  What a wonderful relaxing stay which was what we needed. Everything had been provided and our hosts Kath & Dave were very obliging and left milk, eggs from their own free range hens, which was very nice of them. The cottage was in a very quiet place well laid out and comfortable. We will be back again in 2025. A great thanks to Kath and Dave for a lovely stay.

  The property is well equipped with everything that you need and is immaculate throughout. The owners are on hand if you should need them and are so very friendly, with nothing being too much trouble. The property is located in a very peaceful area with superb views and lovely walks and cycle routes. Areas of interest are located within a short drive away such as the lake district and Bowland area of outstanding natural beauty. This is a real gem of a place with privacy guaranteed. We've already booked to return next year. Thanks for a lovely stay. Lesley & Steve

• "The description on the website did not make clear the layout of the facility."

  We found it quite strange to walk straight into the bedroom, and also the fact the wet room/bathroom was located at the other end of the property from the bedroom, meaning you had to go through the kitchen to get to the bathroom. There was very little storage space for clothes etc due to the fact that every drawer seemed full of games etc, we felt the quality of the bedding was not good, and there was not enough room in the kitchen cupboards to store food. Only one toilet roll supplied, and we had to ask for extra, no soap in the bathroom, and the kitchen taps were loose and dirty. To finish on a high note the weather was good, and the hot tub enjoyed.

  Cath and Dave are lovely people, always there when you need them, but not breating down your neck. The cottage is well equiped and we found the hot tub a god send, when our muscles were aching, and it was lovely to lay back in the warm water on dark cloudless nights, and look at the stars. I have already recommended this property, and will gladly look into booking again, next time we are in the area

  The cottage was spacious and comfortable and we hope to return. Fantastic wet room! The location is great - countryside but you don't have to negotiate extremely narrow lanes to get there. Also, it turned out to be ideally situated for our birdwatching hobby, being close to various river estuaries, the coast and nature reserves.

  Owners live across the road in this pretty little hamlet of a few houses, so close enough to assist and offer local info etc but still plenty of privacy to enjoy sitting out and looking across the field. Luxurious wetroom, large, comfortable bed and very nice to have comfortable dining chairs at the table.

• "The accommodation is beautiful and well cared for."

  From the moment you get there you feel on holiday as it's so restful and peaceful. The garden furniture is located near to a hot tub where you can enjoy the view. The owner's sometimes have their horses grazing there, or their sheep. But even if the field is empty you might you may catch a glimpse of a hard or rabbit, or watch the bird life. The owner's are lovely people, very helpful and have lots of knowledge of the area. They can give you advice on good walking routes and many other things. They are very approachable and helpful and have supplied the cottage with many board games and books for wetter days. We have been four or five times and will go back again as soon as it's possible. It's a great place to unwind.

• "The Old Byre at Deekswood is a very comfortable and spacious 1 bedroom holiday cottage, converted as the title suggests from an old farm building."

  The cottage is in a country area, with Zwartble sheep in the field beside the cottage and we enjoyed watching the swallows - we found the area quiet and peaceful, with the occasional sound of chickens, sheep and cows in the background. The small town of Knott End is about 4 miles away and from there you can get to Fleetwood by a 35 passenger ferry. The roads in that part of Lancashire aren't great so we did a lot of walking - Morecambe Bay is about 1 mile away as is the Lancashire Coastal Way. The cottage was perfect for what we wanted - the owners were friendly and accommodating and we had a comfortable week away with enough of interest around us for the week to pass agreeably.

  We chose this cottage as I had broke my ankle and was not fully mobile. This cottage was brilliant for me getting around on crutches or the wheelchair. Also the surrounding areas are relatively flat. We were able to get out and about with the aid of my wheelchair and walked from Pilling to Blackpool pleasure Beach in sections over the week. The cottage was very quiet and you immediately began to unwind when you arrived. Would certainly recommend.

  The location was ideal for the break we needed. Deekswood is a beautifully and tastefully converted barn which gave us everything we needed for a relaxed week of reading, walking (country lanes and public footpaths in the surrounding area). The 'green' technology was very impressive and the owners, Kath and Dave couldn't have been more welcoming, friendly and helpful. Fresh laid eggs from the coop in the drive were absolutely delicious and we enjoyed the friendly sheep and the horses in the field behind the barn. We have stayed in many self-catering properties over the years and Deekswood has to be top of our list on all counts! We fully intend to return as soon as we can!
