The Retreat is manufactured under its Trademark on the edge of the Lake District in Cumbria by Retreat Homes & Lodges Limited. The 50,000sqft manufacturing base is set within six acres of countryside, with fantastic views up to Scotland and the surrounding area. Managing Director Alan Rooke and Production Manager Trevor Lawson have been manufacturing bespoke lodges for many years and were chosen by the Architects for their traditional construction methods and extensive building knowledge. Their established approach to the build quality of hand crafted lodges, sits well with the architectural design of The Retreat lodge, which requires precise expertise of finish. Contemporary, intelligent and rigidly constructed, the Retreat is extensively built from timber, from sustainable forests, because it is the world’s most sustainable, and arguably most beautiful, building material. Where there is wood, it is solid timber, where there are windows; they are floor to ceiling glass.
