• "A lovely stay in Lune Cottage."

  It's a really cosy and warm property. The log burner was out of action when we stayed but this was communicated to us in advance and in the end we didn't miss it as the property was nice and warm. The kitchen was a good size and well equipped for cooking. No parking but obviously we knew that and we just pulled up and dropped everything off very quickly and then parked in the car park - a week cost just over 41 pounds. The only thing I would say is that the property is not that easy to find via sat nav so make sure you locate it on a map before you set off and contact the owners if you're not 100% sure. I would definitely stay here again if in the area.

• "Well kept cottage and we had a great holiday - we love Kirkby Lonsdale Good well equipped kitchen and v good location in the town."

  Comfortable beds. Once we had worked out how to turn up the heating a bit it was cozy. Living room smelt a bit of dog but I suppose that is inevitable if you allow dogs. Main issue is that there is no log burner. Well it is there a log burner but it is not in use. Had a large chain around it with a big red sign saying do not use. Pretty off putting and unfriendly! The listing still advertises that there is an open fire and a starter pack for the fire. We were told a few weeks before we went. No real apology or explanation. We booked this cottage over another cheaper one as it had a log burner. Disappointing.

• "The cottage is beautifully decorated and in an excellent location."

  It's very clean and very well-equipped, but I would not say particularly comfortable. The mattresses were comfortable, but the pillows were the thinest I have ever had in a cottage. I suspect they were very old and synthetic so they had lost all volume. Also the duvet was the same - synthetic and thin. The towels were also very thin. It was such a shame as everything else is of a very, very high standard - it would not cost much to upgrade the bedding to make this a perfect cottage. Would I go back to the cottage - absolutely - please don't let this review dissuade you because the cottage is amazing - but I would take my own pillows!

• "Lovely clean cottage with everything needed supplied in a lovely village, plenty to do nearby, lots of local pubs/eateries within walking distance."

  Only downside is need a better shower screen to stop water from going on the bathroom floor.

• "The cottage was very well equipped, quiet & comfortable."

  It was well located in Kirkby for shop & restaurants. The parking wasn’t a problem, we just bought a weekly ticket for the New Road car park. There was ample space near the property to unload / load the car when arriving & departing. Kirkby is well located for visiting the Lakes & the Dales. The only slight observation is that the TV is old & would benefit from a newer smart tv. We had a wonderful stay & would not hesitate in returning to Lune Cottage.

• "Overall Lune Cottage is a lovely, homely place to stay."

  It has pretty much everything you need in a holiday cottage, is in a handy location for accessing all the shops and pubs of Kirkby Lonsdale and is a comfortable and welcoming property. Particularly appreciated was the amount of little extras on arrival - not just a pint of milk - but plenty of cleaning products, kitchen towels, cooking essentials etc plus a bottle of wine to compensate for one of the bedroom blinds not working which was unnecessary as it actually did but still much appreciated! The beds are also very comfortable. There are only a few little niggles: bathroom towels were provided but could do with replacing as they weren't of a great quality and have had plenty of use (would have preferred to have brought our own). Whilst the shower itself was fine, it's over a corner bath with a short folding screen and so it's really difficult not to flood the bathroom floor as the water goes everywhere. It also looks a bit dated with sealant slathered everywhere to try and stop it leaking. Given the property is not really suitable for very young or very old guests I think it's time to ditch the bath and put in a proper walk-in shower, which would greatly enhance the guest experience. And at the same time sort out the noisy bathroom door as it's so creaky to close that it's impossible to use the toilet quietly at night or first thing without waking everyone up. Overall though it has lots going for it and is a value for money option in a popular and pretty village and would definitely recommend it as a place to have a relaxing and enjoyable holiday. P.s. we had no problems finding a free parking space in the residential crescent located just behind the property every day, worth bearing in mind.

  It was very comfortable and well equipped. One small thing the blinds in the top bedroom didn't close but my daughter had a sleep mask so it wasn't a problem for her! We loved KL...and all the lovely walks with the dogs. thanks for our lovely gift voucher..it was a very kind gesture and the brewery was lovely.

  A great time was had by all. The cottage is conveniently located only a couple of minutes walk from the centre of Kirkby Lonsdale with it’s lovely pubs, restaurants and shops. Yet it’s quiet and close also to the river and many picturesque walks. The owners have thought of absolutely everything when furnishing the cottage and have created a cosy, very well equipped, relaxing holiday home. We wished we could have stayed longer!

• "The cottage was perfect!"

  Lovely spacious kitchen with everything you needed to prepare a family meal, quick snack or even bake. The front room was cosy and had a great selection of dvd's and games including dominoes and playing cards. I was happy to use the washing machine so I didn't have a pile of washing to do when I got home (washing tablets were provided). The small courtyard was a lovely place to sit and have a cuppa and read or listen to the sounds of nature. The bedrooms were comfortable and cosy, beds very comfortable and sheets and duvet covers soft to the touch. Great natural light comes into the property from in all rooms. Clear instructions on how to use and find everything. Wifi info easy to find in more than one place. I stayed with my husband and two children (6 and 9 years old). The children loved the cottage and did not want to leave! We even had my niece and brother over for dinner. It felt like were were at home. Power shower in the bathroom was nice and my children loved the bath. Enough essentials such as toilet roll and hand wash, tea, coffee and sugar. Great property, great host, excellent location no complaints. Shops less than 5 mins walk. Can't wait to visit again, maybe for longer next time. We had to take our recycling with us but that was fine, as we dropped it off at the recycling location close to the local supermarket, which was where we were picking up our bus anyway. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed my stay with my family. My only niece lives 5 mins walk from the cottage, such a convenient location to local businesses, tourist info, pubs, tranquil walks, local historic buildings and sights. I have to stop, I could go on and on. My best get away in a long time!

  The property was very clean and had all the facilities we needed with the advantage of being in the heart of the village so walking distance to all pubs and cafe's including a favourite place for breakfast, "Botanica". Whilst there is no parking at the property, its easy to purchase a 7 day permit for one of the car parks in the centre, with the benefit that you can also use at various other locations in South Lakeland (check PayByPhone app). The walks nearby are excellent with ample opportunities for dogs to be off lead, just check livestock first. We look forward to returning next year, fingers crossed!

  If you have a car it can take some time to find a parking nearby on weekends and market days. The facilities looked fabulous, we didn't use the kitchen much as we spent most of our time with family who live locally. Beds and sofa's were all comfortable and the house feels cosy. The stairway up to the bedrooms is narrow, which I know wouldn't suit my father-in-law if he was staying with us. A lovely cottage and we would look to stay there again when visiting.

  Perfect location right in the middle of beautiful Kirkby Lonsdale. It was so clean, so comfortable and so attractively furnished. It was very well equipped too.

  Located in a quiet street, but a short walk to all the shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants the location was perfect. Whist a lack of onsite car parking is not ideal, we had no problem loading/unloading luggage and then purchasing a 7 day permit for use in one of the car parks a 5 minute walk away. The cottage was spotlessly clean on arrival and I have rarely slept in a comfier bed! Kirkby Lonsdale itself is one of the prettiest villages around and will definitely be back. There are some great walks straight from the village and a 30 minute car journey will take you to the more challenging 3 peaks etc. You are literally spoilt for choice in terms of places to eat & we can highly reccomend Platos, Botanica and The Orange Tree. Plus no walk is complete without a cake from the bakery!
