Fleshbeck Cottage

A lovely stay in a comfortable and homely cottage, with helpful and friendly owners.

No complaints at all. The only slight adjustment you could make to the listing is that it is only half of the building in the photo; this was not clear until I read some of the reviews.

This was a lovely proper cottage really nicely situated only 3 miles from Kirkby Lonsdale with lot's of walks from your doorstep.

We stayed over Christmas and the cottage was decorated for the festive period. The pictures on the site didn't do the cottage justice especially outside. I would highly recommend this cottage.

The Map location is slightly ahead than the actual location.

Amazing stay with great host.

Nice place , seating area outside, very peaceful all positive.

Clean and welcoming cottage.

Loved it!

Fleshbeck Cottage was a most beautiful cottage and was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed to have a wonderful time.

It was close to Kirkby Lonsdale where there were many shops and tearooms which we enjoyed. It was also close to both the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales. We would highly recommend this cottage and would definitely return.

We loved our stay at Fleshbeck Cottage.

This beautiful place is very well equipped and looked after, in a picturesque, quiet neighbourhood, a fantastic base for trips in and around the Lake District. Professional and friendly owners complete the picture of a perfect location.

A very tranquil cottage to stay at, ideal for winding down.

Ideal base location with acess to the Lakes within the hour. Very quiet, and no hastle, will be back...

Absolutely loved this cottage and the location.

Exceptionally clean. Very comfortable. All the facilities needed. A wonderful place for my husband's birthday. The children really enjoyed it. We will definitely be back!

A beautiful property set in a beautiful location.

The ideal place to completely unwind and de-stress.

Thanks so much Angie and Mal - we totally loved the cottage, slept so well, did lots of jigsaws, lots of walking.

As a child I spent many a family day out at Devil's Bridge, so was lovely to be able to share with my daughter and husband. The kitchen is fabulously equipped (as a family we enjoy cooking a lot, and so cooking our favourite meals is a holiday treat).

We had a lovely week in this charming cottage which was clean, comfortable & cool in the recent heatwave thanks to the thick stone walls!

We loved the peaceful location & enjoyed relaxing in the pretty garden. The area is beautiful with many places to visit within a short drive.

The cottage was very comfortable and is in the middle of beautiful countryside.

All arrival and departure arrangements were smooth. Both Sykes and the owners were easy to contact.

nice and quiet, comfortable and clean, very relaxing place to stay (driving on some of the tiny roads aside) would be very happy to stay again.

Had a lovely time.

So peaceful. Really love the cottage and would definitely recommend it.

A lovely cottage in a great rural location with easy access to Kirkby Lonsdale, the Yorkshire Dales and The Lakes.

We will definitely be back in 2022 (that's the best recommendation)

Very clean and well equipped cottage

We had a lovely time and the weather played ball and was glorious!

The cottage is clean , well equipped and the beds are comfortable. It was a puzzle trying to find the recycling bins , as we didn’t realise we had to share . The window in the bathroom could do with having a blind or curtain. However, it is a very nice cottage and we enjoyed touring the surrounding areas .

The cottage is listed as semi detached however no mention of other cottages and shared parking area etc.

Although the other residents were not a bother except for a small parking issue which we resolved. The outside area needs some care, the paved area is in need of some repair as it makes the table unsteady, one of the chairs provided need replaced/repaired - one had a broken arm. The grassed area is lovely. The cottage was extremely comfortable and clean, well equipped too. Overall a good choice for a visit to the area. The owner came to see we had settled in ok how to get hold of them if any issues etc. but did not bother us throughout our stay. We would recommend Fleshbeck to anyone looking for a place to stay.

Lovely cottage in a rural spot but with good access to the lakes and the dales.

Clean and comfortable and thoughtfully decorated. Has a lovely front garden that we enjoyed using. Would happily return!

The only thing was the kitchen could do with an extractor fan

Complete satisfaction with Sykes as a holiday booking company.

This is the second time we have stayed at Fleshbeck Cottage. The ? 17th century cottage which has been renovated is located in a lovely rural setting just outside of the town of Kirby Lonsdale. This town is a good base for a central visiting many of the key sites in Yorkshire, Cumbria and Lancashire (most being within 1 hours drive). The cottage is warm, cosy and comfortable and the owners close by/easily accessible to assist with any matters. Happy to provide a recommendation for this cottage and company

Quiet place which you can really relax in.

very comfortable and clean.

Highly recommended - would love to come back.

Picture-perfect cottage and well appointed inside. The small garden and patio area was ideal for breakfast coffees or star-gazing with a glass of wine. Located on a very quiet lane, 10' drive along Lune valley from Kirkby Lonsdale. Perfectly suited for exploring the Yorkshire Dales and for quick access to the Lakes. Recommend not to miss the Thursday morning market in KL.

Very comfortable cottage in quiet countryside.

Enclosed garden for my dog was a bonus and being south facing it was lovely to sit out on the patio in the sun. Comfy bed, warm central heating, good shower, well equipped kitchen with lovely crockery, large TV with free view, good WiFi....everything was perfect. I recommend the Inn in Barbon for a pint or The Milking Parlour in Kirkby Lonsdale for ice cream after a day’s hike! There’s also a large Booths in KL for shopping, market day is Thursday, and there are 2 good golf courses nearby. The drive through Barbondale and along Dentdale is spectacular and the climb up Barbon Low Fell gives great views. I’ve booked for next year already which says it all really!

The photo on the website didn't do justice to the property inside.

The cottage was extremely well appointed, probably one of the best we've stayed in, and was clean. The bathroom was very small but it, too, was clean and had everything we needed. Its location was beautifully quiet but handy for lots of different locations and activities. We would love to go back again.

A newly renovated, warm and cosy cottage set in a lovely location.

We were a bit apprehensive as we have never stayed in a dog-friendly cottage before, but the cottage was extremely clean and looked after. The kitchen was well equipped with every thing you could possibly need. No dishwasher but no problem, the lovely crockery would not have been able to go in there anyway! We met the owners briefly and and they were lovely and friendly. Couldn't fault our stay.

The cottage is lovely and the area is very unspoilt and quiet.

The cottage was very clean and well equipped. The fireplace was stunning and it was great being able to get extra logs from next door. Polite suggestions the garden furniture needs replacing and the dvd didn’t seem to work but overall a lovely holiday thank you

A very comfortable cosy cottage with everything we needed perhaps a dishwasher would have made it perfect.

The efficient central heating was much appreciated.

A beautiful, quaint and cosy cottage.

So peaceful. Beautiful outlook over nearby farmland. Walks right on the doorstep. Spooky scratching from the loft!! If there was any criticism it'd have to be the hob that was so fierce even when turned to No 1 on the dial. Food burned very quickly! Just thought I'd mention it. I'd definitely return though.

Lovely cottage.

Owners very friendly and helpful.

Just had a great holiday will definitely go back

The picture of the cottage is misleading as it implies a detached cottage and therefore we were very disappointed on arrival to find that not only was it actually in a small group of cottages, it was semi-detached and we had neighbours with dogs that barked a lot.

It was only on reading the finer detail at the very bottom of the advertisement after we arrived, that we found the note that it was semi-detached. Regrettably also, some of the cooking utensils were not clean (fat on the inside of a frying pan and some plates not clean) which in light of the current concerns about Covid-19, did not make us feel very relaxed. I did mention this to the owners as I think it is important for them to be aware and assume they thought the previous occupants had done everything. - not quite the idyllic peace and quiet we had hoped for.

We had a wonderful long weekend with Fleshbeck as our base & our only grumble was that we didn't book a full week.

The property was as-listed & we were very cosy there. I'd happily recommend this cottage to anyone wanting to stay in the area.

Due to boiler/heating breaking down I couldn't stay in the cottage I had booked (Low Green Cottage).

Quick acting from both owner + Sykes set me up in Fleshbeck Cottage nearby which was very much appreciated.

I have been staying in this cottage for years now and it's all been completely redecorated since last year and also new central heating works brilliantly!

!! The sofas could do with being replaced but they're perfectly adequate.

Wonderful place.

So relaxing

This is cracking cottage.

Very peaceful in the country but yet only short drive to Kirby Lonsdale. Cottage had everthing we needed. Open fire in the living room made the nights cosy. Would come again....

Property was looking a tad tired and in need of decoration.

We were not aware that the dining room window looked directly into the cottage behind ours. Very off putting when eating meals. The kitchen was also overlooked but had a net curtain at the window. The kitchen and bathroom were spotless, but other rooms could do with being given the same level of dusting. The garden was sadly quite neglected, and several shrubs and plants were in need off a good chop and tidy. There was no welcome pack, and this was the first cottage we have stayed in were there was no hairdryer. That said, the cottage is in a lovely place and we did have a relaxing holiday. It was also very kind and much appreciated that they let us bring a second dog.

Fleshbeck Cottage was everything we hoped it would be.

There was nothing that wasn’t included that we would have expected. Excellent facilities and WiFi was great. The local area was beautiful with great things to see. Had an excellent meal in The Snooty Fox well worth a visit. Lovely local shops too. Definitely somewhere is would return to. Thank you x

The cottage was in a lovely spot, very peaceful.

It was very clean & had just about everything you would need & being able to take the dog was a bonus, lovely little enclosed garden. However 3 things we felt let it down, there is no heat in the bathroom or bedrooms( there are plug in heaters in bedrooms so not such a problem),but it would have been nice to have somewhere to dry towels. On our first night we were cold, as the storage heater on landing didn't seem to come on till early morning. In the lounge there is a plug in heater, but without lighting the fire that is totally inadequate in the winter. The storage heater in dining room hardly felt warm. There is also just a plug in heater in kitchen. Thirdly it would have been nice to have proper sized bath towels. We did enjoy our stay & the cottage is obviously loved & well cared for, but I think you would struggle to be warm enough had the weather been snowing & frosty.

The cottage was great for a romantic weekend in the sticks.

Nearby Kirkby Lonsdale was a nice little town.

I think this is the fifth time we have booked this cottage and it is always a great pleasure to stay here.

The enclosed garden is perfect for our dog and the public footpath across the road provides a super walk, with fabulous views.

Great location for getting away from it all and close enough to Kirby Lonsdale to easily get extra provisions if needed.

Beautiful scenery and very quiet. In the cottage itself managed a couple of roaring fires, comfortable sofas and beds and no Wi-Fi issues with four I-pads on the go. Great short-stay and good value.

Third time at this cottage.

Enclosed garden perfect for the dog, very quiet location. Well equipped, bucket of coal and logs to light the range - very cosy. Near to Kirkby Lonsdale which is particularly lovely at Christmas.

The cottage is perfect for us because it is near Kirkby Lonsdale, which is lovely anyway, and we have family there.

The cottage has an enclosed garden which is really good for my dog. It is also a really quiet location, with nice walks.

Advertised as having WiFi but extremely poor throughout the entire house- may be worth mentioning.

The location was stunning, the garden was better than I expected as it was enclosed, making it safe for my (small) dog.

The locals walks were fabulous, with amazing views. Will definitely book again.

Could do with a few jobs doing around the accommodation, window catch in bedroom missing so could nt leave window open incase a gust of wind or something smashed the window as not secure.

Electric switch tripped 3 times during stay when switched kitchen light off causing lights to go out having to switch main trip switch to get lights working again. No welcome pack to tell u about recycling etc. Lovely clean spacious property .thouroghly enjoyed our stay . would go back if in the area again .

This was a well appointed cottage and my granddaughters loved it and want to return.
