My background is as a yoga teacher and aromatherapist with over 20 years’ experience with a style heavily influenced by India and the Buddhist and Hindu cultures. I like a space to feel light, zen, and uncluttered so that it invites a feeling of deep calm and relaxation, whilst also being a home away from home.  I teach retreats all over the world and this is my own little retreat in the Lake District.

​

Being close to water is very calming and serene and within minutes of being at Abbott Moss, you forget all the stresses of everyday life. I hope that you will love my home as much as I do.

"Come to be inspired by the landscape and the serene hills, the rushing river Eden (much bigger than you might expect) and dramatic cloud formations. On warm days you'll be outdoors by the water, perhaps with a barbecue, on colder ones you can make yourself comfortable inside by the Aga or the fire in the sitting room with a book. This is a lovely, light, warm house." Nicola - Sawdays

"This was our second stay at Abbott Moss and it already feels like the home-from-home to which we hope to return each year. Last time it was summer and we enjoyed eating outside, and looking at the lake. This time in the rainy and cold weather, we were able to enjoy the log stove and the warming living room - playing board games with the kids and watching movies. It was such a happy ane peaceful time. The beds were as clean and inviting as always, and the CAKE which welcomed us was sublime. A huge THANK YOU to Julia, the lovely housekeeper, for this treat. We will definitely be back! xxx Sawdays January 2023

"We had a gorgeous stay at Abbot Moss. The photos don't do justice to the location and beauty of the house - both inside and out. Driving down the private lane, our first glimpse of the house at the side of the lake was magical. It is remote and peaceful and yet no distance to the Northern Lakes. We enjoyed the wood burning stove and the addition of free logs was a bonus. Julia's lemon drizzle cake was a wonderful surprise. Everything has been thought out and we felt incredibly lucky to have stayed there. Book it - you won't regret it". - Kate - Sawdays February 2022.

"We loved Abbott Moss - opening the curtains each morning to the views across the lake, walks from the doorstep, glorious seclusion, watching the wildlife - the house was simply exceptional. It has been restored beautifully with a kitchen that was a joy to cook in - with a lovely Aga for cooking and warmth, spacious sitting room with huge comfy sofas, bedrooms with the comfiest beds we have ever slept in and great views from every angle. I can't recommend this house highly enough. We rarely go to the same property twice but we have already booked another stay".
