  We were in the area earlier than the 4pm check in and we called Danielle to see if we could arrive a little bit early, She checked with the cleaner and then called us back to say it was ready early for us, which was a nice start to our break.

  When we arrived we were greeted by Danielle and her two lovely dogs and she told us about the hot tub, walks in the area and places to eat nearby, all extremely helpful. The cottage was spotless! You could see it had been deep cleaned ready for us, we found a lovely bottle of prosecco and some home made rocky road brownies waiting for us in the kitchen which was a nice touch by the owners. The cottage was warm, cosy and right next to the river Esk. The hot tub was huge and great to relax in on a night with a glass of bubbles ! We had a newly built viewing area down some steps over looking the river, this would be lovely on a warm morning/evening to sit and watch the wild life. Bed was very comfortable and plenty of wardrobe space, could have done with more hangers in the wardrobe and one of the roller blinds was broken, no pully to open/shut the blind. Bathroom was light and airy and has a very good shower, plenty of towels (even though we took our own too), the shower glass door is very loose and can open so water can go on the floor, this needs attention. Kitchen was a great size and had plenty of cupboards but few glasses, only 1 wine glass and no prosecco glasses. It has two plastic glasses for out side but not great to drink out of while chilling in the living room, and needs a blind at the front door window. Outside area was relaxing and plenty of wood and matches for the chimenea, it does have a small two seater wicker sofa but the cushions had been left out so they were wet and mouldy, not sure why these weren't brought into the cottage ? so we couldn't use that seating area. We are been a little picky with these issues but they are so small and could be easily remedied to make the cottage even better than it is, we will definitely be going back, such a relaxing spot away from everything, just what's needed if you want a chilled out break!

  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

  Our stay at Carwinley Mill House Cottage was absolutely wonderful, and we were greeted with a very warm welcome by the owners, then shown around as soon as we arrived.

  The cottage had recently been refurbished and we were completely taken aback by how lovely it looked, by the work that had been done to it, and it's history. It was clean, roomy, and absolutely gorgeous! There was plenty of space for two, and outside, the cottage's position created a perfect sun trap at the top sitting area, which was great for relaxing, plus jacuzzi sessions were made even more enjoyable by the nature that was hiding in and around the trees, and the sound of the river. The second sitting area was a few steps below and opened up onto a lovely decked balcony, overhanging the river. It really couldn't get more tranquil. Longtown is perfect for travelling to Scotland, the Lakes, the border, or exploring further south, and my husband and I stayed at Carwinley Mill House Cottage for a week, which for us, wasn't enough, but we had to come home (although we honestly didn't want to leave!) We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and we will be booking to stay again. Danielle, Jed, Trevor and Danielle's mum were all so warm and friendly, it really topped off our stay. A huge thank you to you all! We'll be back.

  Lovely peaceful surroundings, hot tub was good when it worked properly.

  WiFi was very poor and worked intermittently. Some maintenance required in the grounds as the trees and bushes are taken over with the banister not available for the full duration of the steep steps down to the decked area at waterside due to brambles and nettles over growing. I would recommend to the owner the installation of some netting at the doors with a magnetic closure in middle, this would allow the freedom of having the French doors open without the worry of allowing too many flies inside, as it is nice to allow the fresh air in. The couch in the livingroom lacks a little support so when you wish to relax inside in the evening it can be difficult without constantly moving cushions around to assist. Although there is room for improvement, this is a lovely place that is only a short drive from the motorway but far away enough away for peace and quiet.

  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.
