We just got back from a three night stay at courtyard cottage and it was lovely. The cottage is just gorgeous and thoughtfully decorated. It's very cosy and a brilliant location, close to all the shops and pubs aswell as lots of walks. We love to do some big walks when we visit the lakes and this is the perfect location for that. The owners were so helpful as we had a bit of a struggle finding the place when we first arrived and they were more than happy to help.

We stayed for a week just as lockdown had lifted. The cottage is lovely. It is stylishly decorated and was spotlessly clean. It is a level above others that we have stayed at before. Great location in the centre of the village. Close to bars and restaurants (when they open fully again) and a short walk to the beautiful local countryside. We would highly recommend the Courtyard Cottage (even the neighbours were lovely)

We loved our time at the cottage, a minute or 2 from some great places to eat, The Orange Tree was our fave, the Chinese takeaway on the corner was perfect for our late arrival when no one else was serving A beautiful walk to Ruskins view and the Radical Steps to the River Lune. Ingleton Waterfalls is definitely worth a visit and worth paying the parking price everywhere is dog friendly, Alfie our schnauzer loved it. It would be great to see a visitor book at the cottage, it really helps new guests find their way around and the best walks, eateries, recommendations etc. One question we had was whether there is any recycling facility? Thanks KB, we'll be back ??

Convenient, well equipped base for both the town and the region.. Age related mobility needed for the stairs.

This cottage is absolutely gorgeous we loved the location and how close it was to all the town's amenities and also a short walk to the waterside/pebble beach. We loved the cottage's quirkiness with the stairs to different levels and the cosy rooms. The finish was excellent and to a high standard and it was very well equipped with everything you need. The electric blinds for the Velux windows in the roof were the best now i want some for my house. We really did not want to leave and will definitely be back soon. Thanks for an amazing stay.

A really nice cottage which is very centrally located just yards from restaurants and pubs.. The cottage is just minutes away from river walks and the local supermarket

This cottage is beautiful.. It feels more like a boutique holiday home. The cottage was immaculate on arrival. It was clean and very well presented. There are so many little details that make this a wonderful place to stay. The kitchen is really well equipped with lovely crockery, the living room was really relaxing, great lighting and a good quality Smart TV, the dining room was brilliantly designed and I loved the lighting.The bedrooms were beautifully presented with really comfy beds and the bathroom had a great shower. The location was perfect, tucked away in the middle of Kirkby Lonsdale, which is a lovely place to stay. I could hear a bit from the restaurant nearby but it wasn't really a problem, considering the location it was really peaceful and also fantastic to be able to bring my dog with me. This place is a wonderful place to stay, I loved my time there and would love to return.

Lovely cottage situated right within the heart of Kirkby Lonsdale, location was fantastic, we had a lovely holiday there and would definitely return, the only small negatives is the parking you can’t access the cottage with a car although the car parks not far away it’s costly to park for the week and unloading the car on arrival and packing up when leaving was a bit of a annoyance to be fair this was mentioned when booking the cottage, also no double glazing which is obviously to fit in with the style of the building (which is lovely) so at times it could be a bit noisy, this aside we had a lovely holiday..

Mr Gittins

Great location for town centre.. Quiet at night. Very comfortable for two people. Maybe a little small for four adults

Mrs Newsome

Brilliant cottage right in the heart of Kirkby Lonsdale.. Location was excellent with a car park near by where we could pay for a long stay. Furnishings and general interior design was spot on .Bathroom a little dated but shower was great so no complaints. Dog friendly and not far for a walk along the river to Devils Bridge. Kitchen had everything you need including poo bags for dogs and (nappy bags for babies if you needed them. ) The cottage was spotlessly clean . We did not find it noisy -as some reviews- and all in all it was a great experience and we would recommend it as a great place to stay.

First of all the cottage is immaculate.. The furniture & fittings are brand new and the bedding is of a very high standard. However the outside door to the first floor, which is at the top of the external stairs as shown on the photograph is immediately adjacent to the front door and only exit/entrance to the next door cottage. You can just see this in the photograph however this is not at all clear from the property description. The living room for the cottage is on the first floor and when the occupants next door were coming & going they had to 'slam' their door resulting in a load bang which could be heard throughout the cottage. This quickly becomes irritating. The walls of the cottages are also thin and it is possible to hear the next door neighbours talking, watching TV etc. Much worse though they had 2 yappy dogs which were left alone and barked constantly at their front door on our first evening. This was not at all pleasant for us trying to have a relaxing night in. To be fair to our neighbours they did make alternative arrangements for the dogs after being spoken to however the point is that the walls are thin and external noises can be heard

Miss Badley

Lovely quaint cottage, beautiful decoration which is what attracted me.. Really well equipped, the small kitchen had everything and more I'd expect from a larger kitchen, loved the dining room decor too - worth trekking up a flight of stairs for! Lounge sofa fab and comfy too! Main bedroom very relaxing and bright. Great to be in such a lovely market town. To be honest the noise of the Indian restaurant and bakers (which I hadn't appreciated would be SO close) meant that there was sometimes noise til midnight and then rattling trollies at 6am. I understand why it hasn't been made clear and I guess it should be obvious being in the centre of town, my naivety. It's great that such a beautiful cottage allows dogs but it was tricky as I had no where to let the dog out for a wee first and last thing, the park nearby was no dogs so it meant a trek down to the river. Maybe make it clear where dogs can go then at least you are informed before booking. Minor tips, a couple more towels and more hooks especially in bathroom, struggled drying them out. Fridge not great, at least rehang the door the other way (they are designed to swap) it was a pain, I needed more freezer space but realise it wasn't in the list. Carpet was so lovely and luxurious everywhere, made me want to have ours redone at home... Except the bedroom which was a shame, but I suspect its because of the cute windows.... But I'm nit-picking, without a dog I'd return, I want a green velvet sofa for Christmas

Mrs Convery

Great little cottage, in an excellent location for exploring Kirkby Lonsdale and surrounding areas.. Parking is in the public carparks a very short walk away but you can unload at the top of the lane in the library car park if necessary. Comfortable and homely, with nice touches and friendly neighbours! Dog friendly (first floors only) as is the village. Lovely walk through the church grounds to Ruskin's View. We would recommend the Indian takeaway and the Orange Tree for good food with vegetarian options. We will definitely be back.

Mr Wilkinson

The cottage was lovely, charming, well presented and in a nice position.. The problem was the neighbouring take away, visible from the back of the cottage. The occupants seemed to begin a party every night late on till 6am the following morning with plenty of talking, noise and music. We could hear this all clearly in the bedrooms and some of our party could not get to sleep until the disturbance ceased. This should be taken up with the local council as a noise nuisance. Other than this the cottage itself and location was a delight.

The cottage was absolutely beautiful.. Perfectly appointed and really well situated. The town was really lovely with plenty to do and lots of nice walks.
