"It was a lovely cottage, had everything we needed for a home away from home, beautiful location too, owners were friendly and helpful, would definitely go there again."
-
"Lovely cottage that met all of our needs."
We just found the sofa a bit lumpy!
-
"This is basic accommodation at a good value price."
You get what you pay for and on this basis we are happy.

"Home from home, private and lovely area"
-
"The property is very clean and spacious, and provided everything we needed."
There are plenty of footpaths virtually on the doorstep. But it is not far from the main road, so easy to get around. We really enjoyed our short break in the area.

"A comfortable well equipped cottage in a beautiful area close to the Howgill Fells."
Although on a working farm this has a peaceful vibe which is just what you need to relax. Plenty of easily accessible walks from the doorstep and the whole area is not over busy with visitors. Cottage itself is very dog friendly, even includes windows at dog height for hours of fascination watching sheep! Bed and sofas are very comfortable and cottage is warm. Enough pots and utensils are provided. All in all excellent cottage.
Thankyou for your lovely feedback Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay at stable cottage, it was the perfect location to explore the local area and the lakes."
-
"Spacious comfortable clean cottage in a lovely location."
Lots of local walks, and a short distance to key lakes areas and the Yorkshire dales. Ideal if you have a dog. We are planning to return next year

"Very peaceful location with beautiful views of the countryside."
Excellent base to explore the wider surrounding areas. Friendly and helpful owners who made this a great stay.

"Very enjoyable stay with our border collie."
Extremely easy to find with the provided directions. Plenty of parking available. Amazing setting alongside the farm, with plenty of nice walks available straight out of the door. Perfect for us with our dog. Well situated for the Yorkshire dales and the Lakes. The house was extremely well equipped, had everything we could have needed. Not sure how a previous reviewer had complained about the kitchen facilities. Had everything from a pizza cutter to pans and chopping boards. Nothing wrong with the kettle and microwave. DVDs provided which we watched all of during our stay, a great selection of films for the evenings. My partner didn't find the bed particularly comfortable, however I didn't have any issue at all. WiFi was unexpectedly good! We only briefly met the owners, but they were very welcoming. Couldn't have wished for a more peaceful stay for a nice chilled bank holiday week. Willow (the dog) was in his element watching the farmer and his dogs through the window. Would definitely return!

"We liked the cottage."
It was warm , a good size , the wifi was efficient, the shower was good. It is in a good location and we liked the walks from the door. It is basic , the parking and access are not great. It gives the impression in the ad that there is parking for three cars this needs to be clarified. The kitchen could be better equipped. It needs a new kettle and microwave. However the cottage is good value for money. As long as the costs remain the same we would use it again and recommend it.
Thankyou for your feedback, I will look into your issues , The parking outside the cottage has room for 1 car if more spaces are needed there is parking around the back of the house for upto 5 cars if needed not sure about the access we have people arriving in 4x4s and larger vehicles !!

"Loved the cottage, even better than expected Knew where the owners were if we needed them - but the stay was very peaceful and quiet, cold and stormy outside which made the cottage even nicer inside."
There was a leak upstairs, hopefully you saw our note in the book - caused us no problems, just wanted you to be aware. Ours was a relaxing weekend before Christmas and arrival of our baby which is due in a few weeks, perfectly did the job Thank you v much, maybe see you again

"Fantastic cottage with everything you’ll need."
Great walks on the door step for our two dogs. Lovely pubs short drive away Perfect little getaway
-
"A wonderful cottage, perfectly located to explore Cumbria, The Lakes & The Dales."
The cottage was perfect for dogs. Both owners are very friendly and welcoming when encountered on the farm. Neighbouring farmers friendly too. I’ll be back for another stay with my dogs soon.

Only issue was signage finding the farm could of been more obvious as it is a little weathered but it was a lovely weekend ideal for the lakes, everything needed was in the cottage, hope to return soon

"Nice cottage in a very quiet area, it took a bit of getting used to living upstairs and sleeping downstairs."
Marion has a bad back and found it awkward to get down and see out the low windows. We did find the bedroom curtains very thin and were waking up with the light showing through. But all in all if we are coming up to the area again we would look at staying with you again.
-
"Really lovely property really enjoyed our stay."
Everyone was very friendly. Cottage had everything we needed and great to find somewhere to accommodate our 3 children. One small bit of feed back is maybe just to provide a stair gate for the living area just to help keep little ones off the stairs. Overall a lovely stay will definitely look to book again.
Thankyou for your lovely feedback , pleased you had a lovely stay with us , so sorry about the stairs issue we have a stair gate that people use when requested Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay at Stable Cottage."
It's very spacious and warm, the bedrooms are comfy, it was perfect for our family of 5 (and the dog). Views from the cottage are beautiful and the kids enjoyed the upside down layout. There are fantastic walks from the doorstep, and nearby Kirkby Stephen (10 min drive) has nice cafes, shops and walks.
-
"Stayed here for 7 nights and I can honestly say it was a fantastic break."
The cottage was perfect for our family unit and the owners are lovely. They couldn’t do enough for us. The views are beautiful and there are great walks you can do. We would highly recommend this cottage. The price was a lot cheaper than other cottages, so we were sceptical of whether it was going to be alright but we were pleasantly surprised.
-
"Absolutely fantastic cottage with everything needed included."
Spotless throughout. Surrounded by stunning scenery. Will certainly be looking to book again. Thankyou

"We have just had a wonderful stay in Stable Cottage."
For a holiday rental it was very well equipped. The owners were very welcoming, friendly and helpful and the location was lovely and peaceful. We rented it as a base to explore the area and further afield to some of the Lakes and it suited us perfectly.

"Silent Day, Silent Night, All is wonder, All is bright."
...... The perfect authentic farm cottage, nicely placed astride the Lakes and Dales, for exploring both. World famous moorlands and dry stone stone walls, glorious bird sound, little lambs leaping and fluorescent green fields. Genuine and friendly pubs in the village. Walking the nearby old railway footpath to spectacular viaduct recommended. Warm and friendly hosts Mike and Diane, with welcoming collie sheep dog. Helped by perfect spring weather, wall to wall sunshine, crystal clear sky for star gazing, and perfect silence .... aah.

"We planned our holiday around doing the 3 peaks."
We managed to complete 2 of the 3 mountains. This cottage was an hour drive away from the peaks but it was a lovely drive to them. It was nice to come back to a lovely spacious cottage after such a challenge, only thing missing for me was an hot tub. We will definately be back to complete the 3rd mountain and we would consider returning to this cottage. The owners were very friendly and it was nice and quiet and the scenery aroung the place was stunning. When we book again it will be for a longer period of time. 3 nights was not enough.

"Fantastic location, with everything we needed."
-
"A wonderful location and fantastic hosts."
We really enjoyed seeing the farm animals. A cosy home from home.
-
"The Stables is in a great place you can do lots off walks straight from the door."
It is a bit tight to get in the gateway you just have to take a wide sweep in. The owners were very helpful even supplied us with a map of local walks and a few suggestion of local pubs to go for food. We would definitely go back again.
-
"Beautiful location, will definitely be visiting the area again."
-
"A lovely cottage for a family of 5."
The children enjoyed watching the goings on on the farm from the upstairs windows and found it funny to be in an "upside down" house. The owners were very friendly and helpful.
-

Wonderful location with great walks from the door.
-
"Amazing cottage and lovely family who own the farm."

Where you’ll be staying
NEWBIGGIN-ON-LUNE
Kirkby Stephen 6 miles; Sedbergh 12 miles.
The tranquil village of Newbiggin-on-Lune lies at the foot of the Howgill Fells, quietly sitting between the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Parks. It is a delightful rural village with a thriving local community and many traditional old dwellings. Hill farming is the principal means of income in the area and an agricultural show is still held once a year on the fells, echoing the markets and shows of days gone by. The local river, the Lune for which the village was named, is very popular for trout fishing. Nearby Ravenstonedale, once described by Wainwright as one of Westmorland’s loveliest villages, boasts three pubs, all serving fine ales and modern cuisine. The area offers many walking and cycling routes, both on and off road, whilst the nearby attractions provide something for everybody. Visit the Settle to Carlisle Railway Line, the magnificent Howgill Fells and the stunning Yorkshire Dales and Lake District National Parks. A superb location at any time of the year.
