What our customers say about their holidays
Dibs - Verified booking
Wow! Thank you so much Chris and Sally (and Florence!
) What a fantastic place! We came as our extended family for a week to celebrate my parentsâ 60th wedding anniversary. Oakdene was perfect for us all despite the huge age range - 4 and 9 to 84 and 87! Oakdene is a fabulous house, beautifully fitted out. Very tastefully decorated and super comfortable sofas and beds. Not only did the bedrooms work brilliantly for us - and they are all of an equally high standard which was great so no-one felt they were being short changed, and three bedrooms were on the ground floor which my father appreciated - but the living space was also excellent which is not always the case. We could all 21 of us eat comfortably together. We could also all hang out in the lounge together - or spread out into the morning room, cinema room, snooker room, kitchen dining room or the various outdoor spaces, the hot tubs being a favourite!! And the setting is just stunning! What amazing views from the house and grounds, sunsets from the lounge and dining room and patio and on a clear night the starry sky was unlike anything we have seen for some time! Fairfield Mill just 100 yards away is a bonus with tea room and 3 floors of beautiful arts and crafts and artist studios. And of course the Yorkshire Dales are simply beautiful, as is the Lake District close by. It was hard to leave at the end of the week! All 21 of us would have no hesitation in highly recommending Oakdene Country House. And as hosts, Chris and Sally were exceptionally friendly and helpful, promptly dealing with any requests or issues. Thank you so much! It was so wonderful!!

Our recent stay at 'Old School Muncaster House' was nothing short of exceptional, especially considering the unique circumstance of 5 families sharing this remarkable retreat.
Nestled amidst nature's embrace, this historic schoolhouse-turned-cottage provided an unforgettable experience that seamlessly blended the charm of yesteryears with modern comfort. From the moment we stepped through the doors, we were enamored by the cottage's rustic yet cozy ambiance, which perfectly accommodated our large group. The spacious interior and thoughtful layout ensured that each family had ample room to relax and unwind, while still fostering a sense of togetherness and camaraderie. The breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside served as the perfect backdrop for our memorable gathering. We were gathered around the fireplace sharing stories, or enjoying meals together on the patio, every moment spent at 'Old School Muncaster House' was filled with warmth and laughter. Despite its secluded location, the cottage was conveniently close to a variety of attractions and activities, ensuring that there was never a dull moment during our stay. From exploring nearby hiking trails to discovering charming local villages, there was something for everyone to enjoy. In conclusion, our time at 'Old School Muncaster House' was an unforgettable experience that brought 5 families together in a truly special way. Whether you're planning a reunion or simply seeking a peaceful retreat with loved ones, this historic cottage offers the perfect setting for creating lasting memories. We can't recommend it highly enough and look forward to returning in the future.

I will wright a true review about our experience.
The location and the cottage are absolutely fabulous. The cleaning needs to be improved, in most of the bathrooms we could easily see that they havenât been touched . No hand soap, no shower gel .. In two bathrooms was hard to have a shower as was no water pressure . In the kitchen are 2 dishwashers but no even one tablet to put in . The fridges also need a good clean . The ovens, there are 4 but only the small one on the right top I managed to turn it on . When I asked about the barbecue I have been told is no barbecue there so we had to buy and carry one and surprise , when we arrived there we found a huge one. Couple of radiators in the rooms are not working but we manage to be comfortable. In the second day we had no electricity from 2pm to 6pm , was quite hard with the kids specially when the dark started but is no ones fault , no even the neighbours had . I tried to get in touch to find out if there is a generator or something but apart from I will try to find out from agency I havenât heard anything. We was lucky that the electricity went back before the night, otherwise I donât know how we would have been able the sleep in cold as everything is electric. Apart from all mentioned we had a wonderful time and we will be happy to return but I hope improvements will be made in the mean time. I recommend to go and see the waterfall , for us was like an adventure but we really enjoyed.

What a gem!
This was a superb property for 10 adults and 10 children for a week's family holiday. it's possibly the best equipped self-catering accommodation we've ever had. It has been beautifully decorated and sympathetically upgraded and tastefully furnished, and is extremely comfortable. The kitchen is fantastic, with two quite astonishing induction hobs. Cooking for 20 was a breeze (we tended to do 10 kids first and 10 adults a bit later), and there is ample fridge and freezer space. The two full sized wine coolers can be used for all wine, beer and soft drinks freeing up fridge space for groceries. The bedrooms are all comfortable with lovely en suite bathrooms. Add in a full-sized snooker table, tabel football, two high tech hot tubs, and a TV room with an up-to-date 4K 65 inch TV and you'll barely every want to go out! However when you do, the surrounding countryside is well worth it and the nearby mill's tearoom serves great cakes. The views across fields to the hills are truly lovely. Improvements? Tricky! The only thing we thought we needed and didn't have was an icecream scoop. Some outdoor games equipment for children would add to the enjoyment perhaps. A big thank you to Chris and Sally (for whom nothing was too much trouble) for providing such a fantastic property. We hope to return next year, as it's hard to imagine finding somewhere better for a family like ours.

What a marvellous manor house!
From the moment we entered the gates, we felt like we were in a truly royal place. Our group of 16 had an incredible time here. The house was immaculate, spacious, and beautifully decorated throughout. The well-equipped kitchen made it easy to prepare meals for our group, and the luxurious bedrooms and bathrooms made us feel like we were staying in a five-star hotel. The grand staircase, chandeliers, lounges, and dining room added a royal touch to the experience. The location was fantastic, closer to tourist destinations in the Lake District than we expected, with easy access to Keswick, Maryport, and Whitehaven. The town centre was only a short walk away, and we found plenty of great pubs and takeaways nearby (Double Happiness Chinese takeaway was our favourite!). We loved the on-site facilities like the games room and hot tub, though we couldnât enjoy the garden due to rain. The hosts were incredibly helpful and responsive, and the security deposit and check-in process were seamless and straightforward. The only downside was that the broadband occasionally slowed down during peak hours, especially when streaming, but this was a minor inconvenience. We already miss the place and are planning our next visit! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing, luxurious, and memorable getaway.
