“Lovely. Clean, cosy, and comfortable.”

Very relaxing. Lovely location.
Mr Kennedy September 2019

“An absolute gem of a property.”

A tastefully converted barn on a working farm. Very quiet inside. None of the farm or traffic noise penetrated this lovely very roomy cottage. Pat was very welcoming and friendly. The location is very convenient for exploring all that Yorkshire has to offer.
Mr Graham September 2019

“Lovely cottage for 2 people, with all facilities you could want.”

Quiet country are near to Harrogate with local services in Spofforth (half a mile). Good area for historic cities and buildings with York and Ripon in striking distance. Host Pat was friendly and helpful.
Mr Rutherford September 2019

“We found the accomadation exceeding well equipped and very comfortable.”

The views from the Granary was beautiful and it inhanced our holiday Good for walking in the countryside if you so desired and equally getting to places like Harrogate which is a short distance away and further afield York Our grateful thanks to Duke and Pat the owners of our accomadation and who run their own farm where the Granary is Bob and Carol
Mr Pettit July 2019

“Exellent accomadation on working farm owners Pat & Duke have got this great old granary transformed into a great holiday base with all you need for a relaxing time.”

Lovely touch of a bottle of wine and milk in fridge. There is also work going on to add two more holiday lets that i'm sure will be of the same high standard as the granary. Thank you Pat & Duke for your hospitality hopefully see you again sometime.
Mrs Edwards June 2019

“The accommodation was outstanding.”

It was so relaxing after a day out to be in such a lovely place.
Mr Mills May 2019

“The Granary was a lovely cottage, a real home from home.”

If you wanted to just stay in and retreat from the world this would be an excellent place to do it. It was very comfortable especially the settee and the bed. We wanted for nothing and it is in a good location for visiting the area as it is only 5 miles from Harrogate and 3 miles from Knaresborough and not too far from York. We would recommend this cottage to anyone.
Mr Baker May 2019

“The cottage was absolutely fantastic, it was extremely comfortable and had everything we could possible need for our week away.”

The bottle of wine left by Pat, and the milk in the fridge was a very nice touch. We loved the granary and would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in the area.
Mrs Brierley May 2019

“Wonderful place to stay, all the comforts of home with everything you could possibly need.”

A really warm welcome from the owner, friendly but not intrusive. Lots of local attractions and good places to eat out. Would definitely stay there again.
Mrs Bagworth April 2019

“Stayed for a 5 day Easter break and arrived on a chilly morning to a very warm welcome from the owner.”

The Granary was warm and spotless with everything we could possibly need including a bottle of wine on the table which was a very lovely touch ! Fantastic views from all windows and a perfect spot for sightseeing . Very quiet and a perfect away from it all bit of heaven. We had a truly wonderful stay and will certainly be returning.
Mr Wetherell March 2019

“Just perfect is the only way I can describe our stay in The Granary.”

The cleanliness, facilities and comfort were absolutely first class. Our hosts were there if we needed them but not intrusive in any way. We so enjoyed watching the red kites hunting in the field behind The Granary, and seeing the potatoes being washed was an eye opener. Oh yes, and the weather was perfect.
Mrs Hedwat March 2019

“Wonderful cottage with all home comforts.”

Everything you need . Wonderful country views . Excellent
Mr Thomson February 2019

“I have stayed in a number of Sykes Cottages and they are all great but The Granary must be high in the top league.”

It is immaculately clean and tastefully furnished, with every commodity you could possibly think of. A complimentary bottle of wine was a thoughtful touch, My first thought on walking in was: I could happily live here. I was looking for peace and quiet to do some writing and I was delighted by the word count. It was cosy and warm, though I was lucky with the weather in mid-February and turned the radiators down (or off) during the day and up again in the evenings. The principal delight was the large, superbly equipped, kitchen with its acres of work surfaces. This made cooking a pleasure and it was easy to keep clean. It actually proved to be a good place to work - and in the evenings I relaxed in the comfortable sitting room. The bed was big and comfortable. Harrogate is a short drive away, as are good supermarkets. You can go for tea at Betty's in Harrogate or enjoy Timothy Taylor's Landlord Ale in Spofforth - 4 minutes away - after visiting the castle.
Mrs Young December 2018

“The Granarry is perfectly situated for exploring the area around York, Harrogate and Ripon”
Mr Cuadra November 2018

“This is our third stay with Sykes.”

The Granary was absolutely first class. Our best holiday home yet without a doubt. The accommodation was like going from home to home, extremely spacious yet cosy at the same time. A bottle of wine and some milk were provided, both of which were appreciated. The area is perfect for visiting all the surrounding attractions. The little village itself had a lovely pub which served excellent food and a grocery shop. There are two large supermarkets within a short drive. It was interesting to watch the workings of the farm, the coming and going of the tractors and to see sheep from our windows. However it was extremely quiet inside the cottage. It was well equipped with everything we needed and more. The friendly owners live in the adjoining building. We would not hesitate to return to the Granary or to recommend Sykes Cottages.
Mr Howell October 2018

“Perfect home from home holiday accommodation in a lovely area near to Harrogate.”

Very spacious clean and well equipped unit with modern comforts. On an extremely busy working farm with beautiful countryside views; the cottage can only be described as superb and one of the best of many that we have stayed in over many years.
Mrs Warner September 2018

“Our second stay at this lovely cottage, more a barn conversion really.”

It is very well equipped with everything you need if you want to cook. Plenty crockery and a brand new oven. A welcome bottle of milk and bottle of wine from the owner Patricia who is very welcoming and has time to chat if you so want. It is well situated for local walks and nearby towns including Harrogate. Though it is a working farm it is kept extremely well and tidy, not a lot of noise either.I am sure we will return next year.
Mrs Green August 2018

“This was our second stay at the Granary and once again we were more than happy with our stay there was everything, and more, that we needed and our hosts made us extremely welcome.”

We will certainly book again next year
Mr Puetz July 2018

“Everything was perfect”
Mrs Knowles June 2018

“Beautiful accommodation, owners always available incase anything is needed!”

This is the 3rd time we’ve been there and will be back! Always relaxing to be in North Yorkshire!

“Beautiiful place to stay”

What a fabulous place this is. You arrive at the Granary and wonder what to expect inside. You go up the stairs, open the door and think you are in the TARDIS. It is so spacious. Everything is on one floor but it is really well appointed and designed and feels considerably bigger. The bed was incredibly comfortable, I slept well every night. The lounge is light and the view is stunning, just stunning. The kitchen and utility room had all we needed for the week with dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer as well as all amenities. Spofforth itself is a mile walk away, either by road or through the fields which is a lovely stroll. It is a perfect location and place to stay for a couple wanting to explore the surrounding area. Harrogate, Wetherby, Knaresborough and Ripon are all within a short drive and all worth a visit.
Mr Lethem June 2017

“Beautiful place to stay, absolutely gorgeous and the friendliest if owners”
davedonaldson December 2016

“Excellent place to stay”

We are staying here this week, visiting family in Harrogate. The Granary is an excellent place to stay, very clean and cosy, lovely and warm, great to come back to after a day out. Era comfortable and we will be coming back soon.
Janelle M April 2015

“Great place to stay near Harrogate”

We chose The Granary for its location and price but when we arrived we were blown away by the high standard of everything. The overall size, the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen and even a laundr, were all first class. Pat was a great host ensuring our stay was the best it could be. We highly recommended The Granary

“A tranquil, cosy retreat”

Stayed for a week early September. Such a sanctuary to return to after busy days. So close to such lovely towns and villages and set in beautiful countryside. Hard to believe that you are in the middle of a working farm as its so quiet and peaceful. Every detail has been thought of and many thanks to such a lovely host who is beautifully discreet but there if you need anything. Hope to stay again.

About the location

HARROGATE

Skipton 21 miles; York 21 miles.

The attractive spa town of Harrogate is famous for its acres of immaculate gardens, open spaces, elegant architecture and broad tree-lined boulevards. Once one of the most fashionable spas in Europe, the town continues to draw visitors from far and wide to its excellent shopping and restaurants and renowned conference centre. The countryside around Harrogate is outstandingly beautiful with Nidderdale and the Yorkshire Dales to the west and the North York Moors to the east. Close by there are many major attractions including Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal Water Garden (National Trust) and the historic houses of Norton Conyers and Newby Hall & Gardens. However many visitors will be more than happy to enjoy a day in the town itself - walking in the Valley Gardens followed by afternoon tea at Bettys, the town's world-famous tea rooms.
