Bowland Barn

This is a beautiful place to stay.

Perfectly placed to visit many places and beautiful areas to walk. Good amount of space in the house to have one’s own time. Incredible views and so lovely having the chickens, cockerel, sheep, cows and horses so close. Fantastic en-suites with huge baths and great showers with brilliant pressure. Huge selection of board games which we really enjoyed giving us great family time. Fresh flowers in vases when we arrived which was a nice touch. Loved to spa pool in the garden and it was very well used by us. Important to note that there is limited enclosed area for dogs to run free. No terrestrial TV and apps needed to be used if we wanted to watch anything. Whilst this wasn’t a huge problem as we were very active, it is important to note. The picture showing the hoop and goal is considerably smaller than appears in the picture. It is also the only enclosed area for dogs to run. The owners were absolutely fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble. I was unwell when I arrived and their care and compassion was very appreciated.

Lovely spacious well equipped accommodation.

Hot tub lovely and warm, so much entertainment for the teens. Beautiful views and wildlife and charming hosts.

This property has everything you could wish for in a home away from home.

As there were 11 in our party it's difficult to find a place that accommodates all our needs. This property has everything from plenty of good quality cutlery and crockery to washing machine, iron and board it was brilliant and so comfortable. Only a couple of little niggles, the lights around the hot tub didn't work so it was very dark at night, the washing line was also broken but I know the owner was going to correct these. It is on a working farm so there are chickens, sheep and cows roaming around which we liked but if you have a dog that isn't well behaved that could be a problem. All the bed linen and towels were beautiful and clean, I would definitely return as the hosts are extremely friendly and helpful.

Wonderful stay , breathtaking views , kitchen well stocked and arrival gifts!

Was March radiator heating didn’t come on but we had some underfloor heating and a log burner. Cold at times ! Lights around hot tub not working but didn’t spoil our stay and would be happy to recommend. Clean ! Nice comfy beds ! Great games room

Fabulous place to stay with a large group.

Massive communal areas for eating, playing board games, relaxing etc. Hot tub was a real treat. Thank you.

Just back from 4 nights at this fabulous property.

Everything was spot on. Comfy beds thick towels a well stocked kitchen and a cosy wood burner. The hosts Phil and Clare were so easygoing and friendly. Already tried to book again for April and it’s booked up. Highly recommend for a fun family get together. Our grandsons especially enjoyed the pool table and hot tub with stunning vies.

It was brilliant, the house got extremely warm via the log burner and the owners are present however completely let you get on with everything and you wouldn’t even realise they’re there, we had a 40th birthday celebration with ten people there and every single of us couldn’t speak higher on this house, 100% recommend to stay and we will go again.

he house and surroundings were just what we were looking for and ticked all the boxes.

Due to the damp and wet weather and because of the size of the house we could not get the house warm with just a log burner. We also could not get the wet towels or clothes dry so we did request the owner to put on the heating. This did not happen so several of our party including a new born baby could not get warm. This is our only criticism as everything else was perfect. The owner gave us extra towels and said we could go and get extra wood for the log burner but having the heating over this weekend should have been a given and not needed us to make several requests.

Delightful setting with amazing views.

The property is extremely well equipped for any large group. Ideal for family groups as all ages catered for with games and play spaces. Friendly and helpful owners.

A fantastic stay and thank you so much for your hospitality.

A beautiful barn conversion with everything we could have hoped for. Comfortable and clean and very well equipped. The younger ones really liked the games both indoors and out, and seeing the animals. The adults loved the hot tub, views and BBQ area. A great place to celebrate with extended family. We hope to return!

Great place to stay, perfect for a lovely chilled out week with great access to Lancaster, Blackpool for days out, cottsge was amazing, beds comfy, pool table was amazing for the kids and kitchen was stunning, Phil and Claire were great hosts, along with the pets !

! Will definitely be back !

We all thought this was a wonderful place for a family get together.

It was very spacious and groups or individuals could enjoy the hot tub, the pool/air hockey table, a game { peaceful or raucous} or a quiet chat without feeling crowded. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped for the 'cook'. The house was warm but we lit the log fire as it looked so lovely. The bedrooms are away from the hub of the house and are very peaceful { and very comfortable} even when younger party members are being loud! We loved it and had an amazing time. must have been good as we didn't notice the weather!

We stayed at Bowland barn for my 50th birthday.

The pictures didn't do it justice it was so nice inside and there was plenty of room as there was 10 of us. The wood fire was amazing and kept us all warm. The hot tup was hot and ready to get in on arrival. The owner Phil who owned the farm allowed my grandson to walk a pony which he is still talking about 5 days later. Phil always made sure we had plenty of Wood and he was so lovely. We will be definitely going back there in the future.

Amazing place and location highly recommend will definitely be going back again in the future without question

We were a group of 9 friends and had good weather which meant.

Only 1 day rain We had no problems with the wi fi The kitchen was amazing as was games space Beds very comfortable as was the furniture Phil the owner and his wife were very friendly and helpful plenty places to visit and would definitely go again our dog loved it 8 / 15 November 2924 Anne

A fantastic house for a family holiday with plenty to keep everyone happy.

Hot tub was fabulous and our teenage boys enjoyed the Astro turf and goal. The kitchen had lovely big pots that made catering for the whole family easy especially as there were two super efficient ovens. The bedrooms were very spacious with the majority ensuite. Owner, Phil was approachable, friendly and kind. An excellent place for family fun.

Property was lovely WiFi cut off every night at 9

A beautiful property in a great location for exploring and visiting Lancaster.

Could not recommend more. Facilities were great and we had everything we needed for our stay. Couldn’t fault it in any way. Thanks to you both for making us feel welcome and we hope your lintel hasn’t fallen out yet!

We stayed here in February and although the house looked initially beautiful, it didn't really suit a mixed family.

The pool table is on a landing in the middle of all the bedrooms so extremely noisy when we had people retiring to bed early. Also it was on a balcony and there were too occasions where the ball rolled off and down to people sitting in the living room nearly missing a serious accident. The pool table collapsed twice it was only balanced on ledges not fixed properly. Also we could not drink the water at all, the kettle inside was black and badly needed descaling and the water tasted really odd. Every single one of us finished up with an really bad stomach which lasted a minimum of a week, including a pregnant member of our party and a baby, the baby had to see a doctor twice after our visit. On the plus side the beds were extremely comfy and the bathroom facilities were amazing.

Lovely well equipped property.

Owners met and showed us how to work kitchen equipment etc. The hot tub and games table a lovely addition. Not very child friendly, the enclosed area was not well enclosed the gate did not lock the wall slabs needed fixing so quite dangerous. The other outside area is quite open. Inside the owners had put on the fire and a child burnt their hand on top of it, could have done with a fire guard. The gap in the bottom of the balcony railing is too big for small children, risk of falling through, there were areas that I don’t think would comply with building regs. The steps from the small seating area into the kitchen are not wide enough and 3 of our sober party had accidents falling down these. The first step on the staircase is too high we had a few trips on that. The property is clean but would benefit from a deep clean our en-suite smelt of urine and the stone flooring needs a scrub.

This worked really well for our large family who came from different areas, what a beautiful location Phil's local knowledge was extremely helpful in finding hidden gems especially for cycling!

There for a week and so much more to see, hopefully we'll return.

Great property for all ages.

Great design and layout. Owners could not do enough for us. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Lovely considerate owners.

Beautiful barn, extremely comfortable beds, lots of hot water and spotlessly clean. Hot tub and pool table a lovely bonus. 13 of us and 2 dogs had a fabulous time making memories.

Amazing property.

Perfect for my family of 12 adults to celebrate Christmas together. Games room, kitchen with everything you could need, lovely log burner, football goals comfortable furniture and plenty of room. Thanks so much. Loved meeting the horses too.

We had a great weekend with family at this wonderful property

Hosts allowed us to go in early which was appreciated.

Barn was fantastic, as large family , plenty of large bedrooms and showers and baths. The beds are so so comfortable. Lovely fluffy quilts and bedding. Not slept like that for so long, and with it being so dark and quiet was so relaxing. Showers powerful and lots of hot water , lovely soak in bath. Plenty of games. Games table. Cooking utensils etc. . Barn very remote but in perfect location to travel to so many places like the lakes Blackpool. Etc. All only being at the most around hour away. Williamson park is a must. Phil was so helpful and around somewhere if needed him. It’ was so nice to cosy up with the wood burner when we returned home after our adventures everyday. We had Halloween party For the children whilst we were there and all had great time. It was funny watching the chickens strutting by tantalising the dogs. The only thing I would say is watch the cooker hood extractor as we all banged head on this during week We will definitely be returning again.

We loved Bowland Barn, where we celebrated our son's 40th Birthday.

A mixture of toddlers adolescents and adults were all kept entertained by everything the the barn had to offer. Our hosts were amazing and the kids loved the opportunity to see the horses and chickens. Plenty to see and do in the surrounding area too! Thanks for everything.

Absolutely loved it all of us couldn’t recommend this place more.

So peaceful, amazing views, the whole barn is beautiful with great facilities. Hot tub, bbq and pool table went down a treat! will definitely be going back for longer next time. Owners are lovely too! Thankyou so much for the loveliest weekend.

Hosts are very welcoming .

Lovely welcoming pack of wine , biscuits, milk and dog treats . Good quality appliances, crockery and utensils. Comfortable beds . The Property as add Luxuries to make your holiday perfect..

Not enough outside space pictures misleading

As only there Friday to Sunday the check in and check out times have a major effect on the stay.

Check in from 4pm and check out at 10am pretty much means its one day on the saturday. A change in these times would make a huge difference in the stay, to make it a longer stay for more of the weekend. However it was a lovely weekend, the owners were lovely and friendly. The house was well equipment and it was a very comfortable stay. Would rebook the property.

My friends and I had a wonderful stay at Bowland Barn.

The property is beautiful and clearly a lot of thought, creativity and hard work has gone into the build and layout - it's perfect for get togethers with multiple social areas and fantastic facilities. The kitchen is equipped with excellent appliances and everything you might need for cooking and BBQing. The beds are super comfortable and the surrounding area is gorgeous. The property owners were super kind and extremely accommodating - thank you so much!

Great property and ideal for a family gathering or large group of friends.

Well kitted out kitchen and ensuite bedrooms. EV charging an added bonus. Phil and Claire are on hand to keep you right. Loved our short stay.

An absolutely beautiful barn within the perfect setting.

Myself and friends from work (group of nurses) had the best weekend here. The hosts were perfect, nothing was too much trouble. The beds were amazing and comfy, kitchen to dream of with everything you could want and so much space. We will all definitely be back. Thank you so much for an amazing weekend.

Lovely place in a delightful setting.

Plenty of room for a large group - there were 12 of us - and lots of pots pans and crockery in the kitchen. Large fridge freezer helped as well. Owner has very friendly in laws who looked after us very well. Note that there are lots of steps and stairs. Fine for all of us but definitely not for those with mobility issues.

**30th Birthday** Booked as a surprise for my boyfriend for his 30th birthday, 8 adults and 2 kids ranging from 70 - 1year old.

Amazing stay!! Everyone just kept saying how beautiful the house was.. so many things to do from hot tub to games room to basketball/football at the back! Kitchen is the best for entertaining and all being together round the table. Each room was just lovely and the most comfiest beds and helped that each room upstairs had an en-suite. Was able to get a Tesco food delivery to the property which helped loads! Was greeted by Phil who was so friendly and helpful and done a quick show round with me and then basically left us to it, the stay was the best and would 100% love to come back!

Fantastic place to stay .

We were a party of 11 adults and 2 children , we stayed 4 nights but weren't ready to come home Accommodation has so much space .Highly recommend

Just back from a great long weekend at the stunning Bowland Barn to celebrate my 40th birthday and it was the perfect place to spend time with all the family (8 adults and 4 children).

The house is perfect for entertaining and surpassed my already high expectations! It is grand, rustic and cozy all at once! The views and surrounding scenery are beautiful and there’s plenty to see and do nearby. I definitely hope to return in the future.

Our stay was great fantastic place had everything required.

Only criticism was under floor heating set to 18 and locked which made house cool. We mentioned to owner who stated it warmed up with fire on! Showers amazing. Hot tub bit off putting with slightly brown water.

Brilliant stay at Bowland Barn.

Great space, facilities and views. Hosts were on site to help with any queries. We would definitely return.

Absolutely beautiful place, everything it said and more.

We had a fabulous weekend in this fantastic accommodation. A great start to our festive season.

A great barn wonderfully restored.

Very comfortable and spacious. The owners Clare and Phil are very welcoming and the added little treats, were a very nice touch.

Amazing 2 night family weekend at Bowland barn.

We stayed as a party of 12 and 2 Dogs. The property was amazing and the barn supplied everything you could need. The whole property was spotless and the beds were very comfortable. The layout of the barn gives you great social spaces but with plenty of space for everyone so never felt crowded. The hot tub, games table and sports pitch were all an added bonus. Lovely owners who left us to it but we're always on hand if we needed anything. Can't wait to stay again and would highly recommend.

The property was stunning, really spacious with plenty of facilities and activities.

The hot tub, out door area, small football pitch and pool table were great especially with the rainy weather. The hot tub could have done with more maintenance but we didn’t make the owners aware of any issues.

We had a wonderful holiday staying at Bowland Barn with a couple of negative points.

The road up to the house was in terrible state, with huge pot holes but I assume that has nothing to do with the owners. The main point was it was not suitable for disabled and I found it hard to negotiate stairs as there were no handrails for me to hold on to so I tried to stay in the same place and not to walk about due to the fear of falling down the steps. Apart from that the house was so nice and my family were the rest of the party thought the same and are already talking about hiring the property again. Everything was clean, well equipped with everything that we needed and the quality of the fixtures and fittings along with all the kitchen utensils was 1st class. The owners were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them. They were very friendly, polite and easy to talk to. For anyone wanted to stay here I would rate it 10/10 as long as you had no walking disabilities. A really lovely property well worth the stay. Thank you

The property has beautiful surroundings with many walks to go on which were perfect for our family and the dogs.

We had an amazing week, ensured we used the hot tub and log burner to make it stay very relaxing. The beds were very comfortable and we all slept very well each night. The hosts were very friendly and always a viable if we needed anything at all. I would definitely recommend the property for any families looking to relax and go on beautiful walks.

Whilst we had a lovely stay at Bowland Barn and the facilities are excellent, and Phil is very warm and affable, I was not happy that, although he was aware of an electrical issue which resulted in none of the bathroom radiators working, he hadn't had the time and opportunity to carry out any repairs.

Not only were none of the bathrooms warm, it was not possible to dry the towels. In addition the ambient temperature throughout the house created by the underfloor heating was also inadequate. Two ladies in our party were constantly cold.

Absolutely fantastic stay.

Property is wonderful with plenty of space and all facilities you could want. Spectacular views! Owners we very welcoming and always at hand if needed. But otherwise left us to it. Would highly recommend.

A wonderful property in all respects.

The accommodation was spacious and well equipped. Beds were spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The only thing that would have improved our stay is more outdoor lounge seating to enable us to sit comfortably outside on the warm summer evenings.

Stayed for a week with our family of 11 & 2 dogs in July.

Had a brilliant time & the property catered for all - our age group was 23mths - 69 years old. Phil & Claire were great - at hand if you needed anything but left us to it otherwise. The pictures on the website do not do the property justice, it is amazing, spacious & very well equipped. We all enjoyed playing with the board games - there is a cupboard full. The pool/table tennis/air hockey table was enjoyed by all & a few tournaments played. I do think it is worth mentioning that all upstairs 4 double bedrooms are all en-suite & the 2 bedrooms downstairs share a bathroom. There is also a separate W.C just off the entrance. I have not seen a property with the same amenities. We had some lovely family meals sat around the large dining table - the kitchen has everything you could think of from washing up liquid to wash powder to herbs/spices. The separate wine cooler was a big thumbs up too. Really looking forward to returning again next year. There are some lovely places to visit & we had some cracking cycle rides (hills not for the faint hearted). Would recommend to all our family & friends.

Friendly owners and nothing seemed to be too much trouble to make our stay stress free.

The views were fantastic and the house was amazing.We would definitely like to return.Thanks Phil and Claire

Amazing break for us all.

Great owners looked after us. Lovely place with amazing space and facilities

The perfect property for a family get together.

Huge open spaces inside and out. The dining table could seat us all without feeling squished and that was a huge bonus. We could happily hang out in the kitchen while food was being cooked and natter away, not to mention the benefit of two ovens and more cutlery and plates than you could possibly need in one sitting so there was never any need to continually wash and re-use. The owners are wonderful — helpful and friendly — and have thought of everything to make your stay perfect. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing family catch up at Bowland barn.

Big enough to accommodate us all, yet cosy and relaxed enough to let the kids enjoy a bit freedom and independence. Soo well equipped, from the kitchen, to the games room: to the ridiculously comfortable beds....oh and not to forget the hot tub. Really hoping to revisit in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back

Absolutely loved our stay at Bowland Barn to celebrate my 30th.

The weather was perfect. Located in a very peaceful area so you can totally switch off. Phil was spot on and around when needed! 10/10

A great place for family getaways.

Comfortable, very roomy, well laid out with a good log burner and underfloor heating. Best games room I've seen with a choice of how to use the pool table. (pool or air hockey or table tennis) Outside games area, (net ball, boules, football net) covered hot tub and a BBQ. Lovely friendly owners and nothing seemed to be too much trouble to make our stay stress free. We would definitely like to return.

Amazing property, really clean and had everything you could ask for.

Really enjoyed our stay.

We couldn't have asked for a better stay.

Everything about this house was perfect from the incredible location to the immaculate house. There was a large group of 13 of us yet not once did it feel cramped in the house. The owners were incredibly welcome and helpful. Beds were incredibly comfy. The log burner is an incredible addition in the colder months, it was insanely cosy. A few of us even fed the horses which was a lovely little added bonus. Would and will absolutely recommend here to everyone and can't wait to come back.

Amazing property, would 100% recommend and will be returning

Gorgeous barn, couldn’t have done more for us, and we had a great weekend!

Friendly, helpful owner - posted my phone charger which was left behind.

A remote location - 5 miles to nearest shop, not a problem if you plan ahead. Note, if someone has mobility issues, there are three steps up to the ground floor bedroom. A very well stocked games room. The enclosed area for dogs is small but very convenient through a kitchen door. Would be nice if the owner could fence off the hot tub area. The hot tub is top of the range! Some parts of the house were chilly (it was January), so we made use of the log-burner. We had a great time. Would we stay there again - Definitely!

We will be back.

Amazing place

The barn was beautiful, really high standard.

Loads to keep us all entertained! The kids loved the pool table. Lots of space, great to have en suites for the bedrooms. The kitchen was great, we were so impressed with the amount of plates & pots in the kitchen, plenty and brilliant quality (successfully cooked & served full Christmas dinner for 12!) scenery and setting was perfect. We’ll definitely be back and would recommend it to anyone

We had an absolutely fantastic time here for a family Christmas get together.

Plenty of space for us all, including a baby and a dog and photos don’t do the place justice. The hosts were attentive and couldn’t do enough for us, which was very much appreciated.

Lovely barn, very secluded and had everything we needed.

Crook o lune was lovely for dogs and a nice walk. We got a bit frustrated with the walks in your book as most of them was cut off by the farmers, Take them out. Oven gloves was needed? and remove the rugs in the bedrooms there not needed and are very slippery. But they are little things and all in all this is a lovely property Would stay again.

What a find!

This barn is very spacious and extremely comfortable, perfect for our much needed family get together. Everyone, from our 3 year old grand daughter to grandpa at 74 had a fabulous time. There’s plenty on site to keep everyone happy and occupied, from the games area upstairs to the hot tub, and the adjoining land, suitable for exploring and short walks. We had lovely weather for November so bbq’d, made hot dogs and drank hot chocolate together outside. Beds and bedrooms were comfortable and made for a good night’s sleep ready to start again next day! There’s everything you could possibly need to cater for a large group and seeing the whole family congregated around the enormous refectory table was truly special. Many thanks to Phil and Claire (the owners) who have put so much thought and effort into the barn, and for being so friendly and helpful. The holiday was a huge success for every one of our party. Memories were made, there was much fun and laughter and it will be talked about for some time to come.

A fabulous property, perfect for big group getaways!

Loved it Would recommend it grandchildren had a brilliant time Facilities amazing xx.

A striking location for 8 of us covering 3 generations to get together for an October holiday.

This picturesque barn conversion offered everything we could want, including 4 en-suite bedrooms and a fifth bedroom with its own dedicated bathroom opposite. Little details, like loads of plug sockets with USB power points, fast broadband, a hot-drink tap, a enormous modern fridge-freezer, an amazing large dining table, really comfortable sofas in the main lounge and snug, the all-in-one pool/air hockey/table tennis table, wonderfully comfortable beds, and an all-singing jacuzzi with glorious country views, ensured we were all entertained and comfortable. Central Lancaster just 15 mins away, Morcambe Bay 25 mins away, and Ambleside on Lake Windemere less than 60 mins away provided great days out. Our lovely hosts, Phil & Claire were extremely friendly and helpful. All in all, highly recommended.

Lovely accommodation in a beautiful location with great amenities.

Something for everyone. Made use of the outdoor seating, hot tub, games room, spacious kitchen and comfy seating areas. Bedrooms a good size and the property immaculately presented. Very welcoming host. We also arranged for our grocery shopping to be delivered to the property for our arrival which was really useful. Would highly recommend and would definitely visit again.

What a beautiful barn conversion with everything you could possibly need for a break away.

Very spacious and modern with excellent facilities. The kitchen is well stocked with all crockery, cutlery, utensils and cookware. The log burning fire and underfloor heating made the place feel very cosy. There were board games provided, pool table (converted into table tennis or air hockey) a basketball hoop, and bowls. The setting with farm land all around and river within view of the hot tub just made it the perfect place. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. Would definintely love to go back and would not hesitate to recommend this property. Thank you
