The Old Sheep House Reviews

Angela
We had a wonderful stay at The Old sheep house 13 adults, 1 toddler and 1 baby. The open space which has the kitchen, dining and social area is absolutely ideal. Wouldnt hesitate in recommending it. We ate in quite a bit and a suggestion would be some casserole dishes. Plenty saucepans and other equipment including a slow cooker but no casserole lasagne type dishes. One other suggestion would be mirrors in the bedrooms upstairs there is one mirror in the hallway for 4 bedrooms there are low down mirrors in the upstairs bathroom but not that you can do hair, makeup etc. Hot tubs were well used during the week. Beds are comfortable and the whole place was very clean. There was a problem with the WiFi which Jack dealt with he was very helpful throughout our stay.
The absolute perfect base for a large group who were mad enough to take on the Yorkshire 3 Peaks. We had everything we needed and couldn't believe the 5 quality, even the rain didn't stop us getting in the two hot tubs and the outdoor space. When it did get too much, the inside living area was wonderfully comfortable and it was a great place to all sit and chat. Digby, our 2 year old cockapoo was also made to feel really welcome and he had a wonderful time playing football on the grass with everyone or just chilling out in a sun puddle on the floor. Amazing place! Thanks to our host for looking after us
Louise
Our 2 night stay for 14 people was great and the owner Jack was very accommodating and responsive with messages. As the owner lives close by they checked in regularly and they cleaned the hot tubs and mowed the lawn whilst we were out in the town which was excellent. Would recommend to any large groups, very spacious and modern property!
Hannah

Debbie

We had a fantastic Easter weekend to celebrate my birthday with all my family. Plenty of space in the house and grounds to enjoy and great to all being able to eat at the large table. Lovely host very attentive to our needs. Would definitely recommend for large parties.
Michael
Amazing property and even better hosting! !
Lovely luxury property. Very clean. Equipped with everything we needed. Hamper was a lovely touch. Owner was very friendly and popped past a few times to make sure everything was ok. Loved the tvs in the bathroom. Perfect for a large family get together.
I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Old Sheep House for a special surprise 30th birthday celebration for my partner, and it was nothing short of incredible. From start to finish, Jack, the owner, was fantastic always responsive and helpful with any questions or concerns, making the entire experience seamless. The moment we arrived, the place absolutely blew us away. The openplan living area was a standout, providing the perfect space for our group to relax and celebrate. The property was impeccably clean, beautifully designed, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. The welcome hamper was a thoughtful touch that instantly made us feel at home. One of the highlights was the outdoor space, featuring not one but two private hot tubsperfect for unwinding after a day of exploring the Yorkshire Dales. Soaking in the warm water while taking in the stunning surroundings was an unforgettable experience for all of us. Overall, The Old Sheep House is the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and breathtaking location. Whether youre planning a family gathering or a special celebration, this place is an ideal choice. I wholeheartedly recommend it and cant wait to return in the future!
We had such an amazing weekend at the Old Sheep House, it was perfect to bring us all together for a celebration. It would be good to have some hooks in the bedrooms and bathrooms for coats towels etc and also somewhere to hang towels when in the hot tub. The only other thing we felt was missing was some serving dishes and some Pyrex dishes. We did a Sunday roast and had to improvise a little. All very minor things and Id love to return in the future. Thank you for having us!!
Joseph

Head for the Bowland Wild Boar park and we don't think you will be disappointed.  A popular attraction in Preston there is so much to do for the whole family.  From picnics, walks and wildlife to experiencing feeding the animals you are sure to have a memorable day out.  Also popular is the kids tractor play area.  For rest and relaxation the cafe is ideal serving hot drinks and snacks with a lovely view over the pond and wildlife feeding station.  The Forest of Bowland has been declared an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Lakeland Wildlife Oasis - LA6 1JH
about 20 Miles
Located in the Milnthorpe area of Cumbria we love this local attraction.  With an eclectic mix of fascinating wildlife and hands on displays this centre is educational as well as fun.  You can wander around at leisure admiring the exhibits which range from chameleons to computers. Some of the most threatened species are kept at the park as part if international breeding programmes.  Check out their website for the latest opening times and admission costs which are great value for money.  There are discounts for pre-booked parties of 12 or more.

Happy Mount Park has attractions for the whole family including several play areas, a miniature railway, crazy golf, putting green and trampolines, there is also a paddling pool where the little ones can splash around in the summer and a café where the adults can relax with a drink. During the summer months and especially during school holidays live music can often be enjoyed.
Fountains Abbey - HG4 3DY
about 28 Miles
This is an outstanding world heritage site located close to Ripon in the North Yorkshire area. Nature lovers will be in their element with an abundance of wide open spaces to explore and there are special guided tours for families.  Some of the highlights may include seeing wild deer and bats during your visit.  The grounds are fantastic to wander round but there is also an Elizabethan Mansion, Victorian Church, Georgian Water Garden and the finest example of Cistercian Abbey ruins in the country - Well worth a visit!
Lightwater Valley - HG4 3HT
about 29 Miles
Situated in the Ripon area of North Yorkshire this popular theme park makes a fantastic day out for the whole family.  The more daring will love the big and thrilling rides such as Raptor Attack, The Ultimate and Trauma Tower.  For the little ones there are some excellent attractions such as Flying Camels, Dodgems and a Magic Wheel.  Toddlers will like the Dragon Boats and the Lightwater Express amongst other things. There are over 40 rides and attractions in total and we think this is excellent value for money too.  If you book your tickets in advance online you can save even more money and beat the queues.
