Guests say
Guests consistently praise this cottage for its immaculate cleanliness, comfortable furnishings, and peaceful rural setting, ideal for dog owners and those seeking a relaxing break. The well-equipped kitchen, enclosed garden, and friendly staff are frequently highlighted, with many guests returning for repeat stays. The on-site pub and proximity to scenic walks add to the appeal. While a few minor issues such as mattress comfort and occasional parking difficulties are mentioned, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, making it a highly recommended choice for couples, families, and pet owners.
The vast majority of reviews commend the property for being spotlessly clean, with several guests noting the exceptional standards maintained by the cleaning team. Only one review reported an issue with cleanliness, which was promptly addressed by the owner.
The location is described as quiet, peaceful, and ideal for dog walks, with easy access to local attractions, farm shops, and the Forest of Bowland. Some guests mention the need for a car and occasional parking challenges due to the busy pub, but overall the setting is highly valued.
Guests frequently mention comfortable beds, sofas, and a warm, cosy atmosphere. The enclosed garden is appreciated by dog owners. A few guests noted issues with mattress comfort and suggested a larger bed, but these are exceptions rather than the rule.
The cottage is praised for being well-equipped, especially the kitchen, and for having everything needed for a self-catering stay. Facilities such as the enclosed garden, smart TV, and excellent shower are highlighted. Minor maintenance issues (e.g., faded microwave numbers) are mentioned but do not detract significantly from the overall experience.
Several guests appreciated thoughtful touches such as dog beds, bowls, and treats for pets, as well as welcome biscuits. It should be noted that these gifts are not guaranteed for every stay. Staff communication and responsiveness are also highly praised.

Pub was vefy busy and on 3 ocassions we were unable to park after going out, this was probably the most frustrating thing about our stay, we understand that friends and relatives like to gather after funerals, it was just so busy and not being able to park was frustrating. So this is not somewhere we would not choose to stay again.
