  This is a honest review of our stay, listing all the good points and negatives.

  Good House is generally clean and tidy Settee is a corner sofa with 2 electric recliners, very comfy. Kitchen is clean and tidy and modern Bedrooms are clean if a little dated in places, (sockets very old, cables not routed just curled up in corners etc) The beds are comfy, although they do squeak a little. Fee Netflix is provided and the TV is excellent. Bathroom is clean and the shower is very nice. The downstairs windows were locked, we messaged Paul and someone came round to unlock them and let some fresh air in as it was very hot inside the house. Heating is controlled by a hive thermostat in the hallway, we turned this down as the house was very warm. The 1980s gaming machine was a nice touch. A nice basket of chocolates and biscuits was waiting for us on arrival. Not so good There is an odour when you first enter the house, its not entirely unpleasant and there has been an attempt to mask the smell with an air freshener. There were no dish cloths or tea towels for doing the dishes and cleaning the counters down The curtains in the main bedroom did nothing to stop the morning light coming through at 5am. The pool table was badly levelled, we asked Paul to come and sort this, he said he would, but unfortunately, it never happened, quite disappointing, when that was a main attraction for our boys. There was only one useable pool cue, the others were either tiny or broken. The hot tub had an error message stating the filter was 23 days overdue a change. Other useful info Parking is tight and there is a birds nest in the gutter directly above, hence car was covered in bird droppings. The front door cannot be opened from the outside without a key even if it is unlocked, so don't leave the keys inside the house and let the door shut. The knife and fork drawer is hidden inside the top drawer near the oven. If these small nuances were addressed, we would gladly stay again, the house is located in a generally nice area, close to shops and buses and trams.

  On arrival it was an instant .

  .Ahhh how lovely, this is perfect !!! Easy access via the black gates for our Free Lander to park up, with plenty of space for ourselves & two Cockapoo’s to enjoy the enclosed courtyard. Which looked pretty with filled pots of flowers & shrubs, a comfy bench, a patio table/ chairs. Enjoyed our first morning eating breakfast outside in the sunshine, some afternoons too, was a nice little sun trap so made the most of the outside area when possible over a typical rainy / windy bank holiday. Entering this little gem of a find it felt warm & inviting, very clean with tasteful decor & furnishings throughout with everything provided that you could possibly need for an enjoyable, home from home comfortable stay. Good layout when taking dogs, being able to close off rooms etc. Lots of little extras, appreciated the milk & welcome treats, thank you & a Woof from Nelly & Teddy too. Especially loved the warm glow of the lighting which made relaxing of an evening feel very cosy. The night lights were an excellent idea. Great location & perfect base to explore surrounding areas which we enjoyed doing so on foot & via the frequent bus service. So close to the dog friendly beach with a short walk to a beach cafe which welcomed dogs. Gorgeous Ashton Park to walk around just five minutes away which you pass as you stroll into the busy friendly Town Centre. Enjoyed the walk along the beach front, passing the Pier & the attractions. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Mews Cottage.. even met the lovely lady who prepares the accommodation for guests, taking the opportunity to thank her too. Best wishes, Sandy & Tony.

  This was my second stay at Mews Cottage, my husband & I stayed in October 2023 with our dogs.

  This time it was a mum/daughter get away with the dogs. It was as remembered very clean & cosy, kitchen well equipped for our needs. There is a throw provided to put on the bed if needed should your dogs go on the bed, we had brought one with us on this occasion & used that to cover the bed. Close to the dog friendly North beach (5mins walk) which the dogs loved. We were lucky enough to be there for the air show which was an added bonus as this wasn’t planned. I have a Qashqai which I could park quite comfortably in the yard. The small enclosed yard is great for the dogs as it is safe & they can’t get out. We were lucky with the weather & only had a couple of rainy days. We had a couple of visits from family over the week & were able to enjoy sitting outside in the yard which is a great sun trap. It is only a 5min walk to the town with all amenities, there are a lot of dog friendly places to eat which is great. Michael is at the other end of the phone if needed. We only had one occasion to contact him just before we left & he responded quickly. We met the lady who cleans the property just before we departed, who is delightful & we had a long chat as we both originate from Manchester. All in all we had a lovely week & will definitely be back! Patricia, Lydia & Pooches

  What Can I say about this little cottage, well it's tucked away and although it nestles between larger houses the owner has made it feel very private, great little courtyard suitable for my city car Aygo parked up with ease and was able to lock the yard doors and yet plenty of space to wonder round the patio garden wihich has floral dispalys and my favourite was the rocking bench which I spent a great deal of time on sitting reading perfect , a stroll to the beach and town and nearby park which has a little cafe which you must try, the accommodation was lovely lots of plugs, space,and great deco very clean the bed is just lovely best sleeps whilst here a warm cottage lots of hot water shower amazing cooked lots of lovely meals, the town is buzzing with shops all you need and a great base for visting Blackpool and Fleetwood ect,then we came back to a wonderful little warm cosey cottage,after tea we strolled up to the pier and walked on the sandy beach perfect holiday well thought out little hide-away cottage, the town is very clean and friendly people this holiday is just what we needed and we would like to thank the owner for making it perfect best wishes Janet and Dave Whittingham

  We really enjoyed our stay!

  Hope Cottage was very comfortable and very well decorated with lovely colour schemes and home comforts. Immaculately clean and tidy. Every thing needed and more, for a short break (or longer stay). Nice touches with the bread, milk, prosecco and dog bowls and treats, much appreciated! Only additions to suggest would be provision of a sieve and a clothes horse! {known as a washing maiden in Lancs?!} For us personally, a double bed was a bit of a squeeze but it was our choice to book somewhere with a double bed but, as above in new immaculate condition. Neighbours polite and offered to be called on if required. Area lovely and quiet. One small issue with the heating was very pleasantly sorted out with a quick visit, and instructions given to reset the system if needed (which we did another couple of times during our stay). Thanks for being so prompt. Thank you for a lovely stay and we hope to visit and stay again in the future. Kind regards, Dave, Heather and Wilf Ryal : ) 24 - 28/11/23
