  If you are looking for total peace and relaxation Cherry Croft is ideal.

  The property is tastefully finished to a high standard, and includes modern touches like electric sockets with USB ports, and smart TVs. Although there are neighbouring properties nearby you do not feel at all overlooked. We spent two weeks doing nothing but walking, sitting in the garden and, on rainy days, watching the tide going in and out across the Solway Firth. The RSPB Campfield Marsh is a couple of minutes walk away and well worth a visit. Although there are no local shops and the fridge/freezer is a little on the small size (especially if you have to feed two sons in their 20s!) ASDA will deliver groceries, so it wasn't too much of a problem. The owners are lovely - on hand if you need them, but not intrusive. There are a couple of little things we noticed - there are no tall glasses for lemonade / beer, and there were very few cleaning products - especially toilet cleaner or bleach. Having stayed for two weeks, I would have liked to do a thorough clean before leaving. Also, we were lucky enough to have some really sunny days, but in the evening the heat makes sitting in the armchair quite uncomfortable, so maybe a blind or curtain on the side window would be a good idea. Overall though, we had a fabulous stay and would highly recommend this property.

  A true gem of a place.

  A real home from home, owners lovely and welcoming. Full use of hot tub (which is the best we have had) and swimming pool, no time restrictions, full use of massive suntrap garden. Everything possible has been thought of right down to kitchen utensils, bathrobes and towels for pool/hottub. Easily placed for St Annes and Blackpool, both walkable if you like walking and footpaths all the way which is good. It's lovely and peaceful and secure with the electric gates. Make sure you buy some fresh eggs from the residential hens which are lovely, both the hens and the eggs. Had a fantastic week and it's only half an hour's drive from home! Can't wait to return, I've recommenced to friends who say it looks amazing! Ideal for a couple or small family who want a breakaway within easy reach of Blackpool but far enough away from the centre. If you want to drive into Blackpool/St Annes/Lytham/Clevelleys which are all pretty near there are plenty of free parking on side streets if you are prepared to walk a little. Thanks Jenna, Baz , Paige, Jess and Amy and not forgetting Marley the lovely dog who likes to play the stone throwing game for making us so welcome, you are a lovely family, felt like we came as guests and left as friends xx

  This is both the best holiday accommodation and most dog friendly accommodation we have stayed in.

  The property was beautifully appointed and had so many great dog friendly facilities. As owners of a large dog, we were delighted that the garden was properly secure (high fences) and spacious. There were also a selection of dog bowls, a hamper of dog towels and a hamper of dog blankets for the furniture, if you have a sofa dwelling dog. The kitchen was very well equipped, with excellent quality kitchen ware. A great bonus is the upstairs entertainment room, with a massive TV, XBox, DVDs,CDs, books and a computer desk with monitors. The beds were comfortable, the showers were large with good water pressure, the towels were soft and there were even slippers and robes. Having stayed out of season, we were glad it was nice and warm in the house. I can imagine, it would be lovely to sit out in the garden in the summer. It is also in a great location; Wigton, nearby has good facilities, Carlisle is only 20 minutes or so up the road, or head south for the Lakes, north for Hadrian’s Wall, or west for the coast.

  Our stay at Mayfield cottage was fantastic from start to finish.

  Jen & Baz are lovely hosts. They met us with the key, showed us around and explained everything. The cottage is stunning and in the most beautiful grounds. The hot tub and pool were a great bonus and we made the most of the good weather by using them every day. The cottage has everything you need, the kitchen is really well equipped, there’s even a wine cooler and it’s very tastefully decorated throughout. We felt very comfortable and relaxed from the moment we arrived. It’s close to both Blackpool and Lytham St Annes, both are only a few minutes drive away. We use Sykes a lot to book holiday accommodation but we haven’t stayed anywhere as nice as here and I have recommended Mayfield to all my friends and family. We’re already planning to stay again next year. If you’re thinking about staying here, book it, you won’t be disappointed.
