Moorhurst Cottage

Lovely relaxing property with ample provision of equipment.

External patio is not so attractive and is restrictive but as a base for relaxation and exploration it was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed out stay.

Great location, fab views, quiet, easy parking roadside, fully equipped, luxurious shower, 5 mins from Grange, and 2 mins from a lovely walk into town.

A week was not enough!

Another lovely stay at Moorhurst Cottage.

Situated in a quiet area near Kents Bank train station, the cottage is well-equipped and spotlessly clean. The views over the estuary are stunning. Everything you could possibly need is provided, including wine on arrival! Communication with the owner was excellent. Perfect!

The cottage was beautiful.

It had everything we needed. Amazing views and great location.

Very comfortable, and in a lovely position looking out over the estuary.

Easy parking and access. Everything we needed was provided and in excellent condition. To have the delightful rail station so close by was a real bonus.

The cottage was beautiful and as described.

It has everything one needs for a comfortable family holiday and a fully equipped kitchen and laundry area for a young family. The views were spectacular and something our family thoroughly enjoyed and even painted. Literally every window looks out at the view! It's easy to find, access and park at. And we had a lovely few days staying there and exploring the Lake District. Thank you!

Beautiful cottage with lovely decor and furnishings, immaculately clean, really comfy bed and with everything you need for a great stay.

Cottage is in a quiet location and has wonderful views from lounge and bedrooms. Highly recommend, would like to stay again at some point in the future. Train station 5 minutes walk down the road to have a quick jaunt on the train to Grange-Over-Sands or on to Arnside.

Very warm and cozy cottage with magnificent views.

Easy parking and access into the building. Unconventional layout upstairs, but the arrangement still works. Friendly and helpful owner who showed me how to turn on the boiler.

3rd visit to this cottage .

Fantastic views. Feels like home from home. Everything you need.

This cottage is a gem.

Warm, cosy well laid out and beautiful furnishings. Yes you can’t stand up in the toilet upstairs but you get used to it and it’s very handy. The outdoor space is ideal and the views are worth a million dollars. It’s a retreat and so quiet. A very calming and therapeutic place to stay. Already thinking of returning. A real escape from everyday life. Highly recommended

Moorhurst is a lovely cottage.

Very comfortable. Tastefully decorated. In a great spot....wonderful views. We had a grand week.

Excellent, clean and very comfortable home from home cottage with the most wonderful tidal panoramic view from all south facing windows.

It should be made clear that the toilet upstairs is in the mezzanine and is too small to stand up in.

This caused us real problems and was a shame because if it had been made clear we wouldn’t have rented this property. It is also too big a stretch to call the outside a garden. The rest of the house was delightful!

The property is beautifully furnished to a high degree and would rate a five star had it not been for the outside sitting area being very small and not achieving the same standard as inside with standing water in the corner unable to drain away,lovely visits to arnside and ulverston

Lovely cottage in a good location for visiting lots of lovely places.

The views from the cottage are lovely . Very comfortable beds and the cottage is well equipped. Holker hall is worth a visit and Coniston and Hawkshead very nice.

A wonderful place, it had all you could need even having Netflix, wow.

Everything was clean and of good quality. If it wasn’t so far from home we would stay again. I can’t paise it highly enough. We loved it. The views from your beds in the morning. We did have exceptional weather.we had breakfast every morning outside. It was magic. We also enjoyed the trains, although you only see the tops. We had a train ride to Morcombe from Kent Bank, how quaint, so convenient.

Good place and we had a great week, amazed about how peaceful given the surrounding properties and the railway line.

Good for exploring the area, fortunate to have great weather A few problems: Bit of a technophobe so struggled to use the television and the oven, found the instructions confusing Found stairs steep and nearly gave myself concussion hitting my head on the bedroom ceiling when turning on the bedside light in 2nd bedroom

A very relaxing and peaceful place to stay.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to find good quality, pet free cottages. My husband has allergies, so it's a must for us. We are so glad we came across Moorhurst. Everything was just as described and very clean. The beds were extremely comfortable and the rainfall shower is amazing! Although there are other properties surrounding the cottage, it was very quiet. There was plenty of information in the cottage for things to do. All the appliances were user friendly. There's not much outside space, but the views from the windows more than make up for that. Definitely somewhere we would like to revisit in the future. Well done to the owners for providing such a great place to stay.

The cottage was not only clean and comfortable but a place of beauty, with tasteful decor, colour and views of the estuary.

The text on arrival from the owners and the bottle of wine provided a thoughtful welcome. It was well positioned for local transport links and felt very safe. Definitely a place to return to and recommend.

We had a wonderful stay.

The cottage is beautiful and very clean and well kept. The view over the bay was magical and the hosts kind and helpful. Would recommend without hesitation - thanks for a wonderful stay!

We had a lovely week at Moorhurst Cottage.

The cottage was equipped to a very high standard, with plenty of nice crockery,and kitchen equipment. Lovely little finishing touches throughout. The linen and towels were of good quality. Every consideration was given to make it a lovely comfortable place to relax in. The views over the bay were an absolute delight! thankyou.

Fabulous property with delightful views over the estuary.

Cottage comfortable and bath linen and bed linen all top quality. Comfortable bed! Kitchen well equipped. Upstairs quirky as the second bedroom is off the first bedroom. Ok for families, but awkward if staying with friends. The upstairs toilet although cramped was a real bonus as bathroom is situated downstairs, so saves having to go downstairs during the night. A lovely cottage, tastefully decorated, constant hot water, and gas fire which is very efficient. Would 100% stay again.

The cottage was simply perfect!

Beautifully presented in an amazing location. We will definitely return.

We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Moorhurst.

The cottage was perfect for a small group and very comfy. The views over the estuary were superb whatever the weather. We felt very relaxed after a week there and will certainly be back.

Really enjoyed our relaxing break at Moorhurst cottage.

The owners have thought about every detail to make sure that your stay is comfortable and looks fabulous. Loved the views over the estuary and being able to do some birdwatching from the windows. Felt very relaxed after our stay would recommend this place to all. We probably will be back again soon.

Fabulous cottage, with lots of character.

Tastefully furnished with all the amenities you could possibly need. And spectacular views over the bay. We would not hesitate to return in the future.

Fantastic cottage in a great place.

Very relaxing and our 3rd time back was as good as ever. Superb views across the estuary and the cottage is to a very high standard. We will be returning again next year!

A cosy cottage with fantastic views across the bay.

It is considerately and stylishly furnished, even with a handy pair of binoculars for the bird watching. We love staying here and escaping from our regular life for a few days.

Moorhurst is the most beautiful little cottage and was a great base for us to go and explore the Lake District.

Beautifully decorated and clean, with everything you could need, with great use of nooks and cranny’s! The views across the bay were fabulous. Bedrooms funny layout as you get to the 2nd room through the master, wouldn’t be an issue for families or 2 couples that don’t want 100% privacy! As a sole couple though didn’t bother us at all though! What else to say other than there is a fabulous little tea shop at Haslemere as you come into the sands, with a great traditional bakery, lovely bread and cakes and very reasonably priced. Thank you for a wonderful stay, hope to return soon!

Overall great but if we'd had children with us the upstairs toilet is too small to be practical and being right at the top of the stairs makes it a little unsafe.

Also, whilst it's a nice gesture to receive a bottle of wine, I would gladly have swapped it for a bottle of milk and some tea/coffee. We didn't expect a hamper but for the price paid you would expect basic refreshments and toiletries.

Yet again a fantastic week staying at Moorhurst cottage, highly recommended, all the comforts of home, with views over Morecambe Bay.

Excellent,

We loved everything about the property especially the scenic location- perhaps you could organise better weather for us next time!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the cottage is so cosy, very well organised, everything you need.

The beds are extremely comfortable, and sitting up in bed to see the amazing view, also watching the stars at night laid in bed, very relaxing week. Great for recharging your batteries. Plenty of good pubs, restaurants and tea rooms in the area. Great base to explore both the coast and countryside. Would definitely recommend. Also thank you for the bottle of wine, very nice.

Wonderful stay at Moorhurst cottage.

Comfortable and homely. Good location for walking and easy access to the Lake District. Easy access to the trains connecting coastal destinations. Wonderful views and decent outdoor space. Good communication with cottage contact. Well stocked kitchen for self catering. Would definitely return without hesitation and recommend to family and friends.

What can I say… Moorhurst definitely didn’t disappoint!

!! Absolutely stunning!!! Really nice cottage inside and out! Lovely area, close to all amenities, wish I would of booked for longer! Only one thing I would bring up is that there are people living below the cottage and the hard floor throughout makes it quite noisy for the people living below, I do believe this should be mentioned in the listing for the property!

Superb cottage and holiday.

Great views and very well equipped high specification cottage. We have stayed before and loved it and loved it this time too. We will be booking for next year.

We had a great week here and loved the cottage.

Thanks for letting us stay in such a well appointed little house, in a perfect spot. We were blessed with an excellent weather week and loved seeing the ever changing views from the windows. We immediately booked for the same week next year, which says it all really. Thanks K&L

We have stayed at Moorhurst Cottage before and so staying there for Christmas was extra special.

The location is great to be as busy or as quiet as you want to make it with Bowness being just a short drive away. The facilities within the cottage are great with everything you need for your stay, the cottage is spotlessly clean and very welcoming making you instantly relax. Moorhurst is exactly the same as the photos. Due to it being Christmas we had a few days where we just stayed in watching movies, playing games and spending hours just watching the ever changing view from the windows out across the bay. No matter the time, day or night, the view is just mesmerising. Due to us doing a back to back stay everything was organised in advance for our extra long stay with the owners for bedding and towels. We absolutely love Moorhurst Cottage and loved our special Christmas stay.

Moorhurst cottage/apartment is a lovely, quirky little place.

The design, tasteful decor, fixtures and fittings have been well thought out by the owners. Comfy beds, powerful shower, power-points and mirrors where you need them together with good quality kitchen appliances. The owners have put a lot of thought with attention to detail including a pair of binoculars, maps, books, games together with a lovely bottle of wine. It was very quiet with just the occasional car and train passing by and no noise from adjoining properties. Kents Bank railway station about 5 minutes walk away. Our only disappointment on arrival was seeing scaffolding covering adjoining property that overhung Moorhurst and obstructed the view of the Bay. Work had finished so this should not be a problem for others once removed but we had not had warning to expect this.

We had an excellent holiday in a beautiful cottage with superb views.

Moorhurst Cottage is a wonderful place!

It was refurbished with a lot of love and style and is extremely cosy. The beds were comfortable, the view amazing, the kitchen small but complete and everything was very clean. The kids loved the super tiny toilet upstairs. The cottage was also supplied with bathroom and kitchen essentials, which was especially pleasant for us as travellers from Europe who couldn't bring much. We enjoyed the view, the walks to Grange-over-Sands and it has been a very relaxing holiday for us that will surely be repeated sometime soon. Thank you very much!

We absolutely loved our stay here.

The cottage itself is really beautiful and thoughtfully equipped. It felt very homely. Grange Over Sands is a really brilliant base from which to explore the Lakes while staying in a quieter location, which was exactly what we were hoping for. The owners have added lovely little touches such as books about the Lake District and other information to help you learn about the area and its history and to find your way around, and there was a bottle of wine waiting for us on arrival which we would never expect but is so appreciated. The views are of Grange Over Sands are heavenly, the cottage is in a peaceful location with exceptionally lovely and friendly neighbours who were only too happy to share their wonderful local wisdom with us, which added to how welcome we felt staying there. Thank you for providing the most perfect base for our week exploring the Lakes; we can't wait to come back!

A beautiful cottage which was spotlessly clean.

Gorgeous views - very comfortable beds and bedding - a real home from home with everything you need. If you are a family that need a garden this probably isn’t the place for you - there is a little yard where we sometimes sat to take in the views and have a meal. Easy reach to beauty spots

Very nice cottage, good design and decor and well equipped.

Lovely views across the bay. Owner very kindly left a bottle of wine for us.

Best place I've stayed in years!

Stunning views, thoughtful, high spec design, beautifully clean and well equipped. Quiet, peaceful, location right on the estuary and 8mins walk to Kent Banks Station so really easy base to explore the 'Lake District Peninsula'. We had breakfast on the terrace looking out over the bay. Lovely walk into Grange along the promenade. Excellent attention to detail and nice touches...binoculars, OS map, bottle of wine, selection of books about the area and history of the cottage. Book if you get the chance!

I stayed at Moorhurst Cottage for a week recently with my sister.

We both thoroughly enjoyed our time there, especially as the weather was very kind. The cottage, (which is actually a 2 storey flat), has been very tastefully renovated and decorated. It was very comfortable and well equipped and although the kitchen is quite small, we managed to do what we needed to do. The views across Morecambe Bay are stunning and an ever changing vista as the tide comes and goes. The cottage was very clean and our only criticism would be that there is only a small paved area to sit out on with a few pots of plants and a picnic-type table. (We did discover a couple of fold-up camping-type chairs in the utility cupboard.) The view is wonderful from there but it did not create the best impression when we first arrived as the key safe is near the back door which gives onto the terrace. A lot of dead leaves had blown in, probably due to the high winds we have had recently but which had not been cleared away. It is a fabulous area to visit with easy access to the Lake District. Although quite a small town, Grange-over-Sands has a number of high quality food shops with plenty of cafes and watering holes. Other towns such as Kendal and Ulverston are not far away. There is a small railway station at Kent’s Bank which is also on a bus route but neither buses nor trains are very frequent. We would both be very happy to return to Moorhurst Cottage in the future.

Well what can I say?

? Moorhurst cottage was a delight to send a week there. The cottage itself was clean .Its was bright and airy.The views crossed the bay are lovely (on a clear day). We will definitely be back on the future

I WAS DISAPPOINTED AS IT IS MORE A FLAT THAN A COTTAGE IT HAD A GARDEN FLAT UNDER IT THE TV WAS RIGHT ABOVE THERE BED ROOM SO I COULD NOT WATCH IT ON A NIGHT AS I HAVE THE SOUND UP THE PATIO WAS SMALL AND LOOKED OVER TEN DUST BINS THERE WAS NO WHERE TO COOK PROPERLY AS THERE IS NO WORK SPACE

Beautiful cottage only failure upstairs toilet but rest lovely

Moorhurst Cottage which has the most stunning view across the Arnside Estuary is extremely stylish and well resourced.

Simply one of the best we have stayed in.

Fantastic!

The cottage was one of the best we have stayed in and was very clean, comfortable and of a high spec. Excellent bedding, beds and towels. Great shower. We totally loved the views and the whole very relaxing stay. We will be back again! And again! Wonderful.

Everything you could need for a cosy and comfortable stay.

The location is peaceful and the vista ever changing. Close proximity to the promenade path into Grange made for just enough walking to make coffee and cake at the Hazelmere tearooms a great half way stop. Kents Bank station just down the hill meant we hardly used the car- Ulverston 11 minutes away over the estuary. Moorhurst was just what we needed after months of staying at home, and it didn’t disappoint.

Excellent cottage with great facilities.

Brilliant views with the ever changing tides and skyline. Kent Bank station very near.

Excellent in every respect.

. surpassed expectations in all area … a wonderful stay Thankyou !

Have stayed here before, we return as it’s a fabulous cottage with great access to train and nearby attractions.

However on this visit our evenings spoilt due to not being able to hear the TV?!? No remote supplied for TV just the Sky Remote which did not alter volume, went into settings to pair the remote but with no luck. We think owners have put a “hotel mode” on tv to stop having it too loud, but the volume set was ridiculously low, we could not hear a thing on Netflix or Disney+. Our evenings planned spoilt as we always spend them with a meal followed by board games then finish off with a film. Very disappointed and frustrating to say the least on this stay @ Moorhurst. We also feel in 2022 it’s about time a somewhat larger TV could be installed it is extremely small and has been to he same TV for some years now.

Lovely place go stay for a break before Christmas.

Cozy.

Thirdstay, first time under new owners who had high standards to meet and they have done.

Happy to have returned and will do so again.

What a beautiful sanctuary.

We loved staying there and plan to stay again.

What a beautiful cottage - we had a fabulous stay and definitely hope to come back next year Thank you

This cottage was amazing, very well equipped and had everything we need.

Very comfortable and great location for visiting the lakes. The view over the estuary was a bonus great sunrises and sunsets. Highly recommended this cottage will be back. Thanks for making our holiday fantastic.

The cottage is lovely with fabulous views, and good for exploring the surrounding areas.

We have used Sykes cottages several times over the last few years and we have again enjoyed a wonderful time at Moorhurst cottage with stunning views over the estuary.

Upon our arrival the cleaners turned up.

This was around 1645hrs with a 1700hr checking. We were subsequently 20mins late getting in. The clean felt rushed and not covid secure. No tea towels left only one and half rolls of toilet paper for three guests for a week? The pillows on beds were unusable to offer no support. Luckily we had bought our own. The cushion covers on the sofas smelt unpleasant. The location was very good as a point to explore the area and the view was lovely.
