The barn is spacious and well-equipped. Considering it is next to a quiet road, the stone wall makes the property private. There is ample parking and you get used to the sixteen steps down to the ground floor of the barn. There are endless walks from the property and in the surrounding area where the views are stunning.

This cottage is spacious, clean, well equipped and lovely and warm! Located in walking distance of Malham Cove, with countless walks from the doorstep, this is a perfect place to explore North Yorkshire. Having stayed in many country cottages this one definitely ranks amongst the best!

This property is well equipped and the beds really comfortable. Unfortunately we found the sofas rather uncomfortable. The location is excellent for exploring pretty villages and towns and there are great walks everywhere! The downside is the garden doesn't get any sun after lunchtime but you can sit on a seat just outside the garden with beautifulRead more views! The farm shop and tearoom next door is also fantastic.

Lovely and warm in the house when we arrived and very clean and comfortable. Well equipped and great farm Thank you to the owners for actually putting up well fitting black out curtains to ensure a good nights sleep and for being the only place we have ever stayed in (for over 25yrs) that has ever put double duvets on the single beds. Our son sleptRead more much better for it. Lovely places to visit nearby and if you drive the back roads to Seatle, look out for Highland Cows on the road ! Brilliant. Hide
