The cottage was beautiful and clean.
The cottage was beautiful and clean. Even though it sleeps 2, the accommodation was very spacious. The owners made us feel very welcome and Lottie our Airedale Terrier loved it so much she slept in more than us. The local people in Askham were very friendly and we highly recommend the Punchbowl Inn. The staff were accommodating and friendly. We will definitely come back to Mill Barn.

A wonderful property full of charm, smashing location, and a well equipped kitchen for those of us who like to cook. A welcome break from the country of C-19 a bit of self isolation!

A lovely warm and well appointed cottage in a beautiful location. It was lovely to hear the sound of the water rushing by just outside the windows. There are numerous local walks with stunning views from the cottage. The owners of the Mill are very friendly and helpful.

Lovely cosy cottage on the edge of the lowther river.
Lovely cosy cottage on the edge of the lowther river. Owners are really friendly and always to hand if any issues. We had none by the way. Local pub at top of hill really nice and friendly. Gray location for exploring the lakes. We will definitely go back.
