No it’s not a mirage. There is blue sky in the Lake District! Although this wasn’t taken today, but in June.

Anyone else feel like we’ve been cheated?

Surely we must get some Summer sun soon. People keep telling me the jet stream just needs to move. What is it waiting for?

This is the gazebo at the Gardener’s Retreat and dad’s roses.

🍂 How soon is too soon to start thinking about autumn escapes? Well, it's never too early if you ask us 🥰️

Think long evenings under the stars, fluffy robes to cosy up in and warming underfloor heating after a long day of adventures. Wake up to stunning scenes of woodland and fells, while enjoying your morning coffee from the comfort of your cloud-like bed. Bliss...

Our diary is now open for autumn bookings, so why not make a break for the lakes this golden season. 🧡

Today is World Environment Day, and if you're new to the Hutton John Estate family, we thought we'd share just a few of the wonderful ways we're prioritising sustainability in our cabins and cottages, including...

🌱 We ensure all of the lights we use are LED in order to operate as efficiently as possible
🌱 We always support local businesses where possible, from the cladding in our cabins to the goodies in our welcome hampers, significantly reducing our carbon footprint
🌱 All of the electricity in our cabins besides running the hot water is run on solar panels
🌱 Our hot tubs are wood-fired and we supply enough locally sourced, sustainable wood for your first soak
🌱 The heritage wood surrounding our cabins, Brow Wood, has been carefully rewilded to create a nature-rich habitat for local wildlife

Our hard work was proudly recognised earlier this year when we were awarded the bronze Green Tourism accreditation, and we'll keep reviewing and refining the way we do things until we hit gold! 🏆

If you'd like to read more about the many ways we have incorporated our green ethos into other elements of our cabins and cottages, please head over to our sustainability page: https://huttonjohnestate.co.uk/sustainability/

Obviously you should never let your dog near sheep, unless they are properly trained. Very proud of my Shadow. I was trying to take a picture of the sheep and she just meandered in to view.😂 The sheep did a much better job of posing for the camera, but 👀 she’s just not bothered by them and more importantly they’re not bothered by her. Fell sheep can be very skittish because they aren’t used to dogs, but they know her.

Can you spot the sweet ❤️️ hidden away on the Gardeners Bothy?

This romantic sacre-coeur (known as a sacred heart) window matches those added to the main house by Laura Henrietta in 1867, a member of the Hudleston family who resided at Hutton John Estate during the mid 1800s.

All of our Lakeland cottages are steeped in a rich history with charming tidbits just like this one, waiting to be discovered. Each property is tucked away within its own corner of the estate, where total peace and quiet await.

With so many brilliant small businesses on our doorstep, we aim to support as many as we can within our home from homes.

That's why all of our welcome hampers contain lovely, handpicked goodies from the likes of Cumbria-based The Toffee shop, Wild & Fruitful and .

We also work closely with the wonderful A Days Walk team, Cumbria's only 100% local produce retailer, with whom you can enjoy a delicious selection of dairy, meat, bakery, drinks and everything else in between delivered straight to your cottage or cabin door.

Being situated in the heart of the Lake District, we're too often spoilt for choice when it comes to deciding where to explore, where to eat and what to do, and it's no wonder our guests are, too!

More and more, we've received requests for recommendations for vegan and vegetarian eateries in the Lakes, and we're always more than happy to share our favourites. In fact, we've just posted a new blog on our website journal featuring just a few of the many amazing places to dine. If you're planning on visiting the area and are looking to try out more plant-based restaurants and cafes, then be sure to give it a read.

For those visiting our luxurious cabins, take a wander around to Brow Wood and you'll find this secret viewpoint tucked away overlooking rolling fields and breathtaking fells 🌱

It's the perfect spot to relax and unwind after a day of exploring, and an ideal base to watch the abundant wildlife that surrounds us. On a good day, there are tons of birds and animals to be seen, including hares, badgers, deer and of course lots of sheep – this is the Lake District after all!

Hit the ❤️️ if you wish you were here!

A cold glass of something fizzy, a good book and an even better view... This could possibly be *the* dreamiest setup for a long weekend 🥰️

All guests staying in one of our four luxury cabins can expect these same beautiful views of the carefully rewilded woodland and beyond. It's the perfect tonic after a hectic week, and just one of the many reasons out guests love returning.

Welcome to Brow Wood 💙

Brow Wood was actually the first of our five Highgate Cabins to open, and it remains a firm favourite with many of our guests. With a bright, plush interior, tons of natural light, a wood-fired hot tub and exceptional views of its namesake, Brow Wood, it's the ultimate retreat for those seeking a luxurious escape.

Like all of our other properties, Brow Wood Cabin remains proudly dog friendly, too, so your four-legged friend can join in on the adventures, too!

We have just a handful of dates remaining for stays at Brow Wood from June onwards, so be sure to get planning your lovely Lakes escape this May 🌸

Happy Earth Day 🌿🌱🌳

Here at Hutton John Estate, we are responsible for 550 acres of rolling fields and wonderful woodland in the beautiful Lake District. It's only right, therefore, that we should keep this lush landscape looking as green as it can possibly be, while playing our part with greener business practices, too.

In our cabins and cottages, we have meticulously reviewed how we do things over the years, upgrading and updating where possible, in order to be a more environmentally friendly business. In fact, as you will see from the post pinned on our profile, we have proudly been awarded a Green Tourism award this year in recognition of our efforts, but we know the hard work doesn't stop there.

Our wonderful owner Kate has also been invited to partake in a new podcast at the Cumbria Chamber of Commerce, sharing our sustainability story in the hopes that we can inspire others to do the same. We'll be sure to share more details on this soon!

Rain or shine, we'll be spending the day celebrating the nature that surrounds us, and we hope you will too.

Nothing makes us happier than receiving lovely feedback from our even lovelier guests, so much so that we just had to share a few of our recent favourites 🤗

We have some exciting news... 🏡🥂✨

We have officially added a fourth property to our Lakeland Cottages collection... Introducing, the Gardeners Bothy!

The Gardeners Bothy is a one-of-a-kind retreat designed just for two, situated on the outskirts of the Estate's walled garden. The bothy was originally built back in 1870 by Laura Henrietta Hudleston, and, with its handy location beside the Estate’s walled garden, it was commonly used as living quarters for the gardening team.

It's a structure steeped in history, and one we cannot wait for you to enjoy for yourself. Our diary is now open for bookings in the Gardeners Bothy, and we hope to welcome you very soon 🌿

We have received a Green Tourism Award! 🌱🏆

As many of you may know already, since starting our journey as a luxury accommodation provider, we have been doing our very best to ensure our cottages and cabins run as sustainably and environmentally friendly as possible. From the way we source our water to finding more efficient ways to power our properties, we are extremely passionate about keeping our National Park green.

That's why we are oh so excited to share that we have been awarded a bronze Green Tourism Award as a testament to our efforts. We, like most, have a long way to go, but we are so very proud to have received this recognition.

If you'd like to know more about our sustainability efforts, take a look at our page on our green ethos at Hutton John Estate, listing just some of the ways we aim to make a difference: https://huttonjohnestate.co.uk/sustainability/

To see one of the best views around, all you have to do is look up! 💫

The lighter nights may be fast approaching, but we adore seeing the stars come out as the sun goes down.

As we are situated in the heart of Cumbria and in the Lake District National Park, all of our properties at Hutton John Estate benefit from vast clear skies that boast views of some of the most spectacular and precious skyscapes in the UK and beyond. Relax under the starry sky from the comfort of your wood-fired hot tub, as you soak up the atmosphere surrounded by nothing but nature.
