Mrs Hill
October 2020

“Holiday cottage was very homely, warm and welcoming.”

Gill, the owner was lovely and left us a lovely cake, milk, bread and home made jam. Our two dogs enjoyed their morning walk round the field in front of the house. Great area for visiting both Cumbria and Yorkshire.

Mr Storey October 2020

“Very friendly owners who made us and our dogs feel very welcome.”

On arrival there was a small welcome pack which contained an absolutely brilliant chocolate cake and home made jam. The Holliday was a total chill out before heading back for a lockdown. The cottage was well furnished with antique furniture which axed to its charm Will defiantly go back again

“Please check your electronic email system.”

The emails were constantly saying no dogs when in fact the booking was with a dog. Other than that the farmhouse was great

“Beautiful, spacious accommodation with gorgeous views of the countryside.”

Exceptionally good position for exploring the surrounding areas. Views from all windows were beautiful. Owners friendly and helpful.

Mrs Burnett July 2018

“Lovely cottage, the only point I would make is the hedging at the entrance could be cut back to show sign when driving past, as it is overgrown and covers the sign (hornsbarrow) over and we drove past a couple of times.”

Everything else was just right thank yo

- Mrs Burnett, July 2018
Mrs Lyne June 2018

“What a stunning place to stay .”

The views are superb . The homemade cake and jam is a lovely touch , along with the fresh bread , milk and eggs. The only thing I would say is maybe consider investing in summer duvets. The ones on the beds were thick and heavy which in winter are great But made it uncomfortable in the hot weather . However would love to go back and do more exploring

- Mrs Lyne, June 2018
