“What a beautiful cottage in wonderful surroundings.”

...

The drive up the private road to the cottage made us feel very special, and we were taken aback by the beautiful views of the surrounding countryside and Wyreside Hall. Hudson cottage was well designed and laid out, and finished to a high standard. It also had a lovely secure garden that was nice although a little lacking in seating. Location wise was excellent, with Morecambe, Fleetwood, the Lakes & Trough of Bowland all within a 1/2-1 hr drive. There is a local pub about 1 1/2 miles away - The Fleece, which served excellent quality food and a nice choice of beers. Overall - a lovely holiday and is one cottage that we’d love to stay at again.

“Fabulous holiday home in an amazing location.”

House, grounds & hall are faultless. All people we met were friendly & extremely helpful. Only slight downside we’re not enough kitchen utensils, jug, peelers etc easy fixes. The large living room would benefit with a dining table. Big empty space going to waste. That apart looking forward to rebooking as we had a brilliant time, Thank you

“The Hudson property was amazing, very comfy and relaxing place 100% would reccomend to anyone.”

The only thing I would suggest is maybe replace kitchen knives as they werent sharp, handwash should be provided in bathrooms, a long mirror wouldve been nice in the place and finally everything looked very clean apart from the floor, when its stood on bare feet- there seems to be a lot of dirt and animal fur. Also there is no wifi in upstairs rooms and it is hard to get any reception there.

Mr Pennington August 2020

“Hudson provides great spacious accommodation in a unique setting as part of the Wyreside Hall estate.”

However, any visitors should realise that the accommodation is minimum of 20 minutes drive from any nearby shops (great if you are looking for a complete getaway, but not so great if you need any additional groceries etc whilst you are way). Also whilst the accommodation provides WiFi it is only available in the downstairs of the property and does not work throughout. This is a major downside if you have teenage children in your party and for accommodation of this standard, quality and price we would have expected WiFi throughout.

Mr Brown August 2020

“The accommodation was perfect for the four of us and our dog.”

The location is beautiful and the surrounding area stunning. The grounds of the accommodation are also great to explore. From a purely practical point-of-view, (and echoing a number of previous visitors) the most obvious improvements would be a larger (or additional) fridge/freezer, and the kitchen could do with some more basic utensils, cutlery and crockery. Aside from these pretty minor points, it was a wonderful place to stay, and somewhere we would definitely look to book again.

Mrs Lancaster July 2020

“The property was lovely overall , very well renovated and the grounds were great for exploring.”

I agree with previous comments re the lack of some basic kitchen utensils, just one very small Pyrex dish for example nowhere near big enough when catering for six, no kitchen scissors etc. only minor niggles but initially challenging. We all had a very enjoyable stay, really loved the garden and all the outdoor space, great for our puppy and young Grandson. Fairly remote which suited us , but beach, towns etc. all easily accessible by car. Would love to stay again..

Ms Rosser July 2020

“We stayed in Hudson as part as a post lockdown family holiday, rented in conjunction with Elsa, which is just next door.”

The rooms were comfortable and the layout suited us - the living room is upstairs with the kitchen/ diner downstairs. We found the hosts to be to easy to contact and helpful.

Miss Hallworth July 2020

“Excellent property and clean on arrival .”

It was a shame about lack of utensils and kitchen ware - useful to have teapot more mugs bigger saucepan water jug mirrors and bins in bedroom. Considering how nicely the property has been converted it’s disappointing these other things not provided

Mrs Redfern February 2020

“The accommodation was beautiful and is set in lovely grounds.”

I would definitely stay again. There is no games room as described so make sure you take your own games. The property would benefit from a coat rail in the entrance hall so you have somewhere to hang wets clothes rather than on the back of the nice dining chairs. Overall I really lovely place to stay.

Mrs White December 2019

“Great location for walking and relaxing.”

Lovely grounds and a warm comfortable spacious house.Bathrooms were great. It was too far really to walk to the local pub as it was dark on the way back but it is really nice. Adequate kitchen equipment, would have enhanced this if a bigger fridge & freezer had been there. Could do with replacing some of the cutlery and chopping knives as they are getting past their best. We only managed to get the TV working on the last day of the holiday and did also have difficulty working out how to use the cooker. We couldn't find instructions for either of these but worked it out in the end. We would definitely go back as the property if great, my suggestions are to improve the experience and would not stop us from returning.

- Mrs White, December 2019
Mr Lownie December 2019

“A comfortable cottage near Lancaster.”

The estate has some big building works going on, but we were not disturbed by them and had space for dog walks, comfortable bedrooms and a large sitting room. Some basics like soap for toilet basins and dishwasher tablets would have been welcome.

“Great for a grown up family”

I am not one of those people who give reviews to criticize a place, this establishment was perfect for what we wanted a family of 6 adults and our dog callie, ad we were staying here to attend my mothers funeral this place made a sad family occasion into an extremely enjoyable family break as our children are spread all over and we rarely all get together under one roof. The place is of a high quality finish with enough showers and a bath for all of us to get ready for the sad family event. Thoroughly recommend Hudson for a family with a dog you will not be disappointed

Mrs Lowry August 2019

“We booked Hudson as we wanted to be next door to our family who were in Elsa cottage.”

.with their dog..This worked so well as we could pop in and out of each others cottages!The cottage was lovely; beautifully decorated with high quality fittings! Everything was provided..The beds were comfortable and a large lounge upstairs which was suitable for our group of four adults and two children! Lovely enclosed garden!The cottages are in extensive grounds which are great..We walked every day around the grounds and the grandchildren enjoyed the open spaces..We even played rounders on the front lawn! Lovely stay in an area of outstanding natural beauty and so easy to reach Morecambe and Lancaster!Check in was easy and Andy was on hand for any problems..However we had none!Would love to return!

Mrs Davies July 2019

“Lovely holiday cottage in an absolutely stunning location.”

Wyreside Hall is a beautiful building.Stayed here as our daughter was graduating from Lancaster University which is about 6 miles away.Hope to return very soon.

Mr Robinson June 2019

“The accommodation was lovely and finished to high standards.”

The grounds of the hall were impresive and tranquil but unfortunately there was a few little things that can be easily rectified that would have made the stay more enjoyable. 1. There was a lack of kitchen utensils and crockery 2. only one bin in the whole place that was in the kitchen downnstairs. Non in bathrooms 3. Both Toilets seat downstairs were loose 4. Matching bedding in downstairs bedroom would have finished the room off nicely 5. Ironing board and iron would have been more convenient then having to find the container in the grounds to use it 6. More information on recycling facilities 7. A clock in kitchen and lounge 8. Pictures on wall in living room to make it feel more homely Just a few pointers. I have been staying in cottages over the last 10 years and I feel that would just make it that little bit nicer.

“This is a beautifully decorated and furnished cottage in an outstanding location.”

We loved exploring and went for walks every day with our dog who was in his element! Fabulous to have a decent dog secure garden. The grounds are stunning and the place will be truly amazing when the whole mansion is completed. The house was lovely and warm. The downside is that this is a seriously under equipped luxury cottage: -the kitchen was gorgeous but there was so little crockery that the dishwasher was an irrelevance as we had to wash up all the time.We had to ask for oven gloves and chopping boards.The frying pan was perfect for one person - but no good for the four of us! There were no books to read and we had no visitor information at all - where to put the bins, where the nearest shop was, walks from the door and so on. We had to find this out for ourselves. The mattress we slept on wasn't great either. We stayed for 3 days and we were fine but if we had been there for a week, the lack of oven dishes and mugs would probably have become annoying. Would definitely return to this cottage but will be enquiring as to the contents of the kitchen beforehand just in case we have to bring the kitchen sink!

Ms Stringall October 2018

“The place was lovely and the people who looked after the cottages were very friendly and helpful.”

There were leaflets about local tourist attractions which was helpful.It would have been useful to have also had some information about the place we were staying in eg the boundaries of the estate.

- Ms Stringall, October 2018
Mrs Aspinall September 2018

“It was a weekend away for my wedding (being held at Wyreside Hall itself), the bridal party stayed over the night before and the night of.”

The cottages were unlocked when we arrived so no hassle getting in. Beautiful and clean spaces, really comfortable and cosy. On the morning of my wedding each cottage we’d booked had a bottle of fizz outside from the wedding venue, beautiful touch!! I can’t fault the cottages at all, they served us perfectly!

- Mrs Aspinall, September 2018
Mr Blackley August 2018

“This cottage is huge, loads of room in the living room area and the kitchen is big too.”

Plenty of bathrooms, good shower. Owners were friendly, helpful and easy to contact with any enquiries. Really clean inside. My only slight issue was the beds, at 6ft 4ins I struggled with the length of the double bed I was sleeping in due to the frame at the top and bottom ends. Not the most comfortable beds either so my group of didn't stay the full 3 days we had planned, all went home early on the Sunday night.

Mr Palmer July 2018

“The cottage was fabulous and exceeded our expectations.”

We absolutely loved the magnificent setting and the high quality interior. This is a beautiful conversion of an old building, retaining loads of character but with modern amenities. The cottage is really spacious, especially the kitchen/diner and upstairs living room. The kitchen is gorgeous! We loved the kitchen doors opening onto the enclosed garden and this was perfect for our dog. We visited for four days for our daughter’s graduation and this was a great location for Lancaster University. We totally recommend this cottage. Here is some additional feedback for the owners - not for publishing. We can see this is a recent conversion and would like to recommend a few minor things to be added where the lack was a bit inconvenient and/or not completely in keeping with a luxury rental: A bath mat in all bathrooms. Some hand towels. Hand soap dispensers. Bedside lamps. A mirror in the bedrooms (especially for use when hair drying). An iron and ironing board. More than one key fob where guests have multiple cars. Better quality bedding and especially bedding that matches the decor (pale blue patterned duvet cover in downstairs room with purple headboard!). We hope this feedback is helpful - thank you for a wonderful stay.

About the location

LANCASTER

Morecambe 5 miles; Kendal 21 miles; Windermere 38 miles.

The historic city of Lancaster sits on edge of Morecambe Bay, with the River Lune flowing through its centre. Lancaster retains many excellent examples of handsome Georgian architecture, and with its captivating medieval castle, Ashton Memorial, and four museums, it’s an interesting place for those in search of history and tales of the past. Among the many amenities, there are two venues for live performances, the Lancaster Grand Theatre and the Dukes, as well as open-air concerts held frequently in the pretty Williamson Park during the summer season. The Forest of Bowland and The Arnside & Silverdale Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty provide visitors with lots of opportunities to take in the flora and fauna of the area, with wonderful walking and cycling ways to enjoy. There are also good road and rail links into Cumbria and beyond, meaning Lancaster is a wonderful base for also exploring the Lake District.
