Cockle Bay Cottage

The cottage is gorgeous and we would definitely want to stay there again.

It's really clean, well presented and in a fabulous location close to beautiful walks and a great pub.

Enjoy our stay in Cockle Bay cottage, it was clean and well- equipped.

Near the beach to walk the dog and all so The Burrow was a lovely walk. And we love the welcome pack. Thank u

We have stayed here previously, its still as lovely as it was 7 years ago, would recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay at Cockle Bay Cottage, it was spotlessly clean and very well-equipped, I didn't want for anything in the kitchen in terms of utensils or pots and pans, which is not always the case for other cottages we have stayed in previously.

We enjoyed all the nice touches throughout the property on terms of decor, and ornaments, which made it feel like home for our Christmas stay. Arriving to find milk in the fridge and even some Christmas puddings as a welcome was a lovely touch too. It was a nice relaxing break for both of us, and Barley the dog. Its the second time we have stayed in the village over Christmas and would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed a pleasant comfortable week (11 to 18 October 2025) in this cottage.

It has a homely feel to it with small artefacts everywhere It is well equipped for those, like us, who want to cook. Quietly located in Heysham village In sunny weather the two terraces in the garden would be delightful

Ideally placed for walking the seafront and half moon bay.

Cottage is well set out but kitchen tools need replacing/adding to. We only really use it as a base to sleep and eat breakfast.

We loved the Cockle Bay Cottage, beautiful to be in a little village, so quiet, and with beautiful views of the bay, and within walking distance to the beach, which was great for walking the dog, close to Morecambe, Lancaster and the Lakes.

Unfortunately the only down side was for the 1st 10 days of our holiday we had heavy rain and found it difficult to dry clothes, coats etc. We would definitely love to stay again.

Lovely clean comfortable cottage.

Everything provided. Only downfall parking car.

Perfect cosy cottage was a little apprehensive about been dog friendly but you wouldn’t know Clean well presented well equipped quality furnishings bedding towels etc Garden on 2 levels also well equipped plenty of places to sit fabulous view Village is pretty and friendly felt so comfortable had everything you need right on doorstep Would highly recommended

A really nice place, maybe a few too many steps for us, but a great location.

Local facilities were ideal.

A lovely cosy cottage, everything on hand made our 5 day break enjoyable & the best weather we had too!

Bed is so comfy, the back garden is well planned & a sun trap! A very handy location for the Lakes & the Yorkshire Dales, the village of Heysham is well worth exploring. Well recommended, will definitely book this Cottage again

We loved our break, the thoughtfulness of the owners was excellent.

A nice welcome pack was waiting for us, as well as all the everyday consumables you could need. Some really useful information was always to hand in the welcome pack. We’ll definitely be back in the future.

The cottage is lovely.

Beautifully furnished and decorated. Very well equipped even down to dog bowls, dog towel and throws for the furniture. Lovely spot for walking the bay. Would definitely recommend this for anybody wanting to visit the area. We would go back again

We really enjoyed our stay, although the neighbours were extremely difficult.

When we arrived we pulled into the bay by the property to unload our belongings, a young woman from the house in front of the bay immediately came out and shouted at us, she also insulted me when I told her we were only unpacking our stuff, we didn’t plan on parking there. The lady at the back said there’s been a lot of bother from them; however they didn’t bother us again. Then my husband and I were in the kitchen with the door open at the back when a large dog came bounding through the door and tried to attack me, my husband threw water on it and was able to intimidate the dog so that it moved and we managed to barricade ourselves behind the back door until finally my husband closed the door. I was quite shaken by the experience. My husband shouted through the window for the neighbour at the end to get his dog- he didn’t and it continued to bark aggressively at us from behind the door; bearing its teeth and ready to attack when we tried to open/close the door window to shout to the man. He was actually hiding behind his gate as we could see him ducking behind the door. I’m concerned that if I had have been a child or my new 12 week old puppy- this would have been a sad story. I loved the cottage though, so beautiful, comfortable and clean. I would say that I wouldn’t take children or elderly people, just in case. Unless the problem is resolved but how could you resolve this? I would not allow this to stop you renting this property- it really is that good, just be careful about the parking and be careful in the shared backyard where there’s no gate between you and the end neighbours with the dog. (The neighbour has a gate but he’d obviously opened it to let his dog out). Ok, so the garden is absolutely gorgeous, very quirky set up on two/three levels. Lovely lady lives next door feeds the seagulls everyday, be careful there’s loads of them that flock there- not a problem for us as we weren’t home in the morning. BBQ area is pleasantly arranged and plenty of seating and cushions. The lights didn’t work when we were there, but we weren’t in the garden late anyway. Overall I would stay here again because it felt very homely, but I’d be extremely careful out the back door in the communal yard part. We never saw the dog before or after it attacked us. There is a gate on the main garden and it’s one step from the back door. Just be careful as you always are in public areas. And don’t speak to the house on the left of the property, very rude. The heating was perfect, bedding ok, decor and condition of the place was just right and spotlessly clean. In a near perfect location. Two large Terraces that look across the bay- stunning. Thanks again.

A warm, snug cottage very convenient for coastal walks and with an excellent pub nearby.

Beautiful cottage fantastic views over the bay highly recommended it

We found Cockle Bay Cottage to be a wonderful place to stay.

Well maintained and comfortable. The layout, although initially seemed odd, worked well and was a good use of space. The local area is very interesting also. Highly recommend.
