Had a great stay with the family. 6 persons staying in a 7-bed cottage. Everything was clean, and when we spotted the odd item not working, Margaret was super responsive getting them fixed or replaced. The games room was a great addition since we have 2 teens, although it was a little cold in there. We booked the hot tub for an extra indulgence (definitely takes 8 hours to heat from cold so either plan to refill wood every 45 mins or else pay the extra cost for Margaret to prep it). There’s a welcome book by the sofa filled with lots of useful info (which we found the day before we left). Luckily lots of great restaurants/pubs and cafes in the area and highly recommend a walk to Cockersands lighthouse. Take a picnic ! Despite the weather, we had a lovely relaxing stay.
This is a beautiful and well equipped cottage in a stunning location. It is perfect for family getaways and ideal for families with children as there is lots of space to run around outside. The parachute club right next door provides great entertainment, watching the plane and the parachutes. We recommend this accomodation and we hope to return in the future.
The accommodation was very clean, well equipped and comfortable. We received an excellent welcome/check in from Margaret. The area is very quiet, in fact, quite remote. This was fine for us - we didn’t mind needing the car to go anywhere and appreciated the expanse of countryside around us. It is a windy country road to access the farm. I suggest being well planned regarding food/supplies/shopping as we didn’t find a nearby shop so did need to drive into Lancaster for supermarkets when we needed anything (takes 15-20 mins). It was fun to watch the planes take off and land and the parachutists landing - this all happens directly on the site! Activity starts around 8am with the first plane taking off somewhere between 8-8.30am - we didn’t find this disruptive and enjoyed seeing it. There is WiFi - it was a bit patchy but whilst we were there cables were being laid for fibre so this should improve connectivity very soon. The layout was open plan kitchen, dining and living area with the double and twin rooms downstairs and the en suite wet floor (accessible) shower room with doors off from the lounge and double bedroom. Stairs led off the lounge to the family room (double and single beds) which have an en suite bathroom (shower over bath). All felt spacious. There is a laundry room - take pound coins to operate the washers and driers. There is also a games room with sofas, table tennis, pool, air hockey and table football. There’ are football goals on the field. There is a small gym with hand weights, bar, a cross trainer, rowing machine and spinning bike (not powered). We would return - would be nice as a family group to book together having private accommodation but with the communal games room and also a large, covered, outdoor, communal banqueting table with benches, an outdoor stove, fire pit and nice lighting. There is also an events room that can be booked.
We are located directly on the English Coastal Pathway with the great outdoors waiting to be explored directly from the doorstep, epic sunsets to be enjoyed over the salt marshes of Morecambe Bay, ‘A breath of fresh air’ walk to the Plover Scar Lighthouse and Cockersands Abbey ancient ruins.
Located on the edge of the village of Cockerham which is home to the popular ice cream parlour cafe, Wallings and award winning tap room and brewery Farm Yard Brew & Co which has an ever changing calendar of events and pop ups taking place.
The historic city of Lancaster is 10 minutes drive away, with lots of eateries, museums, Lancaster Castle, Williamson Park and butterfly house, as well as boutique shops and coffee culture cafes. Lancaster has regular festivals and bustling events calendar, we recommend visiting the Visit Lancashire resource to find out whats coming up.
The Fairtrade market town of Garstang is also 10 minutes drive which has a high street of shops and restaurants.
We are only 40 minutes drive to the Lake District, UNESCO World Heritage site. 15 minutes away from the Forest of Bowland Natural Landscape, 40 minutes to Blackpool, 20 minutes to Morecambe and one hour to Manchester making Lancaster truly, ‘The Road to nowhere’
We live in a truly wonderful community with friendly people and beautiful landscapes and we hope you’ll enjoy it too.
It’s best if you have a car to get around and about to truly appreciate the scenic Lancashire countryside.
There are plenty of cycle and walking routes in the area to explore.
If you are arriving by train, Lancaster train station is approximately 15 minutes drive and we can recommend a taxi service if required.
We are approximately 1.5 miles down a lane away from the nearest bus drop off.

I'm born and bred in the area & grew up on our family farm next door making me very connected to area as well as having lots of local knowledge and recommendations I'm happy to share.
