Reviews
Arrived at the cottage to be warmly greeted by owner who showed us the cottage. WOW this is such a wonderful well equipped and spacious cottage. The décor is superb and has quality stamped all over the furnishings and amenities. It was lovely and warm with radiators throughout plus a log fire in the lounge. plenty of hot water. The cottage is spotlessly clean and has everything for a very comfortable stay. It is very well thought out inside from the downstairs cloakroom, spacious lounge and lovely kitchen and dinning area. The upstairs has a wonderful family bathroom with a generous shower and free standing slipper bath. the two bedrooms are beautiful with plenty of storage and space. If the weather had been nice we would have also enjoyed the patio and garden area. Car parking is off road on the cobbled area. this is 5* quality at its best. we would highly recommend staying here and will definitely rebook in the future. Many thanks to Caroline who made our stay so perfect and thank you for the delicious chocolate cake and bottle of wine, must appreciated. kind regards Rita & Graham/Lincolnshire.
What an amazing cottage! Beautifully decorated, very clean and perfectly located. The owner made us feel very welcome and we will be sure to return to this stunning cottage.

Caroline I would love to know where you purchased the tall smart Fox candle holders in the living room as they were a fantastic as they would look fantastic in our living room too ?? if anyone is thinking of going to the ate and would like a 5 cottage then this is the one thank you again Caroline
Fantastic cottage and very warm welcome from Caroline, absolutely everything you need and lovely welcome goodies on arrival. Loved the hand made anniversary card and gift thank you. Location great for walking , and lots of lovely places to visit with only little driving. To name just a few great days out Yorkshire Sculpture Park , walk around Langsett reservoir and moors awesome , then back to the lovely cottage with great log burner for a cozy evening. Great week would highly recommend this cottage.
No need to look further, this is the one, St Johns Cottage is really warm and welcoming, beautifully light and airy, fabulously decorated and yet retains all the comfortable cottage features one would expect from a home of this age. The owners are delightful and are very hands on in respect of doing all they can to make sure you enjoy your stay. Poor a glass of wine and relax.
