    The accomodation itself is modern, clean, and well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The beds were comfortable par excellence, and the views from the bedroom windows are breathtaking. The outdoor area was equally impressive, with lots of space for the kids to run around, sturdy outdoor furniture and a stream flowing by; which provided a tranquil setting. Grace and John were extremely welcoming and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat in the countryside.We would love to return again!!!

    It is a beautifully converted barn: comfortable, exceptionally clean, modern, charmingly furnished and well equipped. I did not want for anything. The views and location are breathtakingly stunning. I grew up in Grindleton, where this barn is, and it was the perfect location from which to re-visit the place which I love and call home. The owners were extremely welcoming, friendly, helpful and great company, going out of their way for me who was visiting on my own. If you want wonderful walks, relaxation and wildlife (I have photos from the kitchen windows of the hares, deers, pheasant and, of course, cows and sheep) this is the perfect place. Plus, the Ribble Valley, Pendle Hill and the lovely surrounding villages and abundance of gastro pubs are a perfect backdrop to any holiday. The Ribble Valley is known as the food capital of the North! I felt like I was truly back at home, and I cannot wait to come back. Melanie

    Everything about the accommodation is quality. We took away two young children and their parents and it was ideal.

Not a place to go if you want to live the high life, but if you want serenity, magnificent views and some good pubs and restaurants nearby, you won't be able to improve on this.

It is as described - isolated, completely quiet. The single track access route was not an issue at all but c.a mile off the public road and for those wanting complete get away from it, perfect. I checked instructions given and then found the barn, and route to it on 'Google maps' .

Worth checking out on google maps or Whatthreewords with 53.917,-2.363 or printing.obtain.haven respectively for the location of barn and work backwards to the new school of Bowland High which you drive around the back of from public road. The map location on the Website is a fair bit wrong and a postcode map search in this sort of rural area just doesn't work for locating property.

    Clean and comfortable, everything you might need provided and to a high standard. Away from it all, just what we needed, just open fields and sheep for our neighbours. We loved playing with our remote controlled cars on the patio and nearby lane. We were lucky with the weather, I was even sunbathing on one of the sun loungers provided. We have been booking cottages for the last 30 years and usually only garden tables and chairs are provided so I was impressed to find the loungers there especially since they were of a very good quality. There is plenty of walks straight from the doorstep and nice places to visit near by, places to eat if you don't feel like cooking. Grace, the owner, is very friendly and eager to help if there is a problem. There was a nice little hamper left to welcome us, thank you Grace.

  • "Very well equipped property in a stunning, isolated location."

    The property enjoys views in all directions, including Pendle. The wildlife are memorable with a deer and a family of hares sighted plus an assortment of birds. Peaceful. Two generous bedrooms each with a nice view. The third bedroom is smaller and has no window as such but relies on a window in the roof for natural light. Strong WiFi. Property location makes access to many different destinations easy to visit.

  • "What a beautiful location and accommodation."

    The barn was recently renovated, combining modern comfort with traditional charme. A real heaven of peace with everything you need: comfortable bedding, strong wifi (adjustable in each room), functional bathrooms and and a perfectly equiped kitchen (we even baked muffins). And to us : what a stunning location, nesting in an intact nature - with plenty of fun neighbours to observe all day long: sheep, deer, hare, pheasant, ducks, oystercatcher and plenty more birds singing. Thank you Grace and Jon

    An amazing place to relax and get away from it all. The barn was very clean and was extremely comfortable. Excellent care and attention given to us from the owners - with a welcoming gift and baked goods. We will definitely be back.
