Vine Cottage Reviews

We had a fantastic Easter break at Vine Cottage and couldnt have asked for a better place to stay. From the moment we arrived, it felt welcoming, cosy and well thought out l. Karen and John were so welcoming, which made it even more special. The hot tub was a real standout, nicely covered, very private, and perfect whatever the weather. The cottage itself is finished to a high standard and stocked with everything you might need. The added touches like robes, towels, flip flops, salt, pepper, tea, sugar and the handy forget me box really set it apart. The location is great too, with lovely walks nearby and a local shop and pub within easy reach. We had such a lovely stay and would happily recommend Vine Cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing break. Well definitely be back!
Vine cottage is an excellent house for any family or friends visiting the North West of England. It is set in the quiet village of Pilling and is great for exploring the area with Lancaster and the South Lakes to the North and Blackpool to the South. The cottage has all the facilities and great outdoor seating area not to mention a lovely hot tub which was well maintained by Karen and John the very welcoming owner's. I can thoroughly recommend Vine Cottage to anyone.
A fantastically equipped property for 3 generations. This property comes with the personal experience. Karen and John have thought of everything. The moment you arrive you are personally hand the keys and shown the property. There's a welcome hamper that goes above and beyond. The house is spotless and gives that new house feel, the carpets are still fluffy. Then as you settle in to the home and start to cook and use the kitchen, it is made so easy by a extremely well equipped kitchen. 6 days I cooked a full English breakfast for everyone and on sunday a full pork roast dinner with amazing crackling created in the oven. Extra cutlery and crockery, so just put dishwasher on and relax. Get your robe on and go outside enjoy the under cover hot tub, no matter the weather. Sit on the sofas cozy up in a amazing smelling blanket and play the many games that are provided. There are tonnes of days out in the area, for all ages. Or if you want to relax and stay around the village. Loads of pushchair walks for young kids on a morning. Great chippy for those cheat nights, and many more options in the village over, excellent Chinese. You must try Wallings icecream Personally, I recommend the warm waffle and ice cream. Thanks so much Karen and John. You've done an excellent job creating a home away from home.
Our second stay at this superb property did not disappoint. Exceptionally clean, well equipped and warm property with owners who cannot do enough for you. This has become our go to property for a tranquil and relaxing break in a lovely area. Greeted by an excellent welcome pack you can want for nothing here. We have used holiday cottages every year for 26 years and this is the first time we have returned to a property which says it all really, thoroughly recommended.
Just perfect. The cottage is so beautiful, the owners have gone above & beyond to make guests feel welcome, its light and airy, spacious yet cosy, with some lovely extras wine, bead, milk, crisps.... From the moment you step through the door you find fabulous open plan space to entertain, cook & share family meals, play games lots available TV with loads to watch & cosy up on the sofa or read a book in front of the log burner
Vine cottage is a 5 Star home from home. Beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. Lovely welcome hamper, which was very much appreciated. Karen and John were very welcoming, met us on arrival and were on hand if we needed anything. Would highly recommend a stay at Vine Cottage. Book now to avoid disappointment!!
WOW WOW WOW We stayed at Vine cottage for New Year and it was fabulous! We had a very warm welcome from Karen and John, the house had absolutely everything we needed, the welcome pack was a wonderful bonus and much appreciated. Hot tub was amazing, we struggled to get the Husbands out of it Everything we asked Karen and John for was provided and done quickly, nothing was too much trouble. We ventured out to the local pub about a 25 min walk ate and drank here, had a great afternoon, worth the visit. Will we be back?? 1000 yes! one of the best cottages we have ever stayed in. Thanks Karen and John x

Our family enjoyed the hot tub even in the rain in Dec as it was lovely and warm. The owners were helpful and very friendly and we rely would recommend staying here. We didn't want to leave
Our 5th time at Vine Cottage and wow what a wonderful holiday let. Every thing and more you could wish for. Karen and John,s attention to detail is excellent we hope to stay again.
Nicola
This was our third time visiting Vine Cottage and we have just booked again for next year. It is home from home, so comfortable with lovely little touches and has everything you could need in a holiday home. Karen and John are the loveliest hosts so needless to say, Vine Cottage is somewhere we will stay again and again!!
We loved our stay! We've stayed in a number of Sykes properties ever since getting our dog 6 years ago and have to say this is our favourite. The house was immaculate! I was a little concerned about our dog being able to get through the large gaps in the gates but karen had a fix for this and panels were put on the gate straight away to close the gaps, with these the garden felt very secure. The hot tub was lovely and it was great that it was under cover there were lights for when it was cloudy darker. Kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of crockery and different types of glassware. The butchers and bakery in knott end were great as was the Indian takeaway we'd recommend for sure. Also took a trip to billy Bob's for some great diner food. We're hoping to go back soon!

Amanda
Firstly pulling up to vine cottage was a joyous moment due to its dominance and medieval feel due to the church being next to it. We were greeted by Karen & John like we were already friends so much so it felt like a warm hug. They were very understanding about our youngest sons special needs and made sure to make our boisterous 4 year old very welcome indeed by putting up the goal post and asking him questions to see if they could provide more for him. Vine cottage was big but homely with the love care and attention to detail that you can tell comes from a deep love of her Karens childhood home and we felt blessed to become a part of its rich tapestry. We found everything we needed and then even more, the kitchen has everything that you could possibly need and want, including a welcome basket full of goodies and some extra bits in the fridge. Due to how the home was set out we had space from each other aswell as unity that has brought us even closer than close as a family and we are already talking about the next visit to see Karen,John & vine cottage. Thankyou both so much, God bless you both and your family x x
Lovely break away and beautiful well equipped cottage! Everything you need for a fantastic stay and lovely surroundings. Made very welcome by Karen and her family.
We spent a wonderful week at Vine Cottage. Karen and John are a lovely couple who made us very welcome in their stunning cottage. Our 2 teenage granddaughters loved going back to a few hours in the hot tub after a busy day out exploring. Karen recommended The Flower Bowl entertainment centre and garden centre which proved to be a great day out . We are hoping to book again next year.
Joanne
We have used sykes holidays for years and this is is the best we have ever stayed at. Amazing property with everything you could ask for and then more. Karen and John were amazing and couldn't do enough for you. Wow just wow.
The House and grounds are beautifully presented and credit to the Owners is richly deserved. The rooms throughout are spotless it is clear that an extremely sympathetic total refurbishment has been undertaken. A great weeks holiday for a variety of age groups.
Jocelyn
Fantastic house in a quiet location, the house had everything we needed and more. The house was spacious, clean and very comfortable. Karen and John were really welcoming and quick to respond to messages. Good car parking spaces and space outdoors.
This was our second visit to lovely Vine Cottage. The property is beautifully maintained inside & out. Its extremely well equipped & immaculately clean with all we needed for a very comfortable stay. Karen & John made us feel so welcome. The hot tub was a lovely treat as was the sunshine . Definitely a great place to come and relax! Thank you so much, we hope to be back soon.

Our second visit to the beautiful Vine Cottage. As last year, couldnt fault a thing. A wonderful restoration of this lovely, very well equipped cottage. The Schofield family are lovely, nothing too much trouble. Looking forward to our next visit, if they can put up with Barrys terrible jokes..

Sophie
Our stay was lovely and we felt very looked after by Karen and John. They were very knowledgable about places to go in the area and checked up on us by message to make sure everything was ok each morning. Karen also provided a lovely spa session which as a group of 7 girl students, we thoroughly enjoyed! The house was in great condition with lots of resources and had everything we needed to cook all 3 nights. We really enjoyed the hot tub as well as using the outside furniture with the lovely weather. I would highly recommend staying at vine cottage!
Sandra
Everything was excellent. We had fabulous weather so may be a couple of sun loungers for the grass area for relaxing in the unusually good British weather.
Valerie

The garden is nice for sitting out and the hot tub was a big hit with the family especially the boys the view is so lovely.Karen and John the owners live next door and they are very welcoming and on hand for anything you need to know they clean the hot tub everyday I would highly recommend it . I would also like to say that I would give a higher rating if I could. Thank you vine cottage Karen and John hope to come back to celebrate another birthday or just to relax. The welton family x
Emanuela
This property was unreal! Karen really paid attention to the extra details required of a stay. We loved the fact it was her old family home and she had renovated it to the modern day, with the traditional features still present. Everything you could ever need was there for us and Karen was so accommodating and relaxed. I think she panicked when we told her it was a hen party lol but we were the classy kind of hen party and remained respectful to Karen and her home. The hot tub was amazing and the surrounding village was so cute too. A little out in the sticks and cell service is poor, but once you've stocked up on supplies and connected to the WIFI in the cottage the world is reset again! Fab stay, cannot recommend this place enough. I cant wait to have the opportunity to return in the future! Thanks again
Katarzyna

Our 2nd visit and we will be back again Another relaxing visit this time for a week. The cottage is lovely, well equipped and furnished to a very high standard with lots if extras.

The hot tub plus sitting on the sofa in the dining area with the bifold doors open reading a book, listening to the birds and the church bells were a daily highlight. Lots of places to go to if you choose to plus thr local buses are on the doorstep. Thank you for a lovely stay again.
