Guest Reviews
Better than Expected - Rooms were bigger than I expected. We liked the kitchen/dining area and the views. The location was beautiful and we had an amazing family holiday and would recommend very highly.
The Greaves Family - 25/10/2019
A dream location! We liked most the separate entertainment spaces and lots of bathrooms. 10 out of 10 for cleanlines and 10 out of 10 for the garden. We would stay again!
The Goodman's - 13/09/2019
Wonderful space for everyone - never felt crowded even when all 11 of us were sitting around the dining table for our meals. This property must have been the most wonderful family home for the owners and we were able to enjoy it for a short time. Thanks
Frake Family - 09/08/2019

The Knights - 14/09/2018
Better than expected, the house was amazing, loved the actual building how the house is decorated beautifully the views and loved the village of Thornham. We loved our stay at The Saltings we cried on arrival as we had this stay through Something to Look Forward to Charity for my mum who has Secondary Cancer.

A very enjoyable stay in a gorgeous spacious home.
Blood Party - 11/05/2018
The house was very well presented and had a great sense of space so we weren't on top of each other.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and with 3 generations including a newborn and a dog that had a lot to do with it being so comfortable.
Thanks!
