The Cow Shed at Pear Tree Farm

A wonderful short break,great welcome and our dog loved morning walks with Cookie around the farm.

Cottage was clean,comfortable and well equipped. Fantastic walk in shower,great enclosed garden for a dog,well equipped kitchen and very useful utility to store all the dog paraphernalia. Really comfortable bed,slept like a log . Can't recommend highly enough.

We had a lovely week at The Cow Shed.

Sarah is an extremely helpful host with great suggestions of places to go - we had a fantastic day at Fraisthorpe beach on her recommendation. The cottage has everything you need and is extremely comfortable and clean, with a secure garden for our dog. Can also recommend The Old Butchers in Fishlake, and The Iron Horse in Moss.

This property is a real gem and one that we will be looking to stay at again.

It is beautifully furnished, very clean, comfortable and quiet. The owners were lovely and friendly and allowed our dog to have the run of their 30 acres of land, he loved it. This is one of the nicest holiday let’s we have stayed in and we would highly recommend it.

Amazing break, owner of the Cow Shed helped me with my needs.

Will return again. Fully recommend to everyone

We were made to feel very welcome at this beautiful accommodation.

A truly lovely place to stay with our dogs. A very well equipped home for our weeks stay. Thank you

The cowshed was beautiful in decoration and cleanliness.

Sarah and everyone on the farm were extremely welcoming, the whole experience was relaxing and enjoyable. Highly recommend anyone to go and stay especially if you like animals and dogs.

We had the most wonderful stay at the Old Cow Shed.

Sarah was a very kind and attentive host and the cottage was very comfortable and left nothing to be desired. Our dogs also loved it, especially the opportunity for off lead walks and playing with the resident dogs. We hope to be back soon.

This was a beautiful ,clean, well laid out , modern , comfortable barn conversion.

The design gave spacious accommodation and ease of use. The kitchen had all we needed for food preparation plus a lovely welcome hamper. The bedroom had ample storage and a comfortable bed. The provision of phone chargers ready to use in the bedroom were also very useful as was the additional toilet! The lounge area was very comfortable and I enjoyed relaxing with a jigsaw. The dogs on the farm were welcoming but not intrusive. Had the weather been warmer the outside seating would have been lovely in the morning. A very relaxing place to stay. Thank you Sarah

We were made very welcome at Pear Tree farm including our 2 dogs and the welcome pack was lovely and much appreciated.

The cow shed was lovely and had everything we needed for a week's stay. We had some lovely walks along the river Don which is very close by, and the location was a great base for the south Yorkshire area. Would definitely recommend and would happily return.

Lovely place.

Easy to find and clear instructions for checking in. Place is beautiful and had everything we needed! Had a great stay. Thank you

A lovely and well designed conversion.

Great layout and comfortably facilities. Great for dogs with fields about and 'easy' access to various canal walks. Local amenities also good. Very friendly owners and their dogs were fun as well.

What a charming cottage Sarah and Alan we’re wonderful hosts all you needed for a comfortable stay comfy bed our main requirement lovely walks to take our Jack Russel on and well behaved owners dogs who sometimes accompanied our Jack nothing to complain about here would certainly return thank you both x

We had a brilliant stay at The Cow Shed ,it is modern ,comfortable and well equipped with everything you need.

The welcome basket was a lovely touch and much appreciated. Sarah and Alan the owners were very friendly and welcoming and worried about us when we were late back one night. We will miss our daily visits from the dogs ,especially Cookie who joined us for our daily walks with our dog. We would highly recommend The Cow Shed and would love to return . It’s our favourite cottage we have ever stayed in . Thank you Sarah xx

The Cow Shed provides a peaceful and relaxing stay with a variety of attractions close by to enjoy.

. The owner’s dogs visit regularly and the welcome ack is generous.

The Cow Shed has been refurbished to a very high standard indeed.

The attention to detail by the owner, for the comfort of guests, was both impressive and very much appreciated. I particularly liked being able to leave the front door, walk across a couple of fields and then be on a tranquil and beautiful towpath, with only ducks, grazing cattle and the occasional barge for company. Very highly recommended

We enjoyed our stay and will be returning.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to The Cow Shed.

The property is as described with everything you would need to enjoy your stay. In addition the welcome pack was an added bonus as were the dogs! Sarah is a brilliant host. Many thanks

We have been very happy with our stay at the "Cow Shed".

Sarah has gone out if her way to make sure we were enjoying our holiday, very thoughtful and caring. The cottage is wonderful and being able to walk the farm has been a plus, dogs loved it. We had wished we could have stayed longer as plenty to visit in the area.

We had a very relaxing stay at The Cow Shed, it was spacious and clean.

The host was very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. On arrival we had a bottle of champagne and a hamper, nice touch. We would highly recommend this property

The Cow Shed is excellent and I can highly recommend it.

The Cow Shed is absolutely superb, spotlessly clean and very comfortably.

Sarah provided us with a lovely welcome hamper. Thank You.

Faultless!

We stayed here over Christmas and the barn was wonderful. Beautiful, with everything you could ever want and a really lovely cosy atmosphere. Hosts had decorated for Christmas and left us some festive treats on anrrival. Our dog loved playing with the farm dogs and the location was idyllic but close to local amenities and family we were visiting. Would definitely return and thank Sarah and Alan for their hospitality.

Had an amazing week at The Cow Shed it was made extra special by all the little extra gifts left for us.

Sarah was an amazing host nothing was too much trouble, we especially enjoy our daily visits from our new doggy friends especially cookie who made our week. The cottage was spotless and there was everything you could possibly need and more. We would definitely recommend here and will definitely be returning.

This cottage was beautiful inside and out.

So very comfy. And lovely place to relax. Sarah the host was very hospitable and there was nothing to much trouble for her to help us with. The cottage was well-equipped with all you would need. The bath was great. Comfy bed and a lovely sitting room and kitchen. The dogs were absolute delight. Especially Cookie greeting us each morning for our morning walk. Buddy loved it. Thank you fir letting us stay Sarah, will hopefully see you again.

The Cow Shed is an excellent property in a peaceful setting.

A very generous welcome pack was enjoyed by us and the welcome reception by the dogs was wonderful. Cookie visited us on most days and was always thereto greet us in the evening. The cottage has everything needed to make us feel comfortable and is an ideal position to visit NT, English heritage and particularly YWP. A thoroughly enjoyable holiday. Thank you.

We had a lovely last minute 4 night stay at The Cow Shed.

Everything was catered for, a well equipped kitchen, beautiful bathroom with large bath and walk in shower, very comfortable bed and open plan living room with a large television, books, jigsaws and games. Sarah, the owner, is extremely friendly and helpful and had left us some scones, homemade jam, butter and milk for our arrival, much appreciated. TheWelcome folder with information about The Cow Shed, amenities, days out etc was very helpful, I did enjoy reading the history of Pear Tree Farm. We will miss the greetings from Sarah’s dogs, especially the two labs, Cookie and Bailey, so very friendly every time we arrived back at the cottage after a day out. Even though the cow shed was on a working farm, it was very peaceful and secure. It’s in a beautiful place with walks from the doorstep, I would recommend a stay at The Cow Shed, especially if you have dogs, even if you don’t, it is perfect.

What a lovely holiday cottage.

Every modern convenience you could wish for and the facilities were exceptional and spotlessly clean. Sarah, her family, and her dogs were so friendly and Sarah was very attentive to our needs but also gave us space to enjoy our holiday. The welcome basket was a lovely touch with fresh croissants, home-made marmalade and butter, a small jug of milk, and a bottle of Prosecco provided. Would definitely stay here again and would 100% recommend the cottage to anyone. Thank you, Sarah.

The cottage was beautiful with all the amenities you could want for a week’s stay, even down to dog treats and dog towels.

The bathroom was luxurious with an amazing bath! The height of the ceilings added to the spaciousness of the living room and kitchen. When relaxing in the cottage the large tv provided brilliant viewing of the Olympics. The outside courtyard attached to the cottage was a really good size for our dogs to potter around and it was good to know they were safe and secure. The grounds of the farm gave us plenty of dog walks, one of which led us to the pretty canal where we picked blackberries to make jam. We made friends with the horses on the farm over the field fences and the farm dogs, particularly Cookie, who joined us for our daily walks. The owners couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly suggesting the best beaches to visit and helping us with parking. The Country Show in the next village was great and our dogs enjoyed taking part in the fun dog show categories. We visited York, the coast and wildlife reserves. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely rebook.

We stayed at The Cow Shed for a last minute long weekend and could not have wished for more.

We parked our car on the Friday afternoon and didn't get back in our car until we left on Monday. The location is idyllic and so accessible to lots of wonderful walks. Sarah and her family were so welcoming and had taken so much care to ensure we had the most relaxing of breaks. An absolute gem, thank you xx Karron & Paul

I loved my stay at the cow shed it was a very relaxing week, the cottage was even better than the photos.

Sarah the host was very friendly and her dogs would greet my two dogs and myself when I opened the garden gate and Sarah's dogs would go for a walk around the fields with us. The weather was beautiful all week, would definitely stay at the cow shed again.

Definitely a home from home the dogs absolutely loved it.

The the cottage is finished to a high standard very comfortable and relaxing. Would highly recommend it.

LOVE THE ANIMALS , AND THE FRESH FARM AIR.

Help was always at hand when u needed it. the dogs where always there for us to give them tit bits, loved it! If we were not so far away we would love to revisit. It may help, if there was a stool of some kind in the shower. Plus a brush. could not reach my back. so a brush would help. good luck in then future. Barry.

Had a fantastic and relaxed weekend, Sarah and all the family were lovely, all the family dog's came to greet our dogs and were very friendly The cottage was so comfortable and my mum said it was the best night sleep she'd ever had There was tea, coffee,milk butter and some home grown raspberries Would definitely recommend to anyone for a relaxing stay

We enjoyed a lovely week staying at The Cow Shed.

The cottage is spotlessly clean, very well equipped and very comfortable. We couldn’t fault it at all.. Sarah is a perfect host and there are lots of personal touches to ensure your holiday needs & comfort are met. And also those of the dog! Even providing some friends to play with! He also had a great time. The surroundings are peaceful and quite rural to make for a relaxing getaway. The cottage is well situated for exploring beautiful Yorkshire. We would have no hesitation in returning ourselves and recommending to other visitors.

Amazing place we’ve lived our stay here , a real home from home and so peaceful, loved the dogs too our dog was so pleased to have friends to play with , couldn’t recommend enough will def come back , Thankyou x

It was like home from home.

Owner very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely stay here again.

Fabulous stay in a lovely property - it really was perfect for 2 of us and our black lab Pippa.

Facilities were great - made it very easy to relax for our short stay. We stayed there as a base mainly to see family, although we did have a day out at Clumber Park - which was lovely, and thoroughly recommend. The property was peaceful, with plenty of space to take the dog for a walk, as well as an easy walk to the canal. We also thoroughly enjoyed Cookie's company frequently, she's gorgeous - loves a belly rub!! We will definitely book again if available when we next visit that part of the country.

The cottage was lovely and Sarah was an absolutely perfect host.

I visited the stables nearly every day and I was welcomed by the horses and their owners.

The cottage was perfect!

We stayed over Christmas and Sarah was very accommodating, letting us check in early so we could avoid the Christmas traffic. There was even a Christmas hamper for us on arrival with some Yorkshire goodies! The cottage itself was ideal for two adults and a dog, there is a good oven (we cooked Xmas dinner for 6 in it!) it is beautifully decorated, clean, tidy, cosy and comfortable. Our dog loved it, as the farm is enclosed, you can walk safely straight from the cottage to fields, sometimes joined by the friendly farm dogs as well. As long as you are happy running in the roads, there are some lovely running routes through the countryside too. Couldn’t recommend this beautiful spot more highly.

We had a lovely time and l would of enjoyed the local walk near the Canals so much more if l wasn’t ill.

It is a lovely relaxing & comfortable place, l recommend it to anyone, it had everything we needed for Humans and of course your Dog. Thanks for worrying about me Sarah. X

A lovely stay for any real getaway.

Sarah was a fantastic owner and it was a lovely little property that was clean and modern. A perfect escape. It was really lovely being welcomed by the dogs. Very homely setting and we really felt welcomed. Plenty of utensils at the property for cooking, nothing was missed. Very central to York, Lincoln, Doncaster and Hull if you are fancying a few City visits. Looking forward to booking again in the future.

Lovely place.

Clean and comfortable. Home from home.

We were greeted by the “free range dogs” reception committee.

One black and one yellow Labrador,!! They love the visitors to the cottage and came to see us everyday. Sarah and Allan were very welcoming and gave us information about the area and where we could get a good meal. The cottage is delightful, well designed, complete with lovely interior design features. Thank you Sarah for a restful week.

Just like home

What a great place.

Done to a high standard, and everything is provided. We had a great stay, and our dog loved it, running with his new pack :-) Sarah, the host, is lovely, and very helpful.

Excellent accommodation, modern, comfortable and clean.

Ideal for a quiet get away.

The Cow Shed is one of the best rentals we have had the pleasure to holiday in.

The attention to detail Sarah has dedicated to this property is faultless. Perfect quality furnishings and relaxing decor, super comfy large sofa's and bed, the bigest shower and a roll top bath you can actually lie down in!! Everything you could want in a rental was provided and more. A delicious cake, supplies to make refreshments and a bottle of wine was waiting to greet us, thank you Sarah and Alan for making our stay a very enjoyable one

What a fantastic stay!

Pictures look fabulous but it’s even better in real life. Sarah was so accommodating and friendly. Great location for a peaceful relaxing ‘baby moon’ before our little girl arrives in 7 weeks time. Property is a home from home, I especially enjoyed the big beautiful bath and outside area. Our dogs had a fantastic time and the farm dogs were so cute especially Cookie the black lab. Lots of lovely walks nearby especially by the canal. Fish lake Mill restaurant is a must along with the Old Butchers for lunch. Highly recommend, so much so we would have stayed an extra night however it’s that popular they were fully booked!

Absolutely beautiful cottage, amazing surroundings on a working farm.

Couldn't have asked for any more!

Home from home!

The Cow Shed was everything we wanted and needed in a weekend break. Sarah is very welcoming and incredibly knowledgeable of the area. Her dogs are amazing and we wanted to take Cookie home with us. The place is spotless and has every convenience you have at home including welcome pack with nice touches. Local pub is very welcoming too. we will be going back soon.

Just returned from a week at the Cow Shed at Pear Tree Farm.

We had a great holiday. The cottage was extremely comfortable and spacious for two people (and our border collie). We wanted a relaxing holiday and that is exactly what we got. I had worked and played in one of the top colliery bands in this area (and the country) many years ago. I left in 1982 so the holiday was partly for sentimental reasons and to renew some acquaintances. Many of the former collieries are now country parks, which is excellent if you like us have a dog and/or just want to do a fair bit of walking (e.g. Frickley Country Park). The Trans Pennine Trail is also less than half a mile from the cottage. I had never heard of this before but there is plenty about the trail on the web. The trail mostly follows canal towpaths in this area. We also went to Sandall Beat Wood, near Doncaster Racecourse. All interesting and enjoyable. The owners were very friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. The 'welcome pack' was also much appreciate on arrival. Their dogs were also friendly and it was good to see them most days. We have no hesitation in recommending the cow shed at pear tree farm.

Lovely accommodation.

A very warm welcome by Sarah and her 4 beautiful dogs. This really made it special as occupied my dog who enjoyed meeting up daily for running in the vast surrounding area together. We both enjoyed the peace and quiet and friendly welcome and will certainly be returning to carry on with the many places to visit. Fantastic for its location and amazing walks. Certainly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy the countryside and relaxation with a very friendly welcome. Looking forward to our next visit. Rich, Marilyn and Tog.

The Cow Shed has been built to a very high specification.

There is everything you need to make your stay comfortable ie. washing machine, dishwasher and a lovely big walk in shower. There was a bottle of wine, nuts, crisps and milk in the fridge - thank you Sarah. The owner has 4 dogs which are so friendly and well behaved. We are all ready planning to stay again.

We had a perfect stay.

Sarah and her family were lovely and made us feel at home. Our dog had a great time with the farm dogs who were always pleased to see us and often came on a walk around the farm with us.

A massive thank you to Sarah and her dad for the warm welcome, the gift hamper and a wonderful week.

We loved walking our dog down to the canal with the "resident dogs" who were so friendly. The house itself is finished to a high standard, clean, comfortable and everything works great. It was a lovely, relaxing week, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Absolutely amazing, so comfortable and warm, everything you could want!

Sarah was absolutely lovely and helpful for anything we needed. Plenty of space for our dog to run around and Sarah’s 3 lovely dogs had a play with ours. Plenty of things to do which Sarah formed a big booklet with all of this information. Definitely going again!

What a wonderful place to stay, everything we needed was there, Sarah was lovely greeted us when we arrived and offered any assistance if required during our stay.

The Cow Shed was beautifully done with lovely little extras. The bed was so comfortable we had really good nights sleep, lovely bathroom with great bath and separate large shower. The sofas in the lounge were large and very comfortable. Lovely little outside space, perfect for the dog. It was a perfect find Thankyou Sarah xx

Great property, wonderful spec throughout and brilliant owner.

It was really easy with our dog and would highly recommend a stay at Pear Tree Farm

The cow shed is a lovely place to stay, it has everything you need, it’s comfortable, homely and clean.

The owners are extremely nice and make you feel very welcome nothing is too much trouble. Our boxer dog Jazz had so much fun with the farms dogs and open fields for her to have early morning walks. It is very near the canal and plenty to do around the area. Thank you Sarah for the lovely nibbles and wine you left as a welcome gift. We will certainly be returning.

Sarah and the 4 dogs were very welcoming.

Very well stocked kitchen and cosy open planned living space. Bathroom was amazing. Cake on arrival and red wine were lovely touches. We will definitely be back. Thank you for a great stay. The dogs enjoyed hanging out with resident dogs down the canal. Fantastic area to explore and venture around.

Wonderful break and we were very well looked after by Stuart.

The cottage has everything you could need and practically everything has been thought of to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We will definitely be staying again.

The Cowshed is one of the best cottages we’ve stayed in.

The owner has given a great deal of thought to the interior design and the facilities are of a very high standard. Lots of thoughtful little touches to make your stay special. In a peaceful rural location on a working farm, with loads of riverside walks to nearby pubs, restaurants and historic churches on your doorstep. The owner is friendly and attentive without being at all intrusive and she has the loveliest dogs you would ever want to meet! A real home from home for a romantic / relaxing break

The cowshed cottage was a fantastic 4 night break, On arrival there is fresh bread and jam, tea and coffee in the cupboard, milk and butter in the fridge enough for your first night, our host Sarah was fantastic asked if we needed anything, checked everything was ok There's 4 dog's on the farm, very friendly our 2 loved them and we would all go on walks together The cottage is very comfortable and the bathroom with both bath and shower was great There is a booklet made up with everything you need and also menus for takeaways and pubs We would 100% recommend a visit and are hoping to visit again next year

A fantastic place to stay right on the trail.

Loved the cottage, it was very peaceful and well finished.

We had a lovely 5 day break at Cow Shed cottage with our pup Murphy.

The accommodation and surrounding grounds were beautiful. Sarah, our host made sure we had everything we needed and the family dogs were lovely. We ventured to Flamborough Head, Bridlington and Hornsea beaches that are just over an hour away. We visited the cute market town of Beverley that is very dog friendly and only 45 minutes away. Nostell Priory is just half an hour away and a good day out. The Boat Inn provides great food alongside the canal, about 8 miles away from the accommodation. The Cow Shed is perfect for a short break away.
