What our customers say about their holidays

Jonathan - Verified booking

We were in the area earlier than the 4pm check in and we called Danielle to see if we could arrive a little bit early, She checked with the cleaner and then called us back to say it was ready early for us, which was a nice start to our break.

When we arrived we were greeted by Danielle and her two lovely dogs and she told us about the hot tub, walks in the area and places to eat nearby, all extremely helpful. The cottage was spotless! You could see it had been deep cleaned ready for us, we found a lovely bottle of prosecco and some home made rocky road brownies waiting for us in the kitchen which was a nice touch by the owners. The cottage was warm, cosy and right next to the river Esk. The hot tub was huge and great to relax in on a night with a glass of bubbles ! We had a newly built viewing area down some steps over looking the river, this would be lovely on a warm morning/evening to sit and watch the wild life. Bed was very comfortable and plenty of wardrobe space, could have done with more hangers in the wardrobe and one of the roller blinds was broken, no pully to open/shut the blind. Bathroom was light and airy and has a very good shower, plenty of towels (even though we took our own too), the shower glass door is very loose and can open so water can go on the floor, this needs attention. Kitchen was a great size and had plenty of cupboards but few glasses, only 1 wine glass and no prosecco glasses. It has two plastic glasses for out side but not great to drink out of while chilling in the living room, and needs a blind at the front door window. Outside area was relaxing and plenty of wood and matches for the chimenea, it does have a small two seater wicker sofa but the cushions had been left out so they were wet and mouldy, not sure why these weren't brought into the cottage ? so we couldn't use that seating area. We are been a little picky with these issues but they are so small and could be easily remedied to make the cottage even better than it is, we will definitely be going back, such a relaxing spot away from everything, just what's needed if you want a chilled out break!

Wow, what can i say!

Exceptional doesn't begin to say enough about this beautiful cottage and surroundings. My husband and i went for 4 nights with our 2 excited Huskies, and were immediately welcomed by the hosts. The pictures do not do this cottage justice as it has been updated. The minute we walked in we felt at home. The wonderful finer details to the cottage were stunning and i couldn't hide my amazement to the wonderful, friendly hosts. It literally has everything you could ask for. From 2 enormous sofas, the extremely comfortable kingsize bed, the wonderful shower with the largest showerhead i have ever seen! It even has a small utility/ doggy room with extra sink, toilet, husky fridge and separate large freezer. The outside seating area has a wonderful view of the manicured gardens and beyond with a bbq and wood burner for us to use. The lovely walks surrounding the property exhausted our 2 huskies and my husband! There were 3 pubs within 5 minutes drive. I can personally recommend "the boars head" which had a wonderful outside seating area. If you are contemplating this cottage. Please dont hesitate, you will not be disappointed. Quite frankly, i think this property is undervalued. Thanks again Mark, Mark and Kieran who were the best hosts imaginable. We are already planning to go again soon.

Our stay at Carwinley Mill House Cottage was absolutely wonderful, and we were greeted with a very warm welcome by the owners, then shown around as soon as we arrived.

The cottage had recently been refurbished and we were completely taken aback by how lovely it looked, by the work that had been done to it, and it's history. It was clean, roomy, and absolutely gorgeous! There was plenty of space for two, and outside, the cottage's position created a perfect sun trap at the top sitting area, which was great for relaxing, plus jacuzzi sessions were made even more enjoyable by the nature that was hiding in and around the trees, and the sound of the river. The second sitting area was a few steps below and opened up onto a lovely decked balcony, overhanging the river. It really couldn't get more tranquil. Longtown is perfect for travelling to Scotland, the Lakes, the border, or exploring further south, and my husband and I stayed at Carwinley Mill House Cottage for a week, which for us, wasn't enough, but we had to come home (although we honestly didn't want to leave!) We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and we will be booking to stay again. Danielle, Jed, Trevor and Danielle's mum were all so warm and friendly, it really topped off our stay. A huge thank you to you all! We'll be back.

Beautiful cosy little cottage down a quiet country lane in an ideal location for exploring the surrounding pretty towns of Nantwich, Audlem and further afield.

We visited in November and the cottage was warm and comfortable, with a smart TV and little electric fire for those rainy afternoons. The kitchen is well appointed and modern with a dishwasher. The memory foam bed was comfortable and the rainfall shower a real highlight. The garden is extensive and off-road parking right outside the cottage. We visited with our dog and enjoyed plenty of local walks, including down the back lanes to the local garden center, there was also a full under-counter freezer for her raw food and a utility room with washing machine, wine cooler and dog bowls. The only improvement I could think of would be a set of sharp knives rather than serrated ones in the kitchen. Definitely follow the arrival instructions after booking and approach from the north, the approach from the south of the lane requires crossing a ford and using a significantly muddy road. Overall a cosy little bolt hole.

Lovely peaceful surroundings, hot tub was good when it worked properly.

WiFi was very poor and worked intermittently. Some maintenance required in the grounds as the trees and bushes are taken over with the banister not available for the full duration of the steep steps down to the decked area at waterside due to brambles and nettles over growing. I would recommend to the owner the installation of some netting at the doors with a magnetic closure in middle, this would allow the freedom of having the French doors open without the worry of allowing too many flies inside, as it is nice to allow the fresh air in. The couch in the livingroom lacks a little support so when you wish to relax inside in the evening it can be difficult without constantly moving cushions around to assist. Although there is room for improvement, this is a lovely place that is only a short drive from the motorway but far away enough away for peace and quiet.
