  • "An excellent property in a great location."

    The house was clean and tidy. It was well appointed with everything you could need. It’s situated within the town but in a quiet space. Sedbergh is an ideal walking location with plenty to keep you occupied. The owner could examine their check in time- having to wait until 17:00 is unreasonable.

    Thank you for your positive feedback & we are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Corner Cottage. Your comments are very much appreciated . Regarding the check in time…. it is very much in the hands of our management team who organise the cleaning of Corner Cottage & other properties in the Sedbergh area. In order to maintain the high standard of cleaning & maintenance required on the change over day, enough time is required for them to attend more than one property & to undertake the work involved so that the property can be left in the state we know that guests expect & look forward to. I hope you understand. Property Owner

  • "Another lovely stay at Corner Cottage."

    Thanks to Ann and Philip for providing such a comfortable and cosy "home from home" with everything we needed for a relaxing stay! Would love to return yet again later in the year.

    We were delighted to have you back at Corner Cottage & very pleased to read you have again enjoyed your stay there. Thank you very much for your positive feedback & will be delighted to have you back later in the year. Property Owner

  • "Corner Cottage is a lovely cottage, centrally located for the high street and walks from the doorstep."

    The cottage is nicely decorated with a lovely bathroom and plenty of hot water. The setees' are very comfortable with lovely scatter cushions. The bed is in need of a new mattress as a large piece of foam has been placed over the mattress however, one still sinks in the main places. The cottage is in need of a deep clean. The toilet hadn't been cleaned thoroughly for some time and I, myself used half a bottle of bleach cleaning it. There was also a few cobwebs and the oven required a clean. The backs of the dining chairs also required cleaning. Feedback for Sykes: When customers are booking accommodation on your web-site is it possible to have a 'Special Requests' section like most other booking sites. I have a dust allergy and always prefer to inform the owners so that particular attention can be paid to the standard of cleanliness. Thank you.

    Thank you for your positive comments concerning Corner Cottage & we were pleased to hear that you thought the cottage was lovely, nicely decorated & comfortable, & in a very good location in Sedbergh. Regarding your negative coments, I am very sorry that you thought that certain things were not up to your standards. It is unfortunate that the mattress topper didn't suit you. Both the cottage & the oven have recently had a deep clean & the bathroom will have been cleaned prior to your arrival, after the previous guests had left on Sunday. If you arrived & found things were not right for you, the phone number for Winder Services is in the information book, & they would, I am sure, have immediately put right your concerns, without your having to seek out cleaning materials in the room we normally keep private. We have previousy had excellent reviews from our recent guests concerning cleanliness & suggest that, having a dust allergy, make sure that this information is communicated to the holiday company so that it can be passed on to the owner & the cleaning company, then your concerns can be acted upon so that your stay & comments, prove to be very satisfactory.

    Been to sedbergh cottages for many years and noticed the cottages we used before have prices that seem to keep them empty. Would love to return off peak. Thank you.

  • "The location is great, being so near the shops but very quiet."

    Parking a short walk away might not be ideal for some, but didn't bother us. The cottage is beautiful: tastefully decorated and very comfortable. Amazing bathroom! I agree with earlier comments about the outside space not being quite as expected, but we didn't need it in October so it wasn't a problem! The only very slight downsides for us were the TV being so hard to work and the volume far too low, and the carbon monoxide detector squeaking loudly each evening with no obvious way to replace the battery. If we owned it we might try to fit a downstairs loo in the understairs cupboard (we did this in our last house), with a replacement store cupboard next to the fridge. A blackout blind in the bedroom would really be great, as there are several very bright lights on all night close outside. All in all, a great place to stay.

    Thank you for your useful comments. The carbon monoxide detector issue has been rectified & shouldn’t now be a problem for future guests. We were delighted to hear that over all, your stay at Corner Cottage was great! Property Owner

  • "Very comfortable and well equipped cottage."

    Excellent location for easy access to town and eateries. Would like to give a shout out for excellent service from the property manager at Winder Services. Very helpful and prompt service from them. Water is extremely hot at the cottage so beware. It doesn't seem possible to turn it down at all. All in all a perfect base for exploring the Howgills and Yorkshire Dales area.

    Delighted to read your excellent comments, thank you very much. Also pleased to hear you received good & prompt treatment from Winder Services & your comment about the hot water, which is now being looked in to. Very pleased you had a good week at Corner Cottage, & enjoyed Sedbergh & the beautiful surrounding area. Property Owner

  • "We had a lovely time tme at Corner Cottage, situated just off the main high street it provides an oasis of peace in a busy village ."

    It is in a fantastic position to visit both the Dales and the Lakes and had all the facilities we needed for our two week stay. (We noted that prevoius comments had been taken onboard by the owners and rectified). We had lovely meals at the Red Lion and Dalesman pubs. A reasonable size Spar supermarket is found as you come into Sedbergh together with local shops and market days mean you have everything local. Having booked the holiday before we changed our car to an EV we were concerned about parking a short way from the property but discovered fast EV changing points within a six mile radius of the property (eg.M6 services, Dent Village, Kendal, Kirkby Lonsdale, Hawes). We had no problems charging whilst exploring the towns and countryside as several car parks had EV points. We would certainly recommend Corner Cottage and will return when we visit the area again.

    We are delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay at Corner Cottage & thank you for your positve comments regarding Sedbergh & surrounding area. Very pleased also to hear, that you will return for future visits. Property Owner

    Lots of walks to enjoy the local beauty areas. One minor adjustment however to locating Corner Cottage, the information advises turning into Davis Yard near 'The Three Hares' however, this business is no longer trading. TV remote was a little confusing too, but didn't spoil our restful week in the cottage. Will definitely be booking again!

    Thank you very much for your lovely comments about Corner Cottage and we were very pleased to hear how much you enjoyed your stay. I must aopolgise for the oversight regarding locating the cottage via the "The Three Hares" cafe which closed down a few months ago. I have spoken to Sykes & they have amended the location information for future reference. Your comments are very much appreciated & we look forward to welcoming you to Sedbergh again. Property Owner

    Found problems with TV Free Sat remote in living room. Would work intermittently leaving us unable to either turn it on or change channels. One item which we felt was missing in kitchen was a colander. Had a very good week there, loved the location.

Regarding the heating: the note in the Guest Information Guide explains how the timer in the airing cupboard can be advanced as required. The FreeStat / Internet arrangement. W are sorry that the service you received was intermittent. We have just checked the facility & the remote, which now has new batteries, and both now appear to be working satisfactorily.

  • "Cottage was very well equipped, cosy & warm in a brilliant location with facilities in near walking distance."

    As I have balance issues which vary day to day this was good for me so my husband could go off walking on his own. 2 minor points which would be ok for most people, no handrail on the stairs so it was hands & knees and the wet room shower was too powerful for it's own good and crept round the end of the screen soaking the room & heading for the carpet outside the door. Had to use towels to stop that happening but screen perhaps could do with an extra angled bit on it!

    Thank you very much for your feedback. We will certainly look into the handrail situation. We are new owners & are unaware that it has been a problem. As for the shower, we will follow that up, though to date, that problem hasn't been drawn to our attention by previous occupants. We appreciate your comments nevertheless & are very pleased to hear your lovely comments about Corner Cottage. Property Owner

About the location

SEDBERGH

Kendal 11.5 miles; Kirkby Lonsdale 11.8 miles, Hawes 15.8 miles.

The attractive old market town of Sedbergh (pronounced Sed-Ber), with its old-world atmosphere, is not only set in the magnificent western dales of the Yorkshire Dales National Park but is also close to the rugged eastern fells of the Lake District. The town, with its narrow streets, little shops, traditional pubs, famous school dating back to 1525 and its 12th century church, has been a thriving community for hundreds of years, with a market dating from the 13th Century. Leading from Sedbergh is Dentdale, the jewel of the Yorkshire Dales with its rolling hills and dry-stone walls, stretching 14 miles from the windswept moors below Whernside to the confluence of the Rivers Dee and Rawthey. At the centre of the dale is Dent, with its cobbled streets, which has existed since Norman times and nearby Dent railway station is on the renowned Settle-Carlisle railway line. There are three golf courses nearby, as well as tennis, riding, and fishing, and the area is a paradise for walkers, ramblers, runners, and cyclists. This, together with the tranquillity of the surrounding valleys, the two National Parks and it being England's book town, makes an ideal year-round holiday destination.
