Park Brook Dell Reviews

Had a lovely relaxing 3 week break here. Just what we needed whilst we were moving house. So peaceful as only 2 lodges on the site. The lodge itself is well equipped and the hot tub is a great addition for that extra bit of chill. The owner is friendly and helpful and on site most of the time. Would definitely recommend this property to relax and get away from it all. Really had no issues at all.

Pauline

We found the lodge and facilities to be of high quality, and we appreciated the peaceful privacy.

Amazing place to relax and unwind. Fabulous lodge with all amenities coupled with a luxurious hot tub. Superb location where wildlife replaces people. Lovely eateries within walking distance. Cant wait to go again.

Anthony

Beautiful place to stay all amenities were available, secluded for a romantic ... Beautiful place to stay all amenities were available, secluded for a romantic break and spacious for a day doing nothing, lovely owners and beautiful land

Second visit here but we hit the June heatwave , even the hot tub was hot and not in the shade. We had a very quiet, relaxing week here, it was nice to talk to Andrew, who is a very friendly person. We saw several deer, heron, owls and too many grey squirrels, who haunted the windows. Would recommend Stepping Stones pub for good food, just up A6. Hope to be back again.

Spotlessly clean & immaculately maintained, beautifully quiet and surrounded by nature & wildlife. We were undisturbed for the whole week but the owners were at the end of the phone should there have been a need. LOVED it! R&P May 2026.

If you want to relax and rest this is just the place to do it. It is quiet and peacful. The local wildlife is fun to watch.There is no one to bother you. The owner is available if anything goes wrong.

Beautiful place to stay, great location for the Lake District, and Lancaster. Would happily stay here again. We gave 4 stars because of the following. The place would really benefit from the following. Outdoor fire pit. 2 outdoor reclining chairs for sun bathing. Small hoover for indoors. Andrew the owner was ok to speak to, but not very welcoming on the phone, could of come across a little better with his guests.

THIS IS OUR SECOND TIME HERE. IT WAS AS GOOD AS THE FIRST TIME, VERY CLEAN, WELL EQUIPPED IN A BEAUTIFUL SETTING. POSITIONED IN A WOODLAND AREA, WE HAD PEACE AND QUIT, LOTS OF WILDLIFE AROUND, SQUIRRELS COME TO THE DOOR TO BE FED, DEER, HARES, PHEASANTS AND GROUSE WALKING AROUND. FANTASTIC HOT TUB. THE VILLAGE AND SURROUNDING AREA IS WELL COVERED FOR PUBS AND EATING PLACES. ALSO A GOOD SPOT TO BASE YOURSELVES TO EXPLORE LANCASHIRE AND CUMBRIA. REALLY GOOD VALUE, CAN'T RECOMMEND ENOUGH. THE OWNER IS VERY FRIENDLY. THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL BREAK, WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK AGAIN.

Enjoyed our stay. The dell is beautiful and quiet with thought being given to each cabins privacy. The hot tub felt well looked after. The bed was very comfortable. Some things we noted, the smart TV has tinny sound and a defect on the screen and cleaning of the kitchen and dusting needed a bit more attention. All in all we had a great holiday, this is a great location for walks in the Forest of Bowland.

Another peaceful stay at Park Brook Dell to relax and unwind, great place to watch all the wildlife, read and generally switch off from the fast pace of everyday life.

Fantastic property. Very remote in the countryside, a short distance to a village. Saw deer and had squirrels come up to door for feeding. Perfect retreat, will definitely be back in the future.

James Roy

An ideal place for a peaceful relaxing holiday With visits from a heron. .5 deer a tame pheasant and squirrels...the hot tub was a bonus and Andrew was very helpful checking the hot tub readout, first visit hear but will be back next year

On arriving at the property, I was initially disappointed it was a surprise for my partner she had no idea where she was going, as it didn't look like the picture on the website, even the little name plate the Dell was missing. However once inside, we were both very happy with the layout and cleanliness. We had a very pleasant and relaxing week, the hot tub was brilliant to relax and destress in each evening, and the area was so tranquil. It was also a great base for getting out and about,20mins to Lancaster, 40mins to Blackpool and Lytham St Anne's etc. Overall a very good week getting away from it all

Lovely peaceful setting. Fully equipped. Lots of wildlife including tame squirrels!

Suzanne

We had a wonderful peaceful relaxing week in the Dell ,if you want to enjoy the wildlife then this is the place to come we hand fed squirrels and pheasants and were treated to seeing a deer and two fawns grazing and a barn owl hunting in the woods. It is a short walk to the Applestore cafe and from there you can walk to the famous Nicky Nook.The cabin had all you needed for a self catering holiday the bed was very comfortable ,and the hot tub was amazing

Had an amazing 3 day break celebrating my husbands birthday. Beautiful location shared every morning with wildlife. Used the hot tub a few times perfect! Very friendly host who we met once to purchase extra fire logs. Only downfall was we were unable to use the oven as gas man was expected never arrived during our visit would definitely return

Very comfortable clean holiday cottage. Private and quiet. Warm and amply stocked only down side was no pub in village but not owners fault . Would rent again

Delia Wendy

Second visit to Park Brook. We love it there the sense of peace is great. It is surrounded by trees and grass. You are only just aware of the other cabin. When we had a problem it was sorted out immediately. There are lovely walks and villages around.

Gregory

Lovely setting secluded location peaceful and the lodge is very well equipped and well maintained. We enjoyed the hot tub after a long walk. would recommend staying again in the future. Thank you

An excellent place to stay to relax and unwind. Andy popped over every other day to check the hot tub and that everything was ok. Daily visits from pheasants and cheeky squirrels was great although had to be careful opening the doors as the squirrels wanted to come in. Last couple of days was spoilt by the weather but would still highly recommend Thanks for a lovely stay Martin & Jo

Lovely clean ,comfortable,peaceful holiday let. Perfect place to relax and unwind. We didnt have the best week weather wise so enjoyed the many visits from the resident squirrels,Pheasants, oyster catchers,hare and dear. Hot tub was perfect after days out visiting the lake district and the coast. Would definitely make a return visit when considering the area for another holiday.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Dell. Great chalet, location and area. So many enjoyable walks straight from the door. Hope to return. Many thanks. David.

Lovely cottage in a Dell, wildlife in abundance, would definitely recommend. Thank You.

We had an amazing time at the Dell the lodge was superb so cosy and warm with beautiful views across the countryside We adored all the wildlife that came to our lodge even got to hand feed a female pheasant, we saw Deer pheasants hares squirrels numerous birds even a red spotted woodpecker and a stoat in the brook alongside our lodge. There's 2 lodges on site but both are extremely private which was lovely .Lots of places to go to all within a short driving distance the barn in the village does great breakfasts and omg the cakes are amazing Would I go back here ? Absolutely in a heart beat it was amazing

Very peaceful place to stay, the wildlife was great, its about a 40 minute walk into Scorton and would very highly recommend The Barn for food and a drink.

Christine

Lovely location with abundant wildlife. Great base for exploring the Forest of Bowland. Would definitely recommend, and will be booking again.

Lovely cabin in a very quiet location. Loved watching the wildlife.

Lisa Diane

Very peaceful place to stay, the wildlife was great, its about a 40 minute walk into Scorton and would very highly recommend The Barn for food and a drink.

I loved my stay here, myself and my girlfriend couldnt have had a nicer week away, the perfect getaway, the wildlife there is amazing, Im going to miss feeding the squirrels monkey nuts every morning, and seing all the pheasants. The hot tub was lovely. The host was also very kind when needing logs brought them up straight away, 1010 week away, I will defo be booking again

Such a relaxing place couldnt find a thing to complain about. This is the second time we have had a wonderful stay and we will be back again. Hot tub was amazing thank you again.

Collette

We loved our stay at Park Brook Dell. Theres a few cheeky squirrels that let you know theyd like feeding, lots of pheasants that come right up to the lodge, plenty of different birds will come if you put food down for them. We were even lucky enough to see a deer one morning. Its so peaceful with stunning surroundings, the lodge is equipped with everything you need. Plenty of nice walks near by too and places to eat out if you choose. Take plenty of bird nuts and seed and the wildlife will be right outside your door. Highly recommended, we will definitely be retuning.

Tracey

Fantastic holiday just as advertised will be recommending to family and friends. Would definitely go back

This was our 2nd visit in as little as 6 weeks as we absolutely loved it for the wildlife and the hot tub. Theres a cheeky little squirrel who peers through the patio doors every morning asking for his breakfast which really makes my day, a few more usually join him. On the first morning we saw a deer right outside the bedroom window and saw 3 altogether along with over a dozen pheasants, numerous birds Inc blue tits, great tits and a robin, its so relaxing with the stream running by the side of the hot tub. Weve already booked in to go again while we were still there, Id definitely recommend it if you want a relaxing holiday as its surrounded by trees and grass and close by to a little village that has some fantastic eateries and not far to commute to other places, we love it

Could do with checking the finer details ie cobwebs on ceilings and dust etc under sofa, pencil marks on ceiling and screw holes need repainting. In a pleasant location and nice and peaceful. Welcome basket of a few items would also be a nice touch . Overall a nice place but could do easily be better for the money.

Lovely location with the calm sound of the brook. Well equipped, comfortable chalet the wood burner made for a nice atmosphere too. The hot tub was great once we had evicted a couple of bugs. We would definitely stay here again.

Nicola

We had a fab time at Park Brook Dell. The property was beautifully clean with all we could wish for. Comfy bed, lovely shower, and the hot tub was the icing on the cake, we were in there every night without fail. We felt very secluded and private with only the bids, pheasants and squirrels visiting. . If we could make one suggestion it would be for a couple of sun loungerbeds along lovely outdoor area, but that is a tiny tiny thing. We had such a nice time we are booking up again

Angela

GREAT stay our 2nd in 8 months. Lovely accommodation and location. The visiting wildlife is particularly fun especially the very cheeky squirrels ! Thankyou x
