The cottage was beautiful and clean.

The cottage was beautiful and clean. Even though it sleeps 2, the accommodation was very spacious. The owners made us feel very welcome and Lottie our Airedale Terrier loved it so much she slept in more than us. The local people in Askham were very friendly and we highly recommend the Punchbowl Inn. The staff were accommodating and friendly. We will definitely come back to Mill Barn.

Lovely cosy cottage on the edge of the lowther river. Owners are really friendly and always to hand if any issues. We had none by the way. Local pub at top of hill really nice and friendly. Gray location for exploring the lakes. We will definitely go back.
