The Nook Holiday Cottage - Alston AONB
Comfortable home in beautiful surroundings. Really responsive and friendly host. En-suite bathrooms to each bedroom and the beds were super comfy. Great parking and charger for electric car - lovely walks nearby along the river and the horse in the field behind had just given birth to a foal so our daughter was mesmerised. Oh I forgot the hot tub - that was great too!

Laburnum Cottage, Middlestone.
Really cosy place, awesome decor and a huge bed. Would love to visit in winter to make use of the fireplaces (the weather was too good this weekend!) Hot tub was great and pizza oven fantastic. Thanks for having us!

Luxury cottage - river views, balcony and hot tub
What a wonderful place for a peaceful break away. The house was so comfortable with all the amenities needed. The hot tub was a lovely addition too! My son, who loves wildlife photography, absolutely adored the river. He spent every possible moment down there photographing Kingfishers! I would definitely recommend to anyone who loves birds and wildlife.

450 alpacas, hot tub & one bed cosy farm cottage!
The cottage was lovely and had everything we needed. The location was lovely and peaceful and the hosts were really helpful and friendly.

Old Brewery Barn, Ullswater, Lake District
Beautiful home, very spacious and plenty of amenities. felt right at home! perfect for toddlers too. Ian was great, very helpful and easily contactable.

Preston Mill Loft, the quiet couples retreat.
what an absolutely amazing place to visit, with one of the moat picturesque views of the Yorkshire Dale anyone could wish from right in the backgarden. the cottage is spotless and has everything you could want for a break away.

New 2023 mini moon luxe with hot tub copper bath
Spent 3 lovely peaceful days here! The place is spotless. Easy to check in, but quite a late one for standard check in times. Even with surrounding neighbours there was minimal disturbance.

Lakeside Barn w/ fantastic views & Hot-Tub
We arrived on the Friday for a 3 night stay. The Barn is in a beautiful place inside and out. The Hot Tub was lovely on an evening and the patio fire was great to sit around for drinks early evening watching the Sun go down. Casterton village is only a couple of miles from Kirkby Lonsdale. The village its self had a gorgeous pub 7 mins walk from the Barn which had a great range of food and served Sourdough pizza on Sunday evening after 1700hrs with a lovely warm atmosphere and open fires. There is a great taxi service and some fabulous restaurants near to the Barn. The Black Bull and the Highwayman were fabulous. (We did go to Number 9 also and it was not somewhere I could recommend, service and food really poor.) Patrick and Anika were great responsive hosts and this is a do not miss property, that offers every you need for a fabulous stay. Our little group loved it. Thank you Karen, Denise and Naomi

Luxury By The Brook
What a beautiful cottage. They have thought of everything and put a lot of love into it. Wonderful location. Great to go exploring. Lovely food at the local pub just around the corner. Easy to take our dog out for a walk down by the river. Thank you Sally and David. Best wishes James and Liz

Apple House - an exquisite bohemian retreat
What an absolute gem we found in Apple House. The pictures really don't do the whole place justice! A cosy, romantic house set in beautiful, serene surroundings. It really was the perfect location for our mini moon! Was lovely to be greeted by the chickens and Russel the dog each morning <3 We were treated to some tasty welcome gifts and the place was spotless, very comfy bed and just the most charming decor. Thank you so much Emma and Craig! We will definitely be returning with more of our family!

Stonebeck Cottage - The Perfect Country Hideaway
Wow! What a fantastic place to stay. The cottage was a perfect haven for a relaxing holiday. The scenery was breathtaking, and we spent much of the time gazing out of the window at the dramatic weather and wildlife. We wished we could have stayed longer! And will recommend it to all our friends. Many thanks Sally, Kevin and Pippa 🐾

Plum Tree Cottage - 1 bedroom
Bev’s place was a perfect spot to relax surrounded by lovey countryside. Exceptionally clean and homely.

Hexham, Northumberland fells, Walking, Relaxing
This was our second visit to Julie, It had lost none of its magic second time around.The accommodation is very clean and inviting,the outside space is lovely and relaxing...the views are stunning and all you can hear are the birds singing. We recommended staying here and will definitely be coming back in the future for a third visit. Thank you Julie for making us feel welcomed and for the tips on where to visit.

The Bothy nr Ullswater, Lake Distct
We had a fantastic week in the Lakes staying at the bothy. John and Julia are warm, friendly and thoughtful hosts and the space was perfect (and more spacious than the photos suggest). The bothy was well appointed with everything we needed and the beautiful cottage garden was an added bonus - secure for our dog and a peaceful haven to enjoy the morning/evening sunshine. Highly recommend

Cosy 2-Bedroom Cottage With Breathtaking Views
Maple Cottage was a delightful place to be for a much needed week of peace & tranquility. It was the perfect base for exploring the beautiful surrounding countryside & felt like a proper home from home. The beds were super comfy & the upstairs living space is the perfect place to chill out after a day out. With high ceilings & lots of light coming in it was spacious & airy while still having that cosy & homely feeling. The kitchen was super well equipped with modern & easy to use appliances & even had a slow cooker. There were thoughtful touches everywhere & Gladys was the perfect host. Fresh milk in the fridge, tea bags & a packet of biscuits goes a long way when you first arrive & it was very clear that Gladys has put a lot of love & care into Maple Cottage to make it feel like a proper home from home. We had a fabulous time & would recommend Bowlees Visitor Centre as the perfect base for short picturesque walks by the river to see some stunning countryside.

Beautiful Two Bedroom Cumbrian Cottage
Spent 2 nights in this beautiful spacious cottage, on our way home from Scotland. Good quality furniture and lovely decor. The garden was great for our dogs. Pretty surroundings and so many local walks! Very well equipped and we appreciated the welcome pack. Thank you

‘The Hideaway’ amidst the Nidderdale Hills
We absolutely loved The Hideaway and wished we'd been able to stay for more than one night. Louise was so friendly and helpful, and although we didn't get to meet, we had everything we wanted and quick help when we messaged her with questions about where to eat etc. The Hideaway is immaculately clean and so stylish. The bed was super comfy and the shower fantastic. The kitchen was spotless and well stocked with utensils and crockery and Louise had kindly left us fresh eggs (from her gorgeous free ranging chickens, who came to say hello as we arrived), fresh milk and bread and a bakery treat each. It's a light, bright and welcoming apartment with beautiful views over Nidderdale. We had complete privacy and even a little garden space with picnic table and fabulous view. We were delighted to wake to the gentle calls of the curlews in nearby fields and we felt truly 'on holiday'. The sad part was leaving .. we really hope to be back soon and to explore this amazing part of Yorkshire

Crofters' Cottage at North View
Excellent accommodation and the little personal touches were lovely, the dogs certainly enjoyed their personalised treats. The bed was great, the gardens great for pottering and relaxing and the quality of the bed, in particular the linen, made for an excellent nights sleep. Alison and Paul were always on hand if we needed them, but left us to get on which we like when we’re away. The pub and the deli/shop in the village are both excellent, well worth visiting. A great stay all round.

A cozy cottage in Hawes in the Yorkshire Dales
We had a great stay in Hawes, the house had everything we needed. Hawes and surrounding areas are beautiful. Diane left some suggestions of things to do and we did the waterfall in Hardraw, and the highest inn in England, both fantastic.

Luxury 4 Bedroom Cottage next door to Pub
A great house in a gem of a village 15 mins drive from beautiful Barnard Castle. Great pub for food in village, cafe and wee shop, plenty to do in Barnard Castle, Bowes Museum, and lovely walks in the area. Perfect house for two families, dogs allowed. Well kitted out, and great host. Only shame is there's no Garden. Otherwise top notch.

Stylish & Cosy Cottage Escape
Wonderful remote cottage, fully equipped with everything you would want for a stress free stay. The cottage is better than the photos show, with two snug rooms and wonderful kitchen dining area. Set in a beautiful location next to a river and with walks straight from the door.

Contemporary Country Cottage
A beautiful cottage, which is even better than the photos show. Everything you need, clean, a lovely outdoor space and comfy beds. Children’s toys, gorgeous bath and welcome wine/crisps were an added bonus. Sue was very welcoming and no problems at check in etc. We will be returning! Thank you.

Riverview Cottage- Overlooking the Tees -Superhost
The cottage was beautiful and we loved our stay there. The location was perfect for walks and exploring the area. The cottage was very well equipped with beautiful soft towels and luxury linens, the bed was very comfy too! It really was a home from home and we not hesitate to stay here again.

River Run Cottage on Tees, Barnard Castle/Dales
We had a fabulous long weekend at River Run Cottage. We loved the view of the river and bird watching from the conservatory. The whole place was comfortable and really well equipped, there was nothing we wanted that we couldn’t find, they’d thought of everything. We enjoyed trips to recently newly developed Raby Castle, Low Force and High Force and thoroughly enjoyed the stunning scenery all around, wonderful to explore an area that we didn’t know at all. We were blessed with hot and sunny weather, this meant we need to manage the heat inside the house and may be a good tip for others. We closed the door between the conservatory and the house and drew all of the curtains during the day on this south facing property. When we returned after our day out the house was lovely and cool. We’d definitely recommend River Run cottage, it’s a fabulous place to stay.
