"Absolutely beautiful cottage in an ideal location for anyone wanting peace and quiet, it is the most well equipped cottage i have ever stayed at."
Neighbours are lovely and the guy opposite was very helpful and told us the best dog walks, lovely friendly pub with great food. Immaculately clean with very comfy beds, we really didn't want to leave, unfortunately there was supposed to be a calendar in the info file for the recycling but this is not there so we missed putting it out, sorry. Cant wait to come back
Thank you for your lovely comments and excellent feedback! So glad you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future. I will reorder a recycling calendar to put in the file. Please don’t apologise! Property Owner

"Absolutely lovely stay for Christmas 2021."
We throughly enjoyed it. Gorgeous location, with nice walks. The cottage is very cosy and relaxing. The only downside was the small fridge/freezer. We'd stocked up for Christmas but couldn't fit everything in. Luckily it was cold out. It didn't damper the stay though and we would defo return!! Thank you for a lovely stay.
Thank you for the lovely feedback! However, we’re sorry that the fridge freezer wasn’t big enough for needs. It is something we hope to address. We apologise for any inconvenience and hope to welcome you back in the future! Property Owner

"We have stayed at the Old Byrne several times over the years and knew what to expect and were not disappointed."
Our only complaint was when trying to get the oven working, the clock was in some sort of edit mode, which disabled the cooker function. With no instructions for the cooker available, it took time to work out how to get it working. When you have the dish prepared and ready too coo, but cannot get the oven working, this is a real annoyance.
Overall, an enjoyable stay in comfortable surroundings.
We are sorry to hear about your difficulty in setting the digital clock on the oven. We are aware that this can be an issue if the oven has been switched off at the wall. When it’s switched back on, the clock needs to be set in order for the oven to work. There is an instruction in the blue folder explaining how to do this.
We are sorry if it caused you any inconvenience. Property Owner

"Cottage is lovely with great."
Very clean and comfortable. We had a very happy stay for our week. All the people in the village welcomed us and stopped for a chat on our daily dog walks. In a very pretty area with so much to do you won’t get bored. As others have said, upstairs bed could do with a new mattress. Otherwise everything else was perfect. Cant wait to go back.
We are sorry you found the mattress unsatisfactory. It is in fact not very old. But after a couple of reviews commenting that the bed was uncomfortable, we are now replacing both the bed and mattress. Property Owner

"An all round pleasant accommodation."
....
The neighbours are very nice.....
The upstairs bed needs to be upgraded as the mattress is thin and the bed squeaks like mad preventing sleep.
The kitchen pans were of a poor quality and not effective on a electric hob as the bases are distorted and bent.
The location was good and the surrounding area beautiful.

Relaxing log burner in a very unique barn conversion. A very comfortable family base with everything you need.

"What a lovely few days we spent with the family in this tradiontal barn."
Lovely surroundings and lots of walks. Walking distance to the Sandford Arms where we ate on an evening, lovely food. The only minus I would say about the Old Byre is that it is lacking in an en suite/ bathroom upstairs. One bathroom between a family not ideal. Nevertheless we would stay again.

"One of the best holliday cottages we have been in, set in a beautiful village, the cottage had everything we needed however we would have liked a small enclosed garden to keep our grandchild and dogs safe, but that did not detract from our holiday experience."
as the cottage more than made up for that.

"The Old Byre was a well equipped, spacious clean place."
It was in a small quaint village where the locals were friend and helpful. We will definitely come back to the Old Byre again. There was alot to do for for our children aged 2 and 6 in the surrounding towns and some beautiful walks for our dog too. We have used cottages a few times where the owners have placed stipulations where we have to clean the cottage upon departure as well as other rules which has put added stress on to our stay. This was not the case with the Old Byre, the owners seemed laid back in their information booklet and provided fantastic information and guidance on where to go and what to do in the surrounding areas. If you are looking within this area we would definitely recommend the Old Byre a home away from home!

"It was better than we expected - much more space than we imagined."
Sometimes photos can make a place look bigger - exactly the opposite in this case. Also the pub in the hamlet was a complete surprise - brilliant.

"This is the first time the family have stayed in a cottage."
We weren't disappointed,home from home. If its just a peaceful holiday its ideal but if you need to be entertained wrong location as you will have to travel. The pub about 5 mins walk is very welcoming and serves lovely meals, but for any kind of activity non provided as like darts sports t v pool or music.

"Great cottage, only let down by the really uncomfortable bed which caused daily back aches."
A little more thought could go into the furniture positioning etc. For example dressing table nowhere near a plug socket for a hairdryer. It has no garden for dogs to run in but there's a very quiet lane next to the cottage. Well equipped though and in a very handy spot for the Lakes and the Dales.
