Cottage holiday rentals in Stainforth

Myself and my partner came to stay for 2 nights. As soon as we walked in we felt extremely welcomed and at home. Lots of detail was put into the cottage along with homemade cake and fresh apple juice. The surroundings were amazing and hosts had provided maps and allowed us access on the farm. Would 100% recommend and we will definitely be booking to come again. We met both hosts who were very lovely and you can tell they have put a lot of thought into the cottage and hard work. There is generally nothing to complain about, the whole cottage was perfect!

We’ve had the most wonderful time staying here. The Loft is spotless, beautifully decorated and has everything you need for a relaxing getaway. The views from the hot tub are breathtaking , it’s genuinely like stepping into a postcard! The perfect location for exploring The Dales. Claire and Neil are very welcoming and thoughtful, providing great recommendations. We’d thoroughly recommend staying here and would not hesitate to book again! Thank you for having us x

What a joy it was to stay in this gorgeous cottage! It was the perfect escape in the Lake District. The property is stunning and the location wonderful. The grounds are so serene and beautiful you almost don’t need to ever leave! The cottage is lovely and quaint and very comfortable. We loved having a log fire at night and the beds were very comfortable. We really enjoyed using the hot tub and sauna—felt like a private spa getaway! Marc and Ruth were so responsive and helpful. It was so nice. Hope to definitely come back someday with my family!

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

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.

Wonderfully peaceful location. Holly Toft is a very comfortable and welcoming place to stay. We paticularly appreciated how much care was given to ensuring the hot tub was spotlessly clean and freshly filled for our arrival. Kathryn is a superb host who clearly cares a lot about her guests. The field full of adorable lambs to look out on was a delightful bonus! Highly recommend! Thank you Kathryn.

We loved the cottage and the hot tub was an added bonus each day after a long walk. It was very quiet, which we like. The cottage was furnished to a high quality and the bed was really comfy. There is plenty of lovely walks close by. We would certainly visit again.

It was brilliant from start to finish host were fab always attentive and on call location was good as only round the corner there was loads of pubs and food places and only 25 mins to Blackpool really fab and would recommend to everyone

Sally and David’s place was beautiful. It was decorated tastefully and was just the right size for the two of us and our border terrier We were welcomed by a box of goodies for the three of us! There was a great pub and a cafe in Hebden, both within easy walking distance and the surrounding countryside was just lovely.

What an absolute gem we found in Apple House. The pictures really don't do the whole place justice! A cosy, romantic house set in beautiful, serene surroundings. It really was the perfect location for our mini moon! Was lovely to be greeted by the chickens and Russel the dog each morning <3 We were treated to some tasty welcome gifts and the place was spotless, very comfy bed and just the most charming decor. Thank you so much Emma and Craig! We will definitely be returning with more of our family!

Had a fabulous time here for my husband's birthday. cottage was beautiful and exactly what we wanted. It was the little extras from Emma and Greg that made it super special. we'll definitely be back. I would definitely recommend - perfect xxx

We stayed at Lisa’s property for 2 nights in June. The place is gorgeous quirky and well put together. Lisa has accommodated lots of details for her guests in the house, whether you just want to relax or be sporty with walk’s and cycle storage. The house location is stunning with water running and sheep. The area is close to Coniston and all the main lakes as well as Windermere for a 35 minute drive. We toured about the area however there’s lots to do even if you just wish to relax with a book and gaze outside at the hills. There is a local boozer which works out a mile away by car we had an evening meal with starter and drinks. Angela and I wish to thank Lisa for a fantastic few days we plan again to rebook for next year for 3-4 days. Thankyou

Wow! What a fantastic place to stay. The cottage was a perfect haven for a relaxing holiday. The scenery was breathtaking, and we spent much of the time gazing out of the window at the dramatic weather and wildlife. We wished we could have stayed longer! And will recommend it to all our friends. Many thanks Sally, Kevin and Pippa 🐾

A distinctive character cottage lovingly furnished and well equipped, with great views. A short distance from the canals for walking/cycling and only 30 min canal side walk (3 min drive) into the beautiful Gargrave for shops and pubs. Comfortable. Characterful. Well equipped. Lovely bathroom Compact kitchen would be cosy for four to dine, but has all you need and there is space to eat outside (weather permitting) too. It is right beside the A65 so there is road noise but Host Laura says that in the description - it’s a Toll House, so no surprise - but the enormous old walls help stop it being intrusive, and is probably reflected in the great value. The outside area is secure for pets and children. .

This was a lovely stay in the Northern Lake District. The cottage was cosy and felt so perfectly tucked into the beautiful surroundings. We had an easy time getting to all of our activities and sweet nights in cooking dinner and enjoying the fire pit.

We had an amazing 2-night stay at Jane’s place. The house is absolutely beautiful and set in breathtaking surroundings—the photos really don’t do it justice, as the real thing is far more exquisite. The decor is warm and homely, yet spacious enough to comfortably fit the five of us. Both bathrooms were spotless—one with a shower and the other with a bathtub, which gave us the flexibility to choose. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, including ample fridge space. The garden is also worth mentioning—gorgeous and clearly very well cared for. We especially loved the fireplace; it truly felt like the cherry on top of an already perfect stay. The house manual was detailed and extremely helpful, covering everything we needed to know. Jane was a wonderful host—so warm and thoughtful. She welcomed us with a lovely letter and some delicious biscuits, which made us feel right at home from the start. Highly recommended!

The Rabbit Hole is one of best stays I have experienced. It is beautifully curated with stylish interior and rabbit theme in the decor and art work. The apartment is well equipped with a great kitchenette. The hand made candles and lotions created by Anne were a lovely touch. Both Anne and Paul were great hosts and very friendly. Their dog woody stole my heart ❤️

We had a wonderful stay at Lynne’s cottage. The place is cozy, clean and comfortable. It is minutes from the Main Street. Lynne was a great host, responsive to our messages and thoughtful. She left us fresh milk and bread, hot chocolate and biscuits. We really enjoyed our time in the cottage and would highly recommend anyone who wanted a restful break!

Really nice cottage, clean and warm. Great to come back to after a day out. When we arrived there was milk in the fridge, the fire was ready to go with kindling and logs provided, olive oil, salt and sugar in a cupboard. All these things including coffee and tea make you feel at home when you arrive. We met Diane and she was really friendly and clearly takes great pride in the house. We are returning in September.

We stayed at Harry's place for just one night but wished it was for longer after getting a feel for the place.The accommodation is beautifully designed with brilliant features in every corner.We had everything we needed at the cottage and Harry is a fab communicator giving us lots of helpful information.The town itself was buzzing with interesting characters and we thoroughly enjoyed our time in Ulverston and can't wait to return.

Perfection. Exactly as described and Janet literally thought of everything. I've never stayed somewhere where you have everything you could possibily need (even pain killers in the draw). The hand written card on arrival was also a lovely touch. The cottage is stunning and very high spec, not to mention spotlessly clean. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place.

The River Barn exceeded all of our expectations and was even more beautiful than the pictures portrayed. The River Barn was very comfortable (the bed was awesome) and all amenities to prepare meals, enjoy a BBQ or go on a picnic were readily available. The location was perfect for our purposes; we greatly appreciated the beautiful and peaceful surroundings of the property but it also provided easy access to Windemere, Ambleside, Grasmere and Keswick where we enjoyed going on several walks. We can't say enough positive comments about our host, Otto communicated with us on several occasions and provided us with lots of information --- where to eat, where to visit and nearby walks. If interested in enjoying a delicious Sunday roast, be sure to reserve a table early at one of the two pubs within easy walking distance. We highly recommend staying at the River Barn and can't wait to visit again!!

Rutters Falls Mill is everything you could hope for in a holiday stay. The mill itself has been beautifully modernized with all the amenities you need, a touch of artistic flair and of course a historic building. Jim and Jane were friendly and helpful hosts. Could not ask for more!

Such a wonderful place to stay - extremely peaceful and so easy to get to surrounding areas. The decor was beautiful and it was so clean - Derek was so helpful beforehand with recommendations for local food and clear instructions with everything needed. Everything you might need has been thought about ☺️ we hope to come back soon!
