The Byre

Excellent, Phillip was very welcoming,a peaceful and relaxing holiday, wonderful to watch the wildlife,chickens, guinea fowl, pheasants,and rabbits in the garden.

Only two minor points, the two seater sofa was quite uncomfortable after a while,be better with armchairs,and perhaps a small fence and gate around the concrete path to stop you from walking chicken poo into the house,and enable you to have the door open in hot weather, will definitely go again, Stewart and Jenny.

We throughly enjoyed our stay at The Byre Very quite & peaceful just what we needed .

Very nice to meet Philip many thanks to his daughter leaving it so clean for us . It’s quite high up with lovely views ,we loved watching the wildlife. Rabbits Guinea Fowl chickens etc We had a very Happy time . Please share on the website Kenneth & Paulette Smith .

For us the accommodation was perfect as we had just spent over 3 months packing up our belongings ready to move to a new property, so we were looking for somewhere to totally relax so the Byre accommodation ‘fit the bill’ it had absolutely everything we needed.

The antics of the Guinea fowl ,pheasants , hens & rabbits was amusing. As the weather was very hot - luckily we had brought our own reclining chairs and a small drinks table and clip on umbrellas otherwise we would have had to stay inside as it was so hot. Because of storm damage the entrance off the main road is particularly difficult and needs some attention. 2 small helpful suggestions - a little shelf above the basin and under the mirror in the toilet would be helpful as would a small shelf in the shower to place the soap and shampoo etc.

Our first time at this little gem of a cottage.

We spent 7 nights here. It had everything you could want for a quiet, relaxing time. The hosts were very friendly and helpful yet unobtrusive. The wildlife on the doorstep( literally )is a wonderful bonus. Plenty of walks nearby , places to visit and eateries a short drive away.We'll definitely be returning to this lovely place.

Lovely and relaxed place.

Very comfortable bed Host very accommodating Highly recommended Countryside views

I had a wonderful 5-day stay at Byre Cottage in North Yorkshire.

The cottage is beautiful, cosy, and full of character, with a lovely fireplace that made the evenings especially relaxing and warm. The location is absolutely stunning, set between peaceful farmland and rolling hills, surrounded by nature and wildlife. Waking up to the fresh countryside air and quiet views each morning was truly refreshing. It’s the perfect place to relax, unwind, and enjoy the beauty of the Yorkshire countryside. I would highly recommend Byre Cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful and cosy getaway, and I would happily stay again

This was a lovely cottage.

Very clean. Well stocked with pots, pans, towels, toilet paper etc. The owners had clearly thought carefully about what a visitor may need during their stay here. I liked the provision of board games, books, plenty of firewood, my only slight niggle was the TV provided wasn't smart and didn't have an Hdmi cable so it wasn't possible to watch a streaming channel but not the end of the world. Definitely a place to stay if you want to get away from it all and have a quiet stay. We were left alone for our whole stay. We enjoyed our visit. Thank you.

The Byre, is situated in an area of peace and quiet, surrounded by woodland and fields, plus a cute chicken, rabbits, guinea fowl,and hear owls at night.

It's a spotless accommodation, with everything you may need, plus lots of hot water, and free logs which we were thankful for during our December visit. Central heating is good and allowed to alter if needed. It's a place in warmer months you could relax with lovely walks, a BBQ, as this facility is available on the patio. Owners left detailed information and believe, are very helpful. Fresh eggs can be obtained next door. Finally, it's situated for lovely countryside, and convenient for many interesting places. Also dogs would like the walks, but must stay on a lead outside the property. A very comfortable stay in many respects, including several good, efficient aids to keep property tidy which can be lacking in let's.

This place is not to be missed, our second visit to The Byre and still so impressed with the quality of the cottage.

The cleanliness is first class and all you need to do is turn up and put your feet up. The communication before,during and after the visit is amazing we really felt cared for. The team who run the place are amazing nothing is too much trouble they really do care about the visitors and are more than willing to go the extra mile to make sure your stay is the best possible experience. We will be of course looking forward to our next visit, would recommend highly.

Was really lovely, had a nice relaxing week took the dogs with us and although we couldnt let them off lead immediatly outsidr the property, there was an area nearby where we could let them run around.

Was overall a very pleasant stay. Would highly reccommend

I had a lovely stay at the Byre from arriving everything was spot-on.

It was an ideal place to stay for access to the coast or National park. Great walks on the property itself and the wildlife just the other side of the window. Friendly host what not to like. Would love to visit again.

The Byre is a lovely snug cottage.

It has everything you need, a very comfy double bed and beautiful scenery for miles. There are guinea fowl, pheasants, chickens and wild rabbits running around outside your large double glazed front door, they are very entertaining but you need to keep your dog (if you take one like we did) on a lead constantly while outside. There are areas to let them off just down the path though. We would definitely go again, the owners are very friendly and helpful, although there is a full info pack inside the cottage with everything you need to know if they aren't around. We loved it.

Comfortable and relaxing cottage,very private and more than suited our requirements.

Kristen and Rosie were lovely neighbours The accommodation was beautiful.

They had everything we needed for a full long weekend. The free range eggs was a lovely treat. But we personally think the guinea foul should really be fenced off like the chickens are so our dog could run freely and not be caged to the house. We had to harness our poodle up just to sit outside or go to the bin. So personally we didn’t think it was “dog friendly” Otherwise a lovely cottage.

The cottage was very comfortable, warm and clean.

It suited our needs

The Byre is in a lovely, quiet spot, with walks from the door and plenty of wildlife to see.

The property is comfortable, warm and supplied with fuel for the log burner. Access to the coast, historical buildings, forest trails and other places of interest are all within reasonable travel times. The owners are very welcoming. If you want a break away from the hustle and bustle, the Byre is the place to stay!

Just stayed at the byre for 3 days, we both loved the cottage!

. Great location for wildlife watching, managed to see a deer on two mornings whilst out walk the dog. Cottage is very clean, well maintained and well equipped. A great woodburner with plenty of free wood is such a nice gesture, as well as the complimentary free range eggs. There are numerous walks straight from the property. Watching the antics of the resident guinea fowl was very entertaining which and added to the relaxing nature of our stay. I'm just sorry that we couldn't stay longer.

Generally OK A bit rural with animals running around at the door We enjoyed the place but not to everyone s Cup of tea.

Shower not brilliant

We had a lovely 6 nights stay we would highly recommend a visit lovely walks nearby lovely little towns , villages ,just a quick drive away owns very helpful 5

What a fantastic time we had at the Byre.

An incredibly cosy place, Philip and Kirsten were so friendly. We wanted nice walks, and there were excellent, challenging walks from the doorstep. We could then come back to a cosy, warm, Byre to relax afterwards. Thank you for the log burner and lots of fuel. Excellent value for money, and having a dishwasher was such a treat. Thank you!

Lovely place, beautiful surroundings and peaceful.

Friendly, helpful people. Really enjoyed our stay
