    Beautiful cottage one of the best I have stayed in

    Absolutely beautiful cottage, everything you need for a wonderful stay, brilliant well equipped kitchen, beautiful comfortable beds with excellent bedding, lovely relaxing garden and the hot tub was a big plus! Thank you so much

    The most charming getaway

    We stayed at Old Bell Works in February 2024 and fell in love with this charming and character filled cottage. It’s incredible cosy, homely and beautifully furnished. We whiled away the hours in the peaceful surroundings, jumped into the hot tub, and fell asleep fast in the cosiest of beds. It’s an idyllic cottage with a cosy log fire, big sofas and a huge garden, which makes it the best spot for a family break away. We took a drive up to the Lake District - an easy jaunt away in the car - and after a walk through the hills we returned to Old Bell Works for a cup of tea, time in the hot tub and family time. The hosts, Paula and Brian, are fantastic and provided us with everything we needed for our stay, including a lovely little wicker basket of goodies. It was a peaceful retreat in a place where everything has been very well thought through, from underfloor heating to large showers and blankets for movie nights - not to mention, it’s immaculate. Thank you so much for such a lovely and memorable stay. We can’t wait to come back! x

    Beautiful, luxurious cottage

    Just returned from this perfect in every possible way property. Husband and I stayed with 2 friends for 1 week of pure luxury, peaceful, tranquility. 3 king size comfortable bedrooms all with beautiful bedding, 2 bedrooms with fabulous walk in showers, 1 super king bedroom downstairs with bathroom across hallway. Decor very tastefully done and well thought out, every single thing you could think of available, even to providing robes and sliders for lovely undercover hot tub. Covered bbq area though we did not use and massive enclosed garden. Pet friendly too. Lovely log burner in lounge and under floor heating. Huge TV in lounge and TV’s in all 3 bedrooms. Fabulous fridge freezer, Huge oven and every piece of crockery; cutlery and glasses you could require. Owners kindly supplied us with goodies (tea coffee milk, crisps and biscuits) on arrival. Parking off road for 3 vehicles. Cannot rave enough about this gem of a property which is not far from Knott End where you can get the ferry to Fleetwood then a tram into Blackpool. Owners extremely obliging and helpful, thank you so much.
