There’s something special about getting everyone together under one roof. Not spread across hotel rooms. Not meeting in corridors. But sharing kitchen and living space to properly relax together.
Whether you are planning a milestone birthday, a family reunion, an anniversary celebration, or a corporate retreat, having a single property to share allows your group to spend meaningful time together without the separation of hotel rooms or shared public spaces! And there’s nowhere quite like the Lake District for it. Big views, endless walks, and plenty of properties ready for a big get-together.

Celebrations That Don’t Fit in a Hotel
Birthdays. Anniversaries. Reunions. Special occasions.
For birthdays, anniversaries, reunions, and special occasions, a large private property offers far more than multiple hotel rooms ever could. Your group can gather in one kitchen, dine around one table, and relax in shared living spaces designed for socialising.
Property: Broad How
These stays also work exceptionally well for multi-generational groups. Grandparents can enjoy the views and quiet corners, children have space to play safely, parents can properly switch off, and even the dogs can roam freely around the garden! Features such as large gardens, open-plan kitchens, comfortable lounges, hot tubs, and scenic terraces ensure the property feels designed for everyone, not just adapted for a group.
With the option to add extras such as private chefs or private water activities at our lakefront properties, you can tailor your stay to suit your group and create an experience that feels truly personal. Get in touch with us, and we would be more than happy to pass over a list of contacts for you!
Corporate Retreats & Team Experiences
Large group properties are also great for corporate retreats. The privacy and space allow for productive working sessions, while the setting encourages creativity and clear thinking away from the usual workplace environment. Spacious dining areas can double as meeting spaces, while outdoor areas and nearby walking routes offer opportunities for informal discussions and team activities.
Lakefield Boathouse is particularly well-suited to this style of retreat, combining practicality with a high level of comfort and offering a dedicated office space alongside a large dining table that can accommodate meetings and group sessions.
