully converted from 16th century stone barns retaining lots of character with exposed beams and a rustic finish.

Blencathra View (sleeps 17/18) which has been designed for comfort using quality furnishings, has a traditional fire place whilst enjoying underfloor heating with a large modern kitchen with a range cooker.

Camping Barn and pods (sleeps up to 20) is ideal if you are on a budget or would like a camping experience without worrying about what the weather is going to do. It is centrally heated, so warm and has a fully equipped kitchen, there are also inside toilets and showers.

The Cosy Cottage (sleeps 2 to 4) is ideal for couples or small families. A quaint little Cottage nestled in the center of Rookin House. Warm & cosy, it is the perfect place for a little break away.

Fell View (sleeps up to 8) is perfect for a couples get together or a family get away. A fully equipped and self contained cottage with beautiful views of Blencathra and the surrounding fells.

Rookin House self catering accommodation is ideal for groups who want an activity break.

Set in the heart of the Lake District, midway between Keswick and Penrith, 9 miles from the M6 J40 and 4 miles from Lake Ullswater makes a perfect location.​

We are close to some of the greatest walks in the country from the strenuous hikes of Blencathra and Helvelyn to the gentle meanders of Aira Force. Ullswater is 4 miles away. There is an excellent choice of local pubs and the market towns of Penrith and Keswick are a 10-15 minute drive if you want a night out.
