  Absolutely gorgeous cottage.

  Modern showeroom, lots of towels and toilet tissue. First impression walking in was how warm and well kept the cottage was. Fully equipped with modern kitchen fitting the cottage feel and dishwasher. There is a washing machine at the property too! We didn't take advantage of either. But great little extras. We lit the log burner for a cosy evening and we logged into our netflix to watch a film. WiFi was excellent. We were so grateful we could take our dogs. The dogs were welcome. We brought with us their towels and beds and food bowls. A lovely little gated area we were allowed to use for the dogs. We were out all day exploring so the dogs got well walked over the couple of days. Lots of things to do nearby if you like history, as we do. We regret the vulcan museum is only open on a Saturday so we'll have to come back for that! The Scottish border is near. Where we visited Gretna green. Going back to Tight Lyne...a big superking bed. Quiet location. Lots of wildlife to see and a very friendly owner David who came to check we were OK. Departure day we met Pip the border collie who you might see when David is working... just a real wholesome break for us overall. Thank you

  We had a lovely stay at 'Fortress'. The cottage is part of a handsome Barn conversion with a view over the garden. It was easy to find, and is in an excellent location, close to Carlisle but in peaceful countryside near to Hadrian's Wall. Fortress was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. It is well furnished and a great deal of care has clearly gone in to making it a cosy and relaxing place to stay. We appreciated all the little extras, (including a bottle of wine!), and the friendly welcome from Anne and Jonathan. Everything is well thought out. There are designated parking and outdoor spaces for each of the holiday cottages. There is a laundry room with washers and dryers which is great for muddy walkers: providing detergent and conditioner was a thoughtful extra. Anne and Jonathan (and family) went above and beyond to provide a relaxing and problem-free holiday, We would highly recommend Bleatarn Park to any holiday maker, and we hope to return soon.

  Just back from a lovely peaceful week at Swallows Nest with our 2 dogs.

  I can't think of anywhere better to be at this time, surrounded by nature, animals, fields and beautiful little villages. An easy drive to the Lake District, and a nice walk into the local village which has a good shop, 2 pubs and a lovely river walk. For us having 2 dogs the totally enclosed garden was a huge benefit as we could open the patio doors and not have to worry about them escaping! (one is a husky.....say no more). Just up a path on the farm grounds, through the lovely serene pet cemetery we had access to several large fenced in paddocks for the dogs to play in the morning and evening. We were out all day exploring so it was good to have somewhere close for them before we went and when we got back. The cottage itself is a charm, lovely open space downstairs with everything we needed and 2 good bedrooms and large bathroom upstairs. I would recommend this cottage to anybody wanting to get away from it all.

  We have just come back from a long weekend break at the swallows nest.

  The first thing that stuck us as we walk into the cottage was the damp smell. It wasn’t the cows that live next door but a damp, mould type smell. We dreaded it every time we walked back into the cottage. There at 2 small leather sofas to watch the tv on at the end of a tiring day. They are very uncomfortable. I’ve seen other people write this and laugh but it’s so true. The pillows are awful…take your own!! Here’s the best part…the hot tub…don’t waste your money. You have to light the fires hours before to keep the water hot, then keep stirring the tub with a huge paddle to keep the warmth moving about, then place 2 heavy covers over it until it’s time to stir it again. It’s not a hot tub…it’s a couldron!!! Other than that..there’s 2 great pubs and some lovely walks nearby!!!
