"What a gem of a property!"
We gasped as we saw the stunning view as we drove down the lane for the first time and the property continued to delight us. Wonderful views from the outdoor decking, ample parking, lovely bedrooms and decor and fantastic facilities. The welcome book really really helpful and we enjoyed the local pub, the Farmers Arms for a Sunday roast, that the owner had recommended. We loved it and would 100% come back.

"Superb property, in a peaceful and serene location."
Our intention was to relax and get away from the daily hustle and bustle and Driftwood certainly made this come true.
Well appointed, with good quality furnishings made the stay more enjoyable.
Will be certainly recommending to friends, especially those with dogs, as the beach walks are literally on the doorstep.

"We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend Driftwood Cottage, the location is ideal if you want some peace and quiet."
Few small points to note, the local pub that was recommended is actually permanently closed, there were only small drinking glasses so we had to go out and buy pint glasses, also salt was required for the dishwasher.
Thank you so much for your feedback Alyson. I am so sorry that the guest book had not been updated, I’ll make sure that is done at the next opportunity.
For future guests, there is another lovely pub in the village (Farmer’s Arms) a 10 minute walk from the property.
Apologies that the glasses were not sufficient, and although I do ask the cleaners to check the salt in the dishwasher, this is not always checked on every clean. I will make sure some is put under the sink for the future.
All the best,
Amy

"This cottage is beautiful: well designed and equipped."
The beds, showers and kitchen facility were all excellent and we loved staying here.
The location is exceptional- beautiful sunrises and it was so great to be next to the sea. So close we could hear the waves and the birds.
We also loved the area and had wonderful meals in pubs in the area. Most places are so dog friendly too.

"Always wanted a holiday with a sea view."
Driftwood Cottage exceeded all our expectations, the Cottage is stunning through and through and the views are amazing all day long. Situated close to lots of fabulous places to visit. We feel privileged to have had the opportunity to stay here. Amy is brilliant, her attention to detail is second to none. We highly recommend this cottage, we don’t believe we could get the same wow factor for a very long time, if at all.

"This is a stunning cottage located on the Cumbrian coast line."
Magnificent views dominate the outlook from the main area. This panorama is constantly changing with the weather and tide, making every time of the day a different experience. Modern and contemporary furnishings also create a very pleasant environment. The interior is extremely comfortable and there is plenty of seating areas to unwind and relax. We would have no hesitation in staying here again! It is perfection.

"Perfect! We loved our stay at Driftwood."
The property is in a fabulous location. Very relaxing to watch the tide coming in and going out - so much so, that we were so content and comfortable to stay in and relax. Great access to the Lakes.
Great access to the beach to let the dogs out for a run.
Owner lovely to talk to, and felt that we could have contacted her, had we needed to. That said, we were short of nothing!

"Driftwood Cottage is a joy to visit."
The location is beautiful and the cottage is perfect. We were warm and comfortable throughout our stay. The ev charging was very useful for us. Our dogs enjoyed the beach, less so the hosing down afterwards but the hose was perfect for the task.
We have visited before but the new Driftwood is an outstanding place to stay for a holiday

"The cottage is in a superb setting, right on the beach and with beautiful views over Morecombe Bay."
I was on holiday with my daughter and our 3 dogs and it was just relaxing sitting watching the changing tides, sunrises and sunsets. The dogs had a whale of a time on the beach which helped tire them out. Driftwood is extremely dog friendly and easy to keep clean and there's even a hosepipe outside to wash them if necessary.
An important point for me is that the beds were very comfortable and ensured a restful stay. We didn't venture far but it is only about 30 mins to many places in the Lake District.

"Had an amazing time Driftwood Cottage was stunning and location was fantastic."
Certainly lived up to the description. Had everything we needed the only downside was the flies every time we opened the sliding doors we couldn’t get rid of them despite leaving no food out. At one point I counted 15 so I think the sliding doors would benefit from some kind of fly screen. We will be back.

"The cottage has been totally renewed since our last stay."
It no longer has a rustic beach hut feel. It now is a more sophisticated modern feel. More space and more comfortable in terms of en-suite etc.
The owners have done a lovely job and it was a very comfortable stay.
The beds are very comfy. The kitchen is well equipped. We watched to only one evening and it was comfy. We put the wood burner on too and it felt cosy.
The main attraction for me is the location and the isolation. It felt less isolated as there were caravans in the field that used to have lambs. Not sure if that’s permanent, but there were more people trucking past the cottage than there were previously.
However it’s still not a beach that ever gets heaving with visitors.
It’s lovely watching the tide come in and enjoying a glass of wine or a coffee from the cottage. We have already booked again. I just hope it’s still isolated when we return as there is evidence of other development - inevitable I suppose, but I hope it remains unspoilt and still quiet. If it does I’d love to keep returning.
Owners are very friendly too and left a lovely welcome pack for us and the dogs - thank you Amy!
Hi Angela, Thanks for your lovely feedback.
Re the field, the farmer rents it out for only a couple of weeks of the year to the Camping and Caravaning Club, so you were just unlucky I think.
They are restricted to the top part of the field, so the cottage is not directly overlooked. You could always check their website to see future dates if you prefer.
We look forward to seeing you again at the beach xx
