We had a wonderful stay in this charming barn and the owners were very welcoming. The heating was very efficient and the cottage warmed up very quickly. The kitchen was very well equipped and we appreciated all the little details that made us feel welcome.

"What a beautiful and relaxing holiday cottage, everything you need is right here, lots of things to see and visit, wish we had stayed for two weeks as still so many places and walks to do."
This is probably the best holiday cottage we have stayed with cleanliness, the kitchen being so well stocked with everything you need and lots of space to spread out and enjoy your own peace! By the end of the week we was a dab hand at the table tennis

Although unable to walk from the property due to elderly family member, there is so much to do and see in the area which are a short drive away. The Barn was warm, comfortable and a really great base. Enjoyable long weekend and hope to return.

"The Barn at Skipton was superb in every way; very spacious, clean, warm, extremely comfortable seating and beds, huge amount of crockery and cutlery and of course the views from every window were magnificent."
We were fortunate to visit in May when the lambs provided endless fascination and entertainment. Nancy, the owner, was always available if needed and has many good reasons to be proud of the holiday home she provides and cares for. It's easy to see why so many guests return so often and we look forward to returning to The Barn one day.
We enjoyed many of the local attractions, even while everything was still in partial lockdown. Harewood House and Bolton Abbey were our favourites during our first week at The Barn and there are many miles of excellent walks for all levels of interest and fitness. Our return to The Barn will allow us to take full advantage of the many attractions which had not fully opened during our week and of course to enjoy the wonderful property and kindness of the owner. Thank you Nancy.

There was so much room to live in that we unwound within minutes. The view of the sheep and cattle on the land was all you could expect from a working farm.
The barn had everything you needed to make your stay a joy,well furnished and good WiFi even sky tv and DVD player if that's your thing so give the Barn a try as I know you will be as pleased with it as ourselves.

"The location was perfect for us, as it was very easy to find on the A65 (the turning is directly off it) and close to Skipton with other areas of beauty and towns of interest such as the Dales and York within easy reach too."
The Barn itself was spotlessly clean and warm and comfortable with fabulous views from every direction, as it was elevated. We chose a week which saw Storm Ciara and Storm Dennis bring torrential wind and gales, but the Barn stayed warm and dry, so it was cosy. The kitchen was well equipped and spacious; the bathrooms were modern and immaculate and there was above average storage space throughout the Barn. There were board games and a table tennis table, which kept the children entertained. In fact, it was the table tennis that 'sold it' for the kids! The immediate surroundings of the farm were also very tidy and safe, so we had no worries about the children wandering off. Most importantly, we had a very warm welcome, with milk in the fridge and tea/coffee. We knew that if there had been any problem at all, then Nancy and Joe would have sorted it straight away. Highly recommended.
