Cottage vacation rentals in Barrow-in-Furness District

What a wonderful place for a peaceful break away. The house was so comfortable with all the amenities needed. The hot tub was a lovely addition too! My son, who loves wildlife photography, absolutely adored the river. He spent every possible moment down there photographing Kingfishers! I would definitely recommend to anyone who loves birds and wildlife.

absolute amazing, everyone was gutted to be leaving even the dog, what a stunning house and it's settings, can't wait to be booking to come back.

We all felt incredibly spoilt at tower cottage. The accommodation just had a wonderful, relaxed, comforting playful energy about it. It felt that every ornament or artifact that the cottage held had a story behind it and what a privilege for us. It was joyous. The grounds, well that was something else. Early morning Deer, the call of the chiff chaff, the fast low flight of the sparrow hawk through the woods, the soothing sound of the stream in an evening, a great crested grebe joining us for our Sunday morning dip and the joy of the marble run in the woods reminded us to freely play all weekend as a friendship group. Living next door, Ruth and mark were on hand if we needed help or advice without ever feeling like our time and space was compromised. Relaxed wholesome hosts who love where they live. Their kindness was infectious. We will definitely be back.

We arrived on the Friday for a 3 night stay. The Barn is in a beautiful place inside and out. The Hot Tub was lovely on an evening and the patio fire was great to sit around for drinks early evening watching the Sun go down. Casterton village is only a couple of miles from Kirkby Lonsdale. The village its self had a gorgeous pub 7 mins walk from the Barn which had a great range of food and served Sourdough pizza on Sunday evening after 1700hrs with a lovely warm atmosphere and open fires. There is a great taxi service and some fabulous restaurants near to the Barn. The Black Bull and the Highwayman were fabulous. (We did go to Number 9 also and it was not somewhere I could recommend, service and food really poor.) Patrick and Anika were great responsive hosts and this is a do not miss property, that offers every you need for a fabulous stay. Our little group loved it. Thank you Karen, Denise and Naomi

We had the best stay! Lisa’s home is beautiful and cosy. We felt relaxed as soon as we stepped in. Lisa was extremely thoughtful to have left us a welcome gift for us and our dogs The dogs loved the blankets provided and the extra treats The beds were so comfortable and clean. Everything was spotless Lisa was kind enough to offer an earlier check in on the day. We climbed Scaffell pike and went to Seascale Beach. It was a perfect stay with family Would hugely recommend !!

Hermitage cottage was in a beautiful situation right on the river Lune. The cottage was clean and tidy. We enjoyed the hot tub, the barbecue and the outdoor seating. We were extremely fortunate with the weather and really enjoyed our stay. Walks around the estate were lovely. It is a lovely base to explore the Forest of Bowland and surrounding areas.

Wonderful 5-night stay at Chestnut Cottage after Rob completed the Great Glen Way & West Highland Way in 6 days! @freemanwalking on YouTube 😀 The hot tub was a real treat for soothing sore muscles. Stunning bay views made the cottage the perfect place to relax. The bed was super comfy, and we loved the little extra touches like the soft robes and complimentary tea, coffee, and milk. Just a short, scenic walk along the promenade to the village for supplies. The weather wasn’t the best, but the cosy cottage more than made up for it. Highly recommend! Thank you Gemma

Beautiful place and well appointed and to a very good standard. It’s located very close to charming town of Longridge. We went to Stydd Gardens which was just 15 mins away and stunning. Very much recommended. Thank you

We arrived at Hylands for our stay at La’al cottage. It was exactly as you can see in the pictures a true reflection. The grounds are absolutely stunning private and we enjoyed a fire pit which was spectacular listening to birds and owls. Cottage is cosy and welcoming and we had a great stay thank you Emma and Craig. We loved it and will be back

The cottage is absolutely lovely! Just be aware the access is through a narrow arch, we got through in a big car but it was a squeeze. The cottage is so comfortable and clean too. The kitchen is fully equipped and the cottage has everything you could need! Gaz was really responsive and it was easy to get into the cottage. Loads to do in Kendal and food and drinks minutes away!

We had a great time at this lovely, comfortable, characterful house. We enjoyed the sound of the river flowing by as we ate and enjoyed drinks in the garden. The house was spotless, the beds were very comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. It is located in a beautiful village with a shop and traditional pub serving lovely food. Great dog walks right from the door. We would love to return.

I found some things that I am not comfortable such as in the bathroom basin there is no mixer and the basin have no sign, it’s broken . Also, toilet flusher is not working sometimes. It looks like a very old type . Also, the double bed mattress is very soft. I didn’t feel comfortable sleeping. Otherwise, everything fine. Also, It is a little bit expensive compare to other cottage . Thank you

A real gem. It’s better than the photos show. Full of character yet modern standards and amenities. Quality furnishings and kitchen equipment. Excellent mattress, soft, comfortable sheets and towels. So lovely that it’s family owned from someone born and still living in the area. Everything has been thought through so well equipped. Can’t wait to come back. We loved every minute of our stay. It’s in our top 5 of places we’ve stayed in. Thank you

Zoe was great in communicating and the property is indeed a rare find. The garden was unique and our Labrador loved it.

This place is really cosy. A lovely log burner warm and tidy. Really nice fittings and fixtures clearly done with thought. Really decent hot water and heating. Beds were very comfy. Kitchen really well equipped. The local shop is basic but cheery and good opening hours. Used it for tea, coffee, milk, bread etc and they do cash back. The local chippy/Chinese take away was excellent. We couldn’t get into the pub to eat at late notice sadly so may need to hook well in advance if that’s your plan. We based ourselves here to do the costal rail route and it was super convenient for the railway. The parking was as advertised. The cottage itself is on the road through flookburgh, so there was a bit of traffic noise at the front bedroom, but really not that much as it’s not a big busy road by any means. There were bowls for the dog to make him feel welcome too.

Absolutely delightful place to stay. Lots of walks, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Our dog loved the large, enclosed garden. It was also lovely and relaxing for us, and really private. Will definitely return.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location. Great to have a view of Coniston Lake. Cottage was extremely comfortable and homely & had everything needed for our stay. Martin’s instructions to find and access the cottage were very comprehensive which really helped. Martin also provided lots of information on places to eat and visit and responded well to any issues. Coniston is an ideal location to access the Lakes and would recommend the area and Martin’s cottage to others. Would love to return one day.

Just loved this cottage, its in a great location, no need to go out in your car as there is plently to do nearby. The cottage is very clean and nicely done out. It is well equipped, with a nice little hamper box on arrival. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. Five stars from us.

The property is perfect for a break in the Lake District! There is everything you need for a comfortable stay amenities wise - the bed is comfortable and spacious, and there is a nice garden at the back to sit in and enjoy the view. The location is perfect - picturesque views across the hills and valley from the bedroom window with forests surrounding the broader area. The property is hidden away along countryside roads with minimal cars passing through - so perfect for some peace and quiet in nature - however only a short drive to local shops and not far from Ambleside, lake Windermere and Grasmere so it is great as a base to explore the main attractions of the Lake District, while also recharging away from the business of the towns. Glen is a fantastic host who welcomed us very nicely and offered lots of advice on things to do in the area and more. He was very friendly and made us us feel very welcome. We recommend staying here very much and hope to return. Thanks Glen!

Booked a couple of nights here with our whippets. A good size and the bed was really fantastic; large and very comfortable. I do like a dark bedroom, and the thing I would add is that black out blinds or curtains would have been the icing on the cake for me. really great little cottage.

Just what the doctor ordered, absolutely beautiful and so relaxing, he even made us fresh homemade bread the views from the windows are breathtaking, honestly it was a pleasure we will be back nice and clean just perfect. Thank-you Andrew it was a pleasure.

Ash Barn was the most beautiful place to stay for our mid week walking trip. Simon’s place had everything you could possibly need and more. It truely felt like a home away from home. I am sure we will return very soon :)

Really cosy cottage, just what you want when staying in the lakes. Was a warm cottage but had blankets incase your cold. Really comfy beds. Comfy sofas. Good tv and board games. Salt & pepper, tea & coffee and personalised handmade cookies - thank you. We had 2 babies and found it easy being there with a cot and highchair provided. Would stay again and recommend. Fae & family.

We loved staying in the cottage! It was so convenient and close to everything whilst also being nice and tucked away. Tom was very helpful with reccomendations due to the weather conditions and we had the best time! The shower was amazing which is something you don’t usually find so we were very happy after a long day of walking! We would definitely stay again 😁
