About this property

Situated mostly over the ground floor, with just a double bedroom with an en-suite bath upstairs, this mid-terrace barn conversion is just a short distance from Lancaster near the River Lune. As well as the double upstairs, there are two bedrooms on the ground floor, with the option of being zipped into super king-size doubles, or unzipped into twin beds, plus a family bathroom. The open plan living space, where you can find the kitchen, dining area and sitting area, has a warming woodburner and wide double doors opening into the fenced, lawned garden, where you can enjoy dinner in the summer. There is lots to do nearby, including wonderful walks from the doorstep, making this lovely cottage a fabulous base for a family holiday or a getaway with friends. Note: This cottage is attached to Refs. 913176 and 913187, together they sleep 16.

The historic city of Lancaster, the county town of Lancashire, sits on edge of Morecambe Bay with the River Lune flowing through its centre. Lancaster retains many excellent examples of handsome Georgian architecture, and with its captivating medieval castle, Ashton Memorial, and four museums, it’s a promising place for those in search of tales of the past.

    However, the WiFi was terrible; the towels were hard; the shower leaked over the bathroom floor; there were no instructions (that we could find) inside the cottage about how to work the heating or dishwasher; and the directions and signage were not very good especially as we arrived in dark, rainy conditions. It was hard to see where the Golf Centre was and before reaching that, there was a sign for our cottages outside cottages that were nothing to do with ours, but they looked like they were the ones. So we parked behind them and found we were in the wrong place.

    Furnishing, curtains and decor outdated. No hairdryer Mold and dirt in and around toilet and windowsills of downstairs ensuite Toilet seats not secure..rather uncomfortable Had to clean around taps and plugs in both bedroom sinks... Also had to clean shower and bath plug holes areas...before use We really found this a terrible negative start to our break and did not expect this at all No microwavable dishes...and not working properly No instructions for cooker or microwave TV apps not accessible...were not able to use these...If they are not for general use, this needs to be stated

    We were an extended family of 6, visiting my son at Lancaster Uni. The cottage was a perfect location and was dog friendly. Accommodation was spotlessly clean and a starter pack of wood was supplied for the wood fire. The accommodation was warm on arrival (cold weekend Mid-November), We arrived late and I will mention, directions on Sykes are not descriptive enough. Follow Google Maps and when you get to a left turn, the wall in front details Golf centre, turn left past large cottage and you will see on your left a hedge, gap that is just wide enough for car and cottages detailed as Ashton Cottages. You need to turn immediately left between hedge/wall and cottage wall, this then opens onto a car park for 6/7 cars on your left. We missed the turning and started heading down to caravan park. I must stress this would be easy to find in the light it is only because we arrived so late. Definitely try this accommodation you will not be disappointed.
