We stayed in Primrose Cottage, which has 2 bedrooms and sleeps 4 people. On arrival there was a freshly baked loaf, fresh eggs and milk supplied. Rectory is a working farm so there are dogs (3 very friendly animals), horses, chickens, sheep and cattle all around. If you don't like animals or animal noises then, for goodness sake don't go...

I stayed at Rectory Farm for three nights as part of a cycling holiday and the experience could not have been better. The room was very comfortable, the breakfast was lovely ( fresh baked bread etc. ). Most important, the owners were exceptionally helpful. They washed and dried our cycling kit when we needed it. They kept the bikes locked... More

Just returned from a week in Cowslip cottage. The cottage was warm & cosy all week despite the very cold weather outside. This meant the electric blanket was very beneficial. The location is absolutely perfect, surrounded by stunning scenery, walks and a fantastic pub. We had a great week with our dog and would highly recommend it to anyone.

The first thing that struck us about Cowslip Cottage was just how clean it was......absolutely spotless, we've stayed in lots and lots of cottages and have to say that this cottage was the cleanest we have ever stayed in. The lemon cake left for us was delicious.....even nicer than the lemon drizzle cake sold in the cafe at Nunnington Hall... More

Thank you for the kind words, We use a lemon cake recipe from "Good Housekeeping - Cakes and Bakes" as well as their Porter and Carrot cake recipes. As a little extra touch we have fitted electric under blankets for the winter to both beds. We aim to maintain high standards of cleanliness in the cottage for all our guests... More

We booked two weeks in September when the weather was not so good and was disappointed to find Cowslip Cottage to be quite cold in the evening until the central heating came on, the time it did switch on varied. The kitchen utensils were inadequate and there was no bread knife. The Wi-Fi which was supposed to be available and... More

We welcome feedback sooner rather than later, and will always strive to correct and improve our service to guests as quickly as possible. It is and has been a very wet year for many parts of the country. Painting is an ongoing maintenance internally in the winter subject to availability. and externally in the summer ( if it does not...

Like everyone we are hopeful of good weather in spring and summer and look... More

I booked Cowslip Cottage for a quiet break for me and my partner and we were not disappointed. The cottage is very pretty, is furnished extremely well and has everything you could possibly need for a holiday or short break. We were really impressed with the home made cake and bread, eggs and milk that had been left for our... More

Having travelled from Blackburn after 4pm in winter hours, we would advise others against travelling to the site in darkness to avoid both getting lost and having to navigate the many narrow, steep and winding roads that provide access to the property. This however forms no part of the overall review of the accomodation, many infact might even enjoy the... More

We had a short break in Yorkshire last week and we were very lucky to find this wonderful house. The breakfast was supberb. The hoasts Michael and Heather could not be more helpful. The icing on the cake is the local pub is only a few yards and serves good food and local real ale.
