  A nice place to stay with everything we needed, well positioned too.

  This was first time we'd gone anywhere with our dog and he was made welcome. I would recommend it as a nice enough place to stay without a dog too! All I'd question is that the living room is upstairs and kitchen downstairs which makes it difficult to persuade a dog to go back downstairs to sleep if you've been watching TV upstairs together. Hence ours slept upstairs in the living room. We had covers in case he went on the sofas. But he could nudge open our bedroom door easily so we had some disturbed nights. I did find the lounging chair very comfy to sleep on during those nights. On windy nights the light kept going on outside which shone into the living room spooking the dog. There's a washing machine but you need to check the owners aren't already using it. It's a bit ancient and is used a lot. Lovely owners though. Helpful. Chatty. Generous. Thoughtful. I'd go back, but without the pooch.

  Flat extremely clean and perfect for two but has some slight quirks which need sorting out.

  The blinds in the bedroom and the lounge don’t fit the windows. They end about 4 inches from the bottom. In the bedroom the curtains are so flimsy that they too don’t do their work. This means that you can see into the bedroom and right onto the bed from the street outside even with the curtains closed. It’s the same in the lounge but that’s not as worrying. There is no room on the other side of the bed for a bedside table and the shelf provided was hanging off the wall. We did inform the owner/landlord/caretaker who took it away, leaving us with no shelf. The shower is quite old and could do with replacing and the shower head and holder don’t match so it’s tricky to adjust the position of the shower head. We had lovely welcome gifts which we really appreciated but I’d prefer money to be spent on the things mentioned above.

  We enjoyed our stay over Christmas but would have liked to be able to turn the heating temperature up or down ourselves.

  We would have stayed in the hot tub longer if it was warmer but it cooled down very quickly. We had to clean the drawers and hoover the main bedroom as it was dirty/hairy. We had to wash the bedding in the main bedroom as it smelt stale/smokey. The main bedroom quilt has a stain of some kind on it. The wardrobe downstairs in the hallway had a drawer which was full of slippers/flip flops/clothing so was not able to use it. When we cleaned the main room floor we found under the table was very dirty and under the settee when we angled it for watching tv. The hoover did not keep its charge to be able to hoover one room, we had to charge it continuously which is not good enough when taking pets or in general. We still enjoyed our stay and it is in a lovely setting but just wanted to offer constructive advice.

  We spent a lovely long weekend at Hollowgill Barn in December 2022.

  Incredible doesn't begin to describe it. The open plan upper floor is perfect for spending time together, with no one having to seclude themselves from the rest of the group to cook. Speaking of cooking - the kitchen is incredibly well stocked. Anything one could imagine needing is right there, and then some. The bedrooms are lovely, with great views out over the fields again, the beds are incredibly comfortable, the showers great. It is lovely waking up surrounded by the sheep in the fields, and you only have to step out of your door to start a great walk through the Cumbrian countryside. With Sedbergh only being a 10 minutes drive away for your shopping, you'll not want for anything. There's really we can fault about our stay at Hollowgill Barn, you definitely won't regret booking.

  Immaculate, comfortable and beautifully equipped property with everything we possibly could have needed, and a very pretty view over the pond outside. Lovely and peaceful location while in easy reach of lots of places, and the whole area is very dog friendly including the town centre of Bury St Edmunds. We chose this property particularly for its accessibility and being all on one floor as both of us are independently mobile but have mobility issues, and it was ideal. Spacious with easy parking, including directly outside the door. We particularly enjoyed the wood burner on cooler evenings and the hot tub, and appreciated the thoughtful list of suggested local places to eat that was sent by the host before we arrived. One of the most relaxing holidays we've had in a while.
