Recent visitors to Allaker have said:

Just arrived back from a wondeful week in Allaker - love the cottage. We were spoilt with the scenery and weather (for the first few days at least). Made good use of the wood burners. Thank you for all your correspondence - went on all the walks. Hope to visit with your property again one day. (CW, April 2009)


Somewhat belated thanks for our holiday at Allaker. It was all we hoped for and more. We had a super time and if dates work out we hope to make a repeat booking next year. (CM, April 2009)


We were always going to have a special holiday as it was our honeymoon but Allaker added a dimension to that which couldn't be replicated anywhere else. We are totally smitten with the place and will never forget it. (SR, May 2009)


Thank you for making the lovely Allaker available to us once more. We are very much refreshed after our lovely break – it is always hard to get back to the grindstone after such blissful isolation! (JAK, May 2009)

 
 


Allaker was used several times for the television series "All Creatures Great and Small" (see right). James Herriot, the author, wrote that "Coverdale is wonderful because of its austere beauty"; he described walking among the meadows beside Allaker where
"the feeling of Pennine beauty was deeply satisfying".
