A lovely night away. Absolutely beautiful room and both hosts were really welcoming. Breakfast was also really nice. We would definitely recommend and would stay again.
Wonderful location. Amazing house. Owners very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Breakfast was lovely. Bed was a little small and the roll top bath is really good if you around 5ft.
Maria and Kevin are fantastic hosts and looked after us really well during our short stay.
The house if spotlessly clean, extremely comfortable and the breakfast excellent.

Wonderful stay in this beautiful property where we were made to feel welcome as soon as we arrived. Our room was fabulously decorated with many unique and quirky items to enjoy, the large bathroom was equipped with bath and shower and plenty of lovely toiletries. Lots of choice for breakfast which was plentiful and delicious would definitely recommend a stay here and hope we will return in the near future.
Our visit to Homestead was outstanding in every way. From arrival to departure, we could not have had better service and attention. The house is unique and full of history and has been loving restored to the highest of standards.
Could not recommend it more!!
Absolutely amazing! Beautiful home and room.
Maria and Kevin were fantastic hosts and cooked a lovely breakfast.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and had a great nights sleep too.
Highly recommend :)
Kevin & Maria are perfect hosts who provide everything needed for a comfortable & relaxed stay in their home oozing with character. There was a wide choice for breakfast, a hearty meal served in a private dining room. The best B&B experience we’ve had in a long time.
Kevin and Maria were friendly and welcoming. The Homestead was spotlessly clean. Super comfy bed. Perfect breakfast. Thoughtful wedding anniversary gift.
Stopped over here on toute from Scotland to south Wales. Lovely old property filled with period furnishings. Huge room, very comfortable bed. Nothing was too much trouble for Kevin and Maria. Woukd highly recommend
Thankyou to Maria & kevin for their warm welcome. The house is so beautiful, the decor outstanding. We had a really lovely 2 night stay. The breakfast choices were perfect. Made for a special break visiting our family.
The Homestead, a beautiful B&B with great character. Sits in Melling about 5 miles from Kirkby Lonsdale.
The hosts Kevin snd Maria, couldn't do enough to make our stay as memorable as possible. Kevin dropped us and picked us up from one of the local pubs, that we had booked in for ouf evening meal. Whilst Maria cooked wonderful breakfasts.
Definitely worth a visit, we are looking to book again.
We stayed overnight to break a long journey and couldn’t believe the gem we found! Kevin and Maria are excellent hosts, breakfast was superb and the room was very comfortable. Just worth a mention though that the church clock opposite does ring every hour! We loved it!
If I could give more stars I would!
Outstanding hospitality, your kindness was very much appreciated.
We have stayed in some fabulous accommodation but The Homestead is magnificent! I’ve never seen anything like it!
I’d would recommend to anybody.
Such a lovely couple who own and live there, extremely generous and very helpful.
The breakfast, facilities are unmatched in my opinion, they truly go above and beyond for their guests.
A potched egg was an English scramble egg with salmon in it far to much no key for room no accesses to property without being let in by hotelier . Friendly bath tub couldn't get legs out straight in n I'm 5foit 6 room for a petite. Bed was luxurious.
