Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you appreciate the amenities offered in this property. Thank you and I hope to see you again! Have a lovely week!
The property is beautiful, with lots of interesting features and a lovely garden. The property owners were very friendly and helpful. Wish I'd booked for longer than an overnight stay!
Yealand Conyers was a great place for our short visit. Had everything we needed. Interesting history of the building. Lovely area. Would book again.

Hello Rachel,
Hope you are well.
Thank you very much for your lovely feedback and we are very happy that you enjoyed your stay with us.
We do hope to see you again.
Best wishes!
Ideal accommodation for a couple or small family who require a short stay in this part of Cumbria. Some parts of the property have received more attention than others - but nothing a little TLC couldn’t remedy .
Lovely place to stay with a charming, fully enclosed garden which the dogs loved.
They also loved the heated floor downstairs!
Sadly the local pub is now closed but The Old School Brewery in Warton is within walking distance
Will definitely return.
Me, my wife and grown up daughter took our young dog on his first holiday to The Midden.
We found it perfect for what we were looking for. Nice quiet village but within easy commute to many places and attractions.
Our dog also absolutely loved it and we all had a great time and lab to return in future.
Communication with property owner was great and access to property etc was easy. Will return and recommend for others.
Stayed here for one night on our way to Scotland. The photos don’t do it justice, it looks deceivingly small but it was plenty big and the garden is enclosed too so our dog could have a safe sniff and wee! Ian and Sue were very welcoming and the house has everything you.need inside and more than I expected. Would highly recommend, thank you!
