  This house is beautifully presented, absolutely immaculately clean and very comfortable for 2-4 guests.

  We were let down with another place in the peaks right at the last minute, so ended up booking this the same afternoon and headed straight there. On arrival, there was a welcome pack with essentials like tea, coffee, milk sachets, biscuits, though were surprised to a bottle of wine too. The kitchen is very well stocked, even supplying things you wouldn’t expect like sandwich bags, tin foil and kitchen roll. The property is super pet friendly, with an array of pet supplies like bowls in different sizes and dog mess bags. The garden is very secure and safe for pets, and I think the artificial grass is a good call for the hire market as it’s easier to maintain for both owner and guest. There was one mess in the back garden when we arrived, but I honestly think it was a cat rather than an oversight of the owner. The care and attention of the owners comes across with a welcome manual, intricate details often missed in rentals and the additional facilities such as an air fryer, outdoor furniture and Netflix accounts on the 3 tvs! Morecambe is also pleasant with good hearted people, including the next door neighbours. There are ponies in the field next to the property, they really appreciate carrots and apples, we made very good friends with them. There is only one small thing we think could be improved and that’s the mattresses, they’re very average in quality and not in keeping with the rest of the property. You can still get a good sleep, but if they were changed for something more plush then this would be a 5* property with no flaws whatsoever. Thank you for a wonderful stay :)

  Lovely cottage, perfect little break.

  Parked in the Market Square upon arrival and spoke to the friendly owners, Jonathan and Claire for directions. The cottage is very simple to find. The location is perfect, as it is away from the hustle and bustle of the Main Street, so no traffic noise and very peaceful for a good night's sleep. The cottage is very attractive, very clean and on 3 levels. Ground floor has a nice lounge and inglenook fireplace,with an easy to use wood burner (easier than ours anyway!) and a well equipped modern kitchen. There is also a private small yard with seating, which was a bonus, as some of the neighbouring cottages appear to have no outdoor space...or just a bench at the front. Large double bedroom and large bathroom with bath and shower on the 1st level. A further large double bedroom on the 2nd floor with fantastic views to the fells. Parking was not an issue for us. We either parked by St Mary's church or up the hill beyond the Orange Tree pub. Usually spaces free up once the day trippers have left. Kirkby Lonsdale is a lovely little market town with plenty of options for food and drinks. Tip: No 9 Restaurant has a lovely sunny courtyard and between 12.00 and 15.00 has 2 'tapas' (more Korean/Thai fusion rather than Spanish) for £10, which are large and beautifully presented. Also had superb Ribeye steak from Dales butchers just down the lane. Excellent visit to Kirkby Lonsdale overall and would both recommend and return to Back Cottage.

  Such a lovely cottage well equipped and very clean and cosy.

  We have stayed in Kirkby Lonsdale a few times but this cottage has been the best so far. Excellent location everything in walking distance no problems with parking and good we could pull up outside to load and unload our belongings . Lovely inglenook fireplace with log burner but didn't use as weather good. Cottage very warm didn’t need heating as seems to hold heat. Very quiet so good nights sleep was had by all . No need to take food as shop just around corner and booths just 10 min walk so buy as you need as both open till late. The butchers is excellent selling very good sausage and bacon and the pork pies are to die for .Lots of good pubs and places to eat on doorstep so no need for taxis. Had a few meals at orange tree which is further up the hill from church . Wed is steak night rump steak with all trimming £15 excellent value and very good quality.staff very nice too. Brewery is good for drinks , make sure ask for beer card get a stamp when buy their beer. Buy 9 pints get 10th one free can use throughout stay . The Milk Parlour ice cream shop is a must best ice cream I have ever had. We had a fantastic time and will definitely back. Thank you Claire your cottage is a credit to you .

  Back Cottage is an ideal cottage for the family and the dog.

  It was just the two of us and the dog. It was a very comfortable cottage over 3 floors. More of a town house. Beautiful yorkshire stone building. The view from the top back window (bedroom) is like a painting. Rightly so a stool is in place and you can sit and daydream out the window to such a beautiful view. It is exquisite. The cottage is near Salt Pie Lane. Beautiful cobbled little lane to the main part of Kirby Lonsdale. We have visited Kirby Lonsdale a lot and will definitely go back to Back Cottage. Very clean, very comfortable, very well cared for. It has everything you need for a short break. So much to do and see in Kirby Lonsdale and this cottage is ideal for anyone who has a dog. It has a little back courtyard with a little table and chairs if weather nice you could sit out and have your breakfast although small it is ideal. Our dog loved all the walks around the countryside and beyond. Lovely comfy bed on top floor . We did not use bed in middle floor. Beautiful log fire. So we had logs on such a lovely atmosphere in the evening sitting peacefully reading my book. Highly recommended. Top class for a visit for any family and the dog. We will be returning.

  Gorgeous place not overlooked & the lake area is so nice.

  lovely & clean & attention to detail inside with nice modern touches, ornaments to make it feel homely & the biggest TV I’ve seen! Spacious, loads of storage & nice little seating area on the deck, which is enclosed for dogs. Good little welcome pack too. You can hear the traffic from the M6 & busy A road, not that it bothered me & it means it’s so easy to get to. Couple of things that I didn’t take as I assumed they would be provided is a hairdryer & washing up liquid so we missed those & my daughter was gutted we couldn’t get the led lights working around the TV unit as shown on the pictures, couldn’t find any details on how to switch these on. it’s a bit of a surprise that the park do not recycle the rubbish, but that’s on the park. All in all lovely relaxing stay in the lovely lodge & I would return for another visit.
