“We moved to this cottage during our holiday from another cottage nearby.”

The other place was beautifully located among the hills, more spacious but unfortunately full of mice. It was a very quick decision to move into Manor Lodge and not well researched. We were very happy at Manor Lodge as the owner was very friendly and helpful. The place was very clean and had everything we needed.

“Beautiful upside down cottage.”

Excellent facilities. In a great position to explore local area. Close to shops, pubs and restaurants. Would definitely stay there again.

“Central Accommodaton in Kirkby Stephen”

The property was very clean and comfortable with plenty of room for the two of us. However, although both bedrooms were quite spacious, the living/dining area would be very cramped for four adults diining in. The property is described as 'set in beautiful mature gardens' however, this is the owner's garden which you do not have access to, without the owners permission; a fact that should be highlighted in the description. The property is very well situated within an easy five to ten minutes walk to all the shops, pubs, restaurants and takeaways in the town. It should also be noted that the property is next to a busy main road with traffic noise even on an night, in case this may bother you. We did enjoy our stay at Manor Lodge and despite some wet weather, found plenty of walks in the vicinity of Kirkby Stephen, in the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District.

“The place was amazing, just enough for a family of four.”

Clean and lovely. Quiet and magical. Would be nice to have an access to the garden, for a lazy day, but not too big of an issue as we went there with the plans to visit Lake District National park and were out and about all day.

“The manor is in an absolutely perfect location.”

We are keen walkers so used every day to head out somewhere from the lodge to nearby villages. The Taggy Man pub was a regular for drinks on the way home. Although the lodge is on the grounds of the main Manor House it felt very private. It is well equipped and comfortable and not having WiFi reduced the chance of us looking at work bits whilst away! It had everything we needed to kick back and relax after a very stressful few weeks with work. It is a little gem in a gorgeous village and we will be back I am sure!

“Mr”

Lovely place to stay - close to village centre for all amenities, clean, comfortable and with all the essentials and utilities you need. Walked in the Eden Valley plus ideal base for Ullswater, Derwent Water and Rydal in the lakes - last day we day tripped to York, c 90 mins away. Recommend and would rent again if we go back to the area.

“Perfect location for visiting nortern England”

We stayed in Kirkby Stephne for a week. We travelled with car. The cottage was clean and had a good standard. It was situated closed to the Town centre. Just 5 minutes walk to pubs and resturants. The cottage is small, and maximum 4 person. On the down side: one bathroom but that was ok for us, just beeing two person. No wifi, but you can live without internet for a week. The pub "Black Bull" in Town centre has free wifi - and good ale and food! The purpose for us was golf, and there is a lot of courses closed to Kirkby Stephens. I recommend Appleby golf course.

“Brilliant Week In Kirkby Stephen”

We have just returned from a fantastic week at Manor Lodge, yes we got the weather which always helps but the situation and comfort there was excellent.All rooms were spotless and it's so comfortable, we slept like " Logs" all week, it has everything you need and the garden is private and quite stunning.If you enjoy nature then you could spend all day bird watching from the verandah, we had a Tawny Owl every night sitting quietly for half an hour opposite the entrance and teens of Bats. The Kirkby Stephen Macaws were briefly seen, heard first as usual, they remain an interesting feature of the town, we first spotted them over ten years ago whilst out walking, we thought that we had spotted a rare bird but now know that they return to aviary every night but are allowed free travel throughout the day . The owners were polite and helpful, the situation is two minutes from the centre of town and there is plenty of room to park and you are then straight on to the main road. We walked everyday, the Howgills/Dales/Eden Valley/Mallerstang and Wild Boar ranges are all within minutes by car.We have never understood why this area is not more popular.The Town is small but has adequate options re eating and drinking, it has 3 Fish&Chip Shops for a start, The White Lion sells beer for £2 a pint ( Bitter/ Lager ) The Coast To Coast Chippie sells Fish&Chips/peas for £3:80p so you can't go wrong!

“Jones family Kirby Stephen lodge rental”

What an excellent spot to enjoy the area in and around Kirkby Stephen. Manor Lodge was easy to find, provided excellent facilities overall and was a very brief walk to shops and restaurants. A private, off-road parking space next to the lodge was a good start; a place to store four bikes under a wooden walkway was helpful and a first view of the lodge when opening the door was like a home from home! There was a well-equipped kitchen, a clean bathroom and two clean bedrooms; all very homely. It took less than five minutes to walk to any shop or restaurant (and there was a variety of dining opportunities in the main street) and we set off from the lodge on three major walks and two cycle rides with map in hand - easy! A day trip to Carlisle on the Settle to Carlisle Railway was great too. The whole family would recommend this rental to anyone wanting to visit the area.

“We stayed for a long weekend during the pandemic, and it was just what we needed.”

Beautiful place for a short break, and although it says you may hear traffic noise we didn't hear a thing. It was so peacefully and the fire at night was the perfect way to spend our evenings relaxing, watching films and enjoying the surroundings. We went into town on our second day, wondered around a little market and visited some of the shops. It was lovely. I would definitely recommend staying here.

“Peace, quiet and comfort.”

Excellent accommodation in area of natural beauty. Good activities and sights close to Kirkby Stephen and Lake District close enough for a day activity there if you want it. Accommodation was clean,warm and well-equipped.

“Beautiful accomodation”

Beautiful home set in a glorious garden. We even saw a Heron in the garden pond outside one of the bedrooms on two occasions. Ideal location to explore the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales. The photographs do not do the home justice as it is much larger than expected. The only thing we least liked was having to carry our cases up the steps but its only on the first and last day so not a big problem.
