Carwinley Mill House Cottage Reviews

Perfect location away from traffic and all the hustle and bustle of city life. Chill out in the hot tub 5 steps from the bedroom door. Or relax in the garden with a book. A private lower decked area closer to the burn will have you feeling closer to nature, and being the perfect place for a coffee while listening to the water trickle by while you watch the squirrels and birds. The property is immaculate with big windows to allow you to enjoy the views of nature whatever the weather. Cosy and comfortable with the bonus of friendly informative hosts. A few local shops, takeaways, pubs and petrol station within a 6 minute drive. One takeaway even delivers to your cottage if you need a complete break from driving. Gretna shopping outlet and the M6 are only 15 minutes away. Carlisle is about a 25 minutes drive. I'll be booking again for my birthday near the end of the year.

The cottage was lovely, it was clean, spacious and very peaceful. It was only a 15 minute drive into Carlisle city centre, however just a 5 min drive into Longtown. I would definitely use them again and I have already recommended the cottages to friends family My only complaint which I forgot to mention to the owner was they use feather pillows, however it was only the top pillow so I swapped with my partner as I have allergies. Hot tub was fab

We had a lovely stay in April, the cottage was cosy and homely. Definitely going to be re booking for next year . The nearest village dosnt have much but 10min drive theses a town with everything you need

I stayed here with my partner last weekend for a long weekend. We cannot fault our stay, the owners of the property were extremely helpful and very welcoming on arrival. What a beautiful spot they have! The cottage was very cosy and had all the amenities you would need for a relaxing stay. We will be sure to book again in the future. We could not recommend this enough, you will not be disappointed

Welcoming hosts, excellent facilities. We were delighted with our stay and could not be happier with how it went.

We had a really enjoyable stay, it was tidy, cosy and comfortable. We would definitely recommend!

A cosy cottage in an idyllic setting. Having private access to a decking that looked over the river was wonderful, and having a large hot tub and outdoor fire was also fabulous. The hosts were lovely, welcoming and couldn't do enough for us special shoutout to Jared. Will most definitely be coming back!
