Reflection

Small but perfect for two and a few days escape.

Lovely, quiet setting and friendly owners and dogs. Pictures need updating as the setting is different but for the better I think. Set next to the water below, very private.

Really lovely peaceful place really helpful owners that were always there on hand to help with anything you need

The property is located in a beautiful and secluded area, close to a stream with lots of wildlife.

Hot tub is always lovely and the bed and bathroom were perfect. The cabin is quite small, with a microwave and electric hob for cooking, and the fridge is small, so pack light, easy to cook meals. Would recommend for a short stay.

The pod is not in the same location as the photos show, saying that it is more private now, but the outdoor space is much smaller.

It is very small but comfy, the only problem really is when you try to make something to eat, there is very little room . We took our Ninja air fryer and I honestly can't imagine being able to cook without it there. Hot tub is immaculate, just watch the steps they are a bit wobbly. I would recommend, it's an unusual place to stay for a couple of nights with a very comfy bed - but no bedside tables

The photos of the stay need to be updated as the when booked it looks open and has lots of access to sunlight which is not apparent when you get there.

. I enjoyed the privacy and quietness of the “snug corner” but would have been nice to know this before coming. One more thing to state I had to spend 10 minute's looking around to see why the WiFi was not working and how to turn on the heating just turned out nothing was plugged into the router box but other than that was lovely I enjoyed my time there

The property was very clean the staff were very helpful it’s the perfect place for a quiet getaway would definitely recommend

My wife and I stayed here for our wedding anniversary.

We fell in love with reflection. It had everything we could have needed, was clean and tidy and the bed was lovely and comfortable. We will 100% be back again. One of our favourite things about Reflection was, the hot tub, it was so relaxing sitting and listening to the birds and wildlife of an evening! Bliss! Lovely and close to Carlisle, lots to do there. Lovely local pub in the town of Longtown. Very friendly owners. Close to Gretna also.

Great stay, so comfy and cosy, only downfall was the shower floods really really quick and the door kept sliding open

On the whole our stay was lovely and comfortable for the 3 nights we stayed.

Any longer would have been annoying. just a couple of suggestions. -some sort of curtain/blind on patio doors. Once the sun came up I was awake as it was so light at 4am. -a small mirror on the wall in perhaps bedroom area as I need to dry my hair and no where to stand the bathroom mirror. -the pictures in the ad suggested that bathroom toiletries are provided, luckily we brought some. These misleading pictures should be removed. -at the cottage instructions for tv and internet say signal can be weak, however no watchable picture on tv and internet strength was so poor we never were able to use it, which was not an issue for us but may be for others. -first cottage we have ever stayed in and had to go buy washing up liquid. -I think it should be in the add that there is nowhere to hang clothes (some hooks on bedroom side of bathroom door but these are for the likes of towels or coats) or any storage so need to live out of your case during stay. For 3 night this was doable but again any longer would be annoying.

We had a great stay.

The property is lovely, in a very nice peaceful location and the Reflection Pod was nice and spacious. The Hot Tub looked over a stream which was very relaxing. It was nice to have a pod which was a bit larger and had a bedroom separate from the living room. The bathroom was a good size also and it had all the facilities you could need. The only downside was there were no toiletries and just one toilet roll - we didn't actually bring any shower gel or shampoo so this was a little disappointing. We did raise this the next day and it was down to the cleaning company but unfortunately we still didn't get any toiletries for the next evening. The only other issue was the hot tub - there was far too much chlorine which actually caused a reaction and it did spoil the stay a bit. Other than this though the hosts were lovely and it really was a nice location. I would just highly recommend the owners look into the toiletries and the Hot Tubs for any future guests.

Absolutely fabulous relaxing break

Had an amazing stay, very peaceful and relaxing.

Would definitely go again and recommend to anyone. Very comfy little cabin, clean and tidy. Lovely people who own it, helpful and friendly. 10 out of 10

Perfect little getaway!

We stayed for 3 nights and was blown away by the location. Stunning area. Unfortunately the weather wasn't on our side, but we were very excited to see the hot tub now has a shelter built over it which suited us perfectly! The pictures here really need to be updated.. it's alot more private than the photos suggest, with a thick hedge one side, separating it from the property next door, and a privacy fence enclosing the rear and the hot tub side. As you open the doors in the morning, you are greeted with a gorgeous view of a stream, and if you're lucky you may see deer up on the hill opposite. All in all, our stay was perfect. Thanks Trevor and Danielle!

Such a relaxing little getaway!

Thank you so much for having us, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The hot tub was fabulous and the beautiful countryside was so calming. IF we had to be super picky some of the photos of the outside could do with updating as unfortunately, there was no outdoor shower as in the pictures on the website. Would 100% recommend, the hosts were super lovely too, can't wait to be back!!!

Had a great time when we stayed and very welcoming only a minor thing was the fridge was a bit small and was freezing the contents

Lovely setting, private and peaceful.

It is a 'micro' lodge so be prepared for the lack of room, however, it is well equipped with crockery, utensils, tea towels, towels, washing up liquid, etc. There is a single cooking plate but would have been better getting rid of the useless breakfast bar and rejigging to fit in a proper hob. With this in mind you have to be organised with what you're doing for meals. The nearest shop is a drive away or eat out. The bed was comfortable, so looking at past reviews they have addressed this with a mattress topper. The hot tub is now fully enclosed and private, although they have given in to putting a roof over it which, for me, spoilt the experience of gazing up to the stars. My only real beef throughout the stay was the lack of WiFi, (there is wifi but you can't connect to it at all), not to sit endlessly on my phone, enjoyed the break from it, but to not have emergency contact with children if needed was a big negative.

The first thing we noticed was that the Pod had been moved from it's original site on the photo.

The site it was now situation on was enclosed with fencing which made it very private which was great however, it didn't have the shower outside which could be used to shower before and after using the Hot tub. The step into the hot tub was very unstable when getting in and out. This was probably due to the slate covering the whole surface being uneven. The Pod itself was lovely, my only criticism was that the way it was facing had no light into the living area at all. We had to put lights on all day and it still wasn't very bright. The bedroom which had a dividing wall was beautiful and light all day because it had a sky light letting the light in. The property was nice and clean and well equipped.

We really enjoyed our stay, it was very private and the grounds were beautiful, only downsides for us was there was no service in the room and there wasn’t a lot of space for us to keep our things but apart from that it was amazing.

We met the owners and they were both lovely and very welcoming to us, I would recommend this place to anybody, it was lovely.

Exquisite little micro lodge in a really rural and quiet location.

Perfect for a romantic stay away from all the hustle and bustle of normal day life. Trevor was a Gent of a host and we were left alone to enjoy the peace and tranquility

Wonderful place for a short escape from reality.

Private and intimate. Perfect

Lovely place to stay, staff and owners great.

Had a perfect stay, thank you

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and was lovely to see the new year in whilst staying in reflection.

The location was beautiful and was such a relaxing environment. Not a bad thing to say, 3 nights wasn’t long enough we didn’t want to come home. We will definitely be coming back.

We had a fab stay at the reflection we had the perfect weather to enjoy the hot tub.

The only small down fall was the mattress is un comfy & wifi is only accessible outside but that’s no big issue when your getting away from it all. We would definitely book here again. ❤️

We had a great time at reflection great location, just a few tweeks to this cabin would take it from very good to amazing .

. a new mattress is badly needed as it is so worn the springs jag through lol and maybe some blinds on the french doors to stop the light coming in morning, and possibly even the slightest bit of wifi would be ideal , ut other than these minor things its an amazing cabin with great facilities and a perfect location its rural enough for peace and quiet but a 20 min drive from the town centre we will definitely visit again thanks

Me and my husband stayed for 3 nights.

Amazing micro-cabin. Very clean and tidy. It is smaller than it looks on the pictures, we wasn't able to use the 'breakfast bar' as a small fridge in now under it. I think that area would be better used as storage and a fold down table be located under the TV as there is a storage box shelf there. Private hot tub is now completely screened off and a chimney with firewood provided. The grounds are large and you're free to walk around, and you walk out thr drive and go on some beautiful walks. As you arrive the property it can be felt that you're in someones back garden, however the grounds are so large you can completely relax and not see anyone after arrival. The owners Trevor and Danielle were fantastic and went through everything when we arrived. An added bonus they have 2 beautiful dogs that are friends and love a cuddle. If you are extremely tall or require any additional room as this is a micro cabin you may not be as comfortable as this beautiful cabin can provide. Would highly recommend staying here.

Just arrived back from a 3 night stay at Reflection for our wedding anniversary.

Had an amazing few days relaxing in the hot tub, going for country walks and snuggling up in the evening with a film. The reflection is a lovely little cosy home from home and had everything you would need for a break away. Whilst there we also enjoyed a day out to Carlisle and a trip to Gretna Green which are both nearby. Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful place, and property felt like a home away from home will hopefully be back in the near future

We have returned home from a few nights staying in this property.

First impressions… wow. Beautiful setting/scenery. The property is set above a beck, just sat outside listening to the water was so calming and relaxing. Hot tub was ready for us on arrival. Complementary bottle of fizz! The owners were so welcoming and friendly. River Esk 30 minute walk which is beautiful! We also visited Gretna Green which was only 10 minutes drive away. All in all very enjoyable stay. Zero signal though but we actually enjoyed switching off.

Me and my husband recently stayed here for our honeymoon and wow!

What a beautiful unique place! So tidy and cosy! Yeah its on the small side but it's not supposed to be a huge mansion, it was just right! Trevor and Danielle are so lovely and welcoming! We even had a little gift of a bottle of bubbly which was a lovely touch! The beds are super comfy, best few nights sleep we've ever had! I know people say they look forward to their own bed but honestly we miss this bed! The hot tub was heated for our arrival and it was amazing sat in the hot tub on the night looking into the beautiful night sky! There's no signal and poor Internet connection but we didn't care, we was there to enjoy each others company and to take in the surroundings! There was coffee, milk and sugar available for us and also hot chocolate and marshmallows to enjoy by the chimnea. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and we couldn't recommend 'reflection' enough! And we definitely want to stay again! Thank you for an amazing and memorable honeymoon!

The property was lovely for a short stay, due to its size we wouldn’t have wanted to stay longer than three nights.

It would have been better if the portable hob provided had two rings rather than just one, although there is not much room to cook anyway. We loved the hot tub and the chiminea and the little details like the outside lights. We didn’t use the decking as it was a bit green (some is expected due to the area but it did look like it hadn’t been cleaned for a while). The wifi didn’t reach Refelction, however this wasn’t a massive deal for us as we were looking for a bit of a break from the outside world. Overall we had a really lovely stay, it was comfortable and in a beautiful setting which is what we wanted.

Amazing place to stay for a vacation, the owners are extremely friendly and accommodating, they picked us up from carlsisle which was a huge relief as we were worried about our travel, they lent us their electric bikes so that we could explore and told us about interesting places to visit, couldn’t be happier with our stay there.

11/10

We had a lovely 3 night stay at reflection, the perfect break away to unwind and relax.

Everywhere was spotless and we couldn’t fault it.

Lovely place, really private and relaxing!

Perfect little getaway. Has everything you need and the hot tub was lush. Owners were really accommodating when we were running really late and explained perfectly how to get to the place. Definitely recommended!!

Had a lovely stay very relaxing would definitely stay again

Lovely stay with a lovely cabin.

Very clean and had everything we needed. Would have been better if there was a cover over the hot tub as it was very windy and cold. Also there is no blind on the french doors so it didn’t feel private as you could see the bed from outside.

Loved staying here!

So relaxing. Can't wait to visit again soon!

Really lovely welcoming owners who made it clear they were approachable, but also really respected our privacy.

A superb stay from start to end. Hidden gem.

A lovely gem for a three-night break away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

We had a lovely break staying at Reflection.

The location is great, clean and the facilities were exactly what we needed. Thanks so much!

Reflection was fantastic and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend.

Lovely little microhome, very private and an amazing decking area and hot tub. Very friendly staff and a nice remote location.

We are just back from a two night stay in ‘Reflection’.

WOW, what a wonderful place to relax and refuel. The staff and owners were incredibly welcoming and helpful and the facilities were everything we had hoped for and more. We would love to return again in the future. Thank you so much for an incredible break in paradise!

Most tranquil place I've ever visited.

"Reflection" has it all. Absolutely perfect for our honeymoon, it's very private outside including the fantastic hot tub.Will definately return someday.

Our stay was perfect from start to finish.

Everything from the lodge to the grounds exceeded our expectations and the host were brilliant! We can’t wait to return for another relaxing weekend away.

Would recommend Reflection to anyone!

Absolutely lovely place and so relaxing! Thank you

The cottage was in a really welcoming, peaceful place and the owners were very friendly.

Just 2 minute drive in to Longtown and 15 minutes from Carlisle. Would highly recommend this place if you are a couple looking for a peaceful break. Hot tub, chimenea, river on your doorstep, very private setting! Pubs and places to eat not far away at all. Tip: Jump on the train and head to Edinburgh if you want to mix things up a bit. The only reason I have marked down 1 on comfort is purely due to the fact that the bed wasn't very comfortable, could maybe do with a new mattress :) But as i said before, me and my partner would very highly recommend this place, brilliant!

Amazing stay!

Lovely, personal touch with the opportunity to use the 'the shack' to buy/borrow treats without a trip to the shop! The only recommendation would be to have a shelter for the hot tub but I think this will happen soon!

This retreat was such an amazing getaway, me and my partner thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

It was closed off with a beautiful view of the beck out the back, I would seriously recommend this to other people. The price was amazing for what we got.

Wonderful spot.

Hot tub and veranda area were lovely and it felt totally private. Really friendly greeting on arrival. Inside was cosy with good bed and shower. Could have done with a shelf in bedroom perhaps. All in all a lovely holiday.

The hoilday was fantastic the views were amazing and I would recommend

It was just perfect.

. even better and more secluded than on the pictures.. There is now a built wooden wall around the hot top and also bamboo in between each fence panel. Its just a great peaceful little place.. would definitely return.. the owners are great and go above and beyond.. Thank You

A beautiful venue, perfect for a romantic getaway and escape from the everyday.

Very private and tranquil. The owners and staff were lovely, very welcoming and friendly. The accommodation had everything needed for a micro escape.

Lovely few days spent at Reflection.

Peaceful and relaxing which is what I needed. Would definitely return and I have recommended it to friends and family.

absolutely perfect!

!!! had the best time. so relaxing.

Been all over the world.

This place is definitely one of the best places I have stayed

Just perfect timing for me to relax especially going through my Masters degree and it help me doing my dissertation with clear mind away from home.

Just perfect - would love to go back if I want to get away from everything again.

Utterly gorgeous hideaway set in beautiful surroundings with fantastic hosts.

Complete feeling of privacy, a wonderfully romantic getaway. The area itself has a great mix of nature and culture for everyone to enjoy. Highly, highly recommend!

A lovely peaceful place to stay and the most welcoming of owners.

Will definitely be back to escape from busy city life!

Reflection was amazing.

Such a lovely little space in the world. Really private so was perfect to just switch off from everything for a few days. Hot tub and lovely views of the stream were the highlight for us! Owners Danielle and Trevor were really welcoming with the additional little touch of homemade brownies and a bottle of Cava which was so appreciated. We would definitely recommend and will definitely return!

Lovely relaxing few days in wonderful surroundings

Absolutely exceeded our expectations was a beautiful place wonderful hosts so peaceful we will without a doubt be coming back soon we didn't want to come home we couldn't fault the place at all wonderful place to go for a quiet break would recommend to anyone no question that wants a quiet break

Reflections is simply lovely.

We enjoyed our break immensely and would recommend without hesitation.

I would highly recommend Reflections.

Trevor and Danielle were so friendly. All the little touches . Home made chocolate brownies on arrival and prosecco in the fridge . Hot tub was cleaned and fresh water after each visit which was a huge plus for us. All the properties were stunning . We will be back .

What a trip!

This place is absolutely beautiful and totally exceeded our expectation for our first wedding anniversary. We were made to feel so welcome by the owners and the Reflection home we stayed in was beautiful. The setting was gorgeous and little touches like the decking outside, the lights in the evening and the hot tub, we would defo come back. Thanks so much!

Reflections isn’t just a place to lay your head for a few days, as it’s name suggests it allows you to contemplate life and reflect on what is happening in your world.

Although this will send shiver down the spine of many people, we loved it. With very limited to no internet or phone signal being able to shut off from the outside world and actually relax and listen to the wildlife or the running of the Beck was absolute bliss. We will definitely be returning to Longtown.

We really loved our stay here at reflection, it's perfect for a little get away and includes everything you need!

We loved spending time in the hot tub every night & sat by the chiminea too! We reccomend the Pompei Steak house for anyone wanting to go for a nice evening meal up in town too!! The only small things I would say is there isn't much room for storage & also there were no blinds on the patio doors for when it came to night time.. but apart from that everything was amazing & we had a brill bank holiday weekend.

Absolutely beautiful place - much better than expected.

People on site extremely helpful despite the owners being away on holiday. Our only (minor) gripe was the lack of storage (non existent) so pack lightly!!! Longtown itself although not exactly walking distance is not particularly pleasant, but if you're prepared to drive or get a cab then there are plenty of other places to go...... Scotland is only 7 miles away! We'd love to come back again in the summer as it is the perfect getaway for a couple.

Reflection is perfection beautiful scenery and more than exceeded our expectations
