“We have had a fantastic time in the Lake District.”

The cottage was beautifully decorated throughout and extremely clean and fully equipped for our family. The host was very welcoming and available anytime to answer our questions. The children absolutely loved waking up to the sheep in the opposite field. A lovely relaxing break making fond memories for our family. We can’t wait to return. If you’re looking for a cottage full of character, I would fully recommend staying here.

“Really enjoyed the stay.”

Cottage is very lovely, beautifully decorated and really cosy with the fire on. Only one thing I would probably comment on is it maybe needs to be clearer on the description that this is a working farm which perhaps wasn't completely clear. The amount of vans, quad bikes moving around was more than expected and wasn't quite the peaceful romantic hot tub break we'd perhaps envisaged, especially when you have to walk through them in your robe to get to the hot tub! which did put us off going a couple of times. That said a small thing and did not spoil our stay.

“Me and my boyfriend enjoyed a lovely stay at Longlands farm cottage.”

The cottage itself is so cosy and spacious. We were very pleased that there was all kinds of pots, pans, cutlery and utensils for us to cook some food during our stay. There are only the slightest changes needed. The can opener provided doesn’t really work, we had some difficulty using it, this may need fixing or replacing. Also, whilst a lot of seasoning and condiments were provided there was no pepper in the pepper shaker so we did have to purchase this. There could also be some hand soap put in the bathroom, there was only one soap and that was in the kitchen. There was also some difficultly using the toaster, it’s not the best toaster. We hadn’t used one like it before and did end up burning our toast a lot. As said these are only minor issues, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we’re grateful for the bottle of Prosecco and cartmel sticky toffee pudding that awaited us on our arrival. The Cartmel sticky toffee pudding is a must-try, we actually bought more during our stay as we loved it so much! The bedrooms are lovely and cosy with very comfy beds and the bathroom was clean and modern. The location of the cottage is great, with beautiful surroundings. The view from the hot tub in the private garden is incredible! Cartmel is only a 5 minute drive/ 20 minute walk away and the seaside town grange-over-sands is only a 10-15 minute drive. From grange-over-sands there are takeaways you can order for collection and delivery. We ordered a delivery from Akhi Indian restaurant and that was great. I’ve already recommended the cottage to family and friends, it is a great place for a long stay, we also noticed for potentially shorter stays there are the Longlands retreats glamping pods which also have incredible views of the surroundings.

“Longlands Farm House was absolutely beautiful, we booked it for my wife’s birthday with 4 other friends, and we loved it.”

The house is beautiful, and finished to the highest standard. The kitchen was fully equipped with the very best equipment, and all the essentials provided. Louise and her Husband were so helpful, nothing was a hassle for them. The location is perfect for the surrounding area, and easy to find and set in the most beautiful location. I really can’t recommend the house enough, we’d certainly stay again if we are in the area.

“What a gorgeous holiday cottage!”

Luxury furnishings and beautiful decor it is a really comfortable, cosy cottage to relax in - a real home away from home. It’s a peaceful location and Cartmel which is really close by has some great restaurants and you’re not far from Lake Windermere either. Louise the owner was really friendly and helpful and this really is a lovely holiday cottage with lots of thoughtful touches.

“Lovely, well appointed, comfortable cottage.”

friendly, helpful owner. Could only be improved by inclusion of a Teapot in kitchen and some shelving in bathroom. Great location, good pubs and very good takeaway nearby(Flounders) with added bonus of a racecourse in middle of the town! Excellent overall and definitely worth a visit. Bob Rogers
