The Homestead

The Homestead, a beautiful B&B with great character. Sits in Melling about 5 miles from Kirkby Lonsdale. The hosts Kevin snd Maria, couldn't do enough to make our stay as memorable as possible. Kevin dropped us and picked us up from one of the local pubs, that we had booked in for ouf evening meal. Whilst Maria cooked wonderful breakfasts. Definitely worth a visit, we are looking to book again.

If I could give more stars I would! Outstanding hospitality, your kindness was very much appreciated. We have stayed in some fabulous accommodation but The Homestead is magnificent! I’ve never seen anything like it! I’d would recommend to anybody. Such a lovely couple who own and live there, extremely generous and very helpful. The breakfast, facilities are unmatched in my opinion, they truly go above and beyond for their guests.
