Barn Cottage

A lovely comfortable cottage in a quiet peaceful village.

Ideal location for touring the beautiful Yorkshire Dales.

It was a very peaceful location and a lovely outlook.

Lovely comfy beds and we had everything we needed in the kitchen. We also loved the beautiful small garden packed with so many lovely plants to look at while sitting outside, loved it thank you.

We LOVED Barn Cottage.

Everything was perfect - from comfort to location everything was perfect.

Comfy clean cosy beautiful cottage with absolutely stunning views all you need home from home for a relaxing stay loved the large window seat enjoying the views Neighbours and villagers all friendly and helpful , highly recommend pub at end of village great food very friendly.

Also Campbells in leyburn grocery store butchery well worth a visit Lots local walks west Burton falls very close and Aysgarth falls a must visit particularly lower falls go in late afternoon or evening as parking is much more available less . A lovely break we were fortunate to have lovely weather too.

Located in a lovely small village.

Really quiet. Lots of walking in the area. The accommodation was clean comfortable and spacious. If I go to this part of the Dales again l would stay here again.

Lovely cottage in a tranquil spot, peaceful hamlet within walking distance of 3 pubs.

The bedroom is a massive, triple aspect haven with huge, comfortable bed. The wood burner is great and window seat view is wonderful! The spiral staircase may be an issue for young and old. We visited Grassington and Castle Bolton, but mainly enjoyed the walks from the door to West Burton, Aysgarth Falls and over the fells! Stunning scenery in a beautiful location.

Beautiful cottage!

We were a family of three adults and there was plenty of room, bedrooms are very well sized with wonderful views from the master bedroom and gorgeous garden view from the second bedroom. The whole house was immaculate throughout. Well sized kitchen with everything we needed. The local area is lovely, quiet and very pretty.

Excellent cottage, clean & tidy, comfortable, everything we needed, warm and quiet.

Helpful neighbour, friendly village and lovely area. Local pub on main road, highly recommended, great beer food big portions and home made, John the owner and staff very welcoming. Have to go there. Not an area to have car trouble because most local garages not interested, be warned and regular buses few and far between. Overall we loved our stay at Barn Cottage even though we had car troubles.

A great cottage which had everything I needed.

My only issue was that a more accurate list of what would be available would have been helpful as I took things that I didn't think would be available but they were. Also, it sounded like there was a pub and shop within walking distance but that's not the case, it'd be quite a walk along roads with no footpaths or lights.

We had a great stay at Barn Cottage.

It has everything you need for a holiday including plenty of books with local walks which we made good use of. It has a huge comfy bed, very powerful shower, well equipped kitchen and comfy sofas. A few minutes walk to The Street Head Inn which serves great food (beware - very large portions!). We would happily return.

A clean, cosy and comfortable cottage in a beautiful location.

A neat fit perhaps for 4 people but ideal for the two of us. Good weather and an abundance of local walking with only a short distance to travel to the market town of Hawes, Bolton Castle and Aysgarth Falls - all well worth visiting.

Fabulous cottage in a lovely village close to great places in the Dales to explore.

The cottage was so clean, comfortable and well equipped. We especially loved the window out front you could sit in and enjoy the view. The Steet Head Inn was in walking distance for a brilliant evening meal. Thank you for a special time.

Excellent cottage.

Very comfortable, clean, had everything we needed. Far enough from the main road to be quiet, but close enough that getting places wasn't a problem. Enjoyed sitting out in the sheltered back garden. The Street Head Inn 5 minutes walk away was a real bonus, excellent Sunday Lunch (booking recommended).

We really enjoyed our stay in Barn Cottage.

It was well-equipped, warm and very comfortable. Great location in this very beautiful part of the Yorkshire Dales, with plenty of local walks, such as the lovely village of West Burton, Walden Beck and the Aysgarth Falls on the doorstep. The helpful owners were easy to get in touch with. We would love to come back sometime in the near future.

Barn cottage was warm and cozy, much needed in the bitterly cold weather, comfortably furnished throughout with lovely views.

The kitchen was well equipped, there was clear information of how everything worked. The location is well placed to explore the area, peaceful, lots of leaflets to help. This hamlet is silent at night, the bed so very comfortable. Interesting games to play, thanks for milk tea and coffee on arrival. Campbells store recommended in Leyburn. Think you thought of everything - easy to recommend.

We had a fantastic time at barn cottage, everything you need is there , the owners have gone to long lengths to make this cottage very cosy and warm welcoming, the cottage is set in beautiful surroundings with lots to do and explore .

We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone . Thank you so much for our stay and we hope to return

We had a wonderful time at this cottage, it is really cosy and clean.

Christmas tree up made it feel Christmasy. The location is perfect for walking from the doorstep. Weather was great so did lots of walking from the books and maps provided. The local pub does outstanding fresh cooked food, booking in advance is advised. We will definitely return.

We were at the cottage late October.

The area was quiet and had a small amount of pretty cottages. The cottage was warm so we didn't use the log burner. The kitchen had all the usual cooking utensils. We loved our stay and hope to go back again next year. The only thing that was bothering us was that the knives! They were very blunt for chopping.

Barn cottage is set in a beautiful location.

Rural, quiet but not isolated. Good for local walks and exploring the Dales. Also good for trips to Harrogate, York and Leeds. The cottage is comfortable, quite spacious and has lots of windows. This makes it very suitable for staying in autumn or winter too. It’s also good for watching wildlife. Even a barn owl visited us.

A beautiful holiday cottage; couldn’t fault it at all.

Very nicely decorated and furnished, well equipped, fantastic views, lovely pub within walking distance and a good base for exploring the Dales. Highly recommend.

Our second stay in Barn Cottage, a lovely, well maintained and comfy place to have a break.

Dagmar, the owner, does all she can to make sure you leave with good memories. The surrounding area is beautiful with lots to see and do. Check out West Burton waterfall and do try a meal at the Street Head Inn. All in all, wonderful!

Really enjoyed our stay at Barn Cottage.

Plenty to do in the surrounding area (the waterfall at nearby West Burton is a must) and it really is wonderfully quiet. The cottage has everything you need. It was clean and the beds were comfortable. We loved the swallows perched on the telephone line to the cottage!

We had a lovely stay at Barn Cottage.

Wonderful peaceful location, but within easy reach of the many attractions of the Yorkshire Dales. The cottage was comfortable, spotlessly clean and well equipped. We particularly liked the window seat and the pretty secluded garden. The owners had thoughtfully provided a welcome pack which not only gave information about the area, but also how the appliances worked which was useful. Definitely recommend Barn Cottage and hope to visit again.

Barn Cottage was lovely, everything we needed was provided including the weather!

Wonderful break and looking forward to returning.

Excellent large master bedroom with extremely comfortable bed.

Loved the window seat in the lounge and position of dining table, both giving great views over the valley. Cottage nice and warm on arrival, much appreciated as weather was cold. Kitchen adequate but Rayburn (not in use) takes up a lot of room making exit by back door tight. Useful boot room at rear entrance.

Our fifth visit, we love Barn Cottage and the whole area.

The cottage is cosy and well-equipped, with a great bathroom & very comfortable bed. We liked the larger tv with free sat &the Wi-Fi worked well. Lots to see & do & some great food options in the local area.

In the 55 years we have stayed in holiday cottages Barn Cottage is one of the best.

All modern facilities but retaining the timeless feel of rural North Yorkshire. Weather was dreadful but we were warm inside. The visit was to celebrate my sister’s 80th birthday, she had a great time. Lovely meal at the Street Head as always. Thank you.

Lovely comfortable place to stay, great walking despite very mixed weather conditions, and enjoyed local pubs in West Burton, Newbiggin ( Street Head Inn) and West Wilton ( the Fox)…

We had a lovely stay, the cottage was very clean and comfortable.

We had a very relaxing holiday. The owners had put us a Christmas tree up which was lovely. We will return again soon.

After a horrendous drive through storm Babette it was great to arrive to a lovely warm and comfortable cottage and soon settled in and got the log burner going.

Brilliant shower. Grill on oven hit and miss. A visitor book would have been nice. The information sheets were helpful. Location of the cottage was wonderful and all in all it is a good choice for anyone visiting Wensleydale. Nearby Street Head Inn very good.

Lovely cottage, lovely views very quiet and very relaxing

Barn Cottage is well maintained and very clean.

It had everything we needed. The cottage is light and airy and has some original features. We had a great restful and comfortable holiday. The location is excellent for exploring the Yorkshire Dales and for those who enjoy walking there are walks from the door.

A well equipped cottage in the delightful village of Newbiggin.

Being a village with no through road made it an attractive stay with little traffic.Walking distance was a very good pub and at a sllightly larger walking distance, about 2 miles, was the beautiful village of West Burton, with a shop and pub. The farm shop on the road to leyburn was a superb find too.We travelled around a lot but decided we had made the best choice of villages to stay in the area.

Absolutely loved Barn Cottage.

It was a home from home. Spotlessly clean and the best nights sleep I’ve had in ages. It’s a lovely position within the village with walks from the door. Loved the garden which is pretty and private. Would definitely recommend and I will return.

Lovely cottage in a great location.

It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Very clean. Dagmar the owner was very welcoming and the neighbours were lovely. There are walks from the cottage and a great pub just up the road. No complaints and we would return. Dagmar, I just need to explain that we put the recycling out but it was not collected. Why they missed it we do not know.

We had a really comfortable and enjoyable stay at Barn Cottage.

The facilities that were in place were first class and there was nothing more that we needed. Absolutely perfect!! Also perfect for visiting Swaledale and the views from the cottage were beautiful. Thank you!

A comfortable & cosy cottage.

We love the sitting room with the wood burner. Easy to get to lots of places & activities, also a lovely relaxing place to stay.

This was our second visit to Barn Cottage and we enjoyed it as much as last time.

It is warm, comfortable and well equipped. The window seat is a great place to sit, read and make the most of the countryside views. Although in a very quiet location there are a variety of good walks from the door and you are a short drive from some of the more well-known Dales villages. We would return.

This is a very nice cottage in lots of aspects .

It was in a lovely quiet location with ample room for parking . The beds were comfortable and it was very clean . The one room that let it down was the kitchen . The owners had decided not to use the AGA ( don’t really blame them it must be very expensive) but compared to the rest of the cottage which was lovely and warm it made it cold . There is a cooker which was fine and it did warm the kitchen up when in use . I wouldn’t really recommend it for 2 couples as there is no wardrobe space in the second bedroom. There were 2 of us and it was great . There is a fabulous pub just down the road and walks from your door . The kitchen hasn’t really put us off as we had a lovely time and would go back .

The cottage was perfect.

It kept its traditional interior with modern facilities, just what we were looking for. The shower was fantastic, the bed extremely comfortable and all rooms were spacious. The location was perfect also. A five minute walk to the nearest pub and signposted walks outside the cottage. The pub serves fantastic food and a variety of beverages. The owner and staff are very friendly and it has an open fire which was a bonus. The cottage is ideally located for beautiful scenic walks and within driving distance of most places of interest. Fantastic 360 degree views from the cottage, just made the whole break relaxing.

We liked the cottage and enjoyed the space and the comfortable furniture.

The cottage is nicely warm and suitable for autumn/winter stays. We were able to get our two eBikes into the shed which was good as sometimes the promised 'lockable bike storage' is unusable for adult bikes. In summary we would stay again.

Lovely place, very clean.

Good facilities. We find it very relaxing & comfortable. Our second visit - we will be back.

It’s a very comfortable cottage and the views are great.

We had a wonderful time.

This cottage is extremely clean, no clutter and gadgets to make it appear quirky.

A credit to the cleaner. Location perfect, neighbours very friendly with a lovely vibe. Only one problem for us was lack of space to sit outside due to lack of garden space. Maybe if back patio area was cleared from some of the shrubs it would allow more comfort. As it was too many flys and insects mithering you. Beds extremely comfortable with good views from the arched window in the sitting room.

Lovely Quiet cottage,Great Location,well equipped and comfortable with glorious views of the countryside with plenty of amenities near hand what more could you ask for.

(The side garden could do with a wee tidy up)

Lovely comfortable, quiet cottage with fantastic views.

Very good centre for visiting Leyburn, Hawes, Richmond, Castle Bolton etc. Also great walks nearby in beautiful countryside.

Wonderful cottage in a stunning location,so peaceful and tranquil,very well equipped with everything you need for a great holiday,the wood burner was great for chilly evenings,hope to return very soon.

Rob David & Cherryll.

We really enjoyed our stay at Barn Cottage.

It is a comfortable and well equipped cottage with high quality furnishings and bedding. The window seat is a great place to sit and look at the views of open countryside. There are walks from the door so we hardly used the car during our stay. The beautiful spring weather added to our enjoyment of the holiday. We are planning on booking a stay here at the same time next year.

Very comfortable and well equipped cottage in a beautiful area.

Thanks to Dagmar for providing us with the facilities to have a great holiday.

Given its advertised as adults only, the advert should maybe note that there is no real cupboard space in the smaller bedroom.

Barn Cottage is very clean, warm and quiet.

We definitely recommend this cottage for anyone looking for a quiet, comfortable getaway.

A very comfortable cottage, ideal for two persons.

Very clean and covid safe. We never met our host, Dagmar, but she had provided everything you would need in the way of kitchen equipement, extra blankets etc. Ideally situated for access to many of the Dales, especially Swaledale, Wensleydale, Bishopsdale and Upper Wharfedale. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely cottage.

Very clean and spacious, nice decor (traditional without being twee). Nice views from a big window downstairs over fields, easy walking distance to a reasonable pub (didn't try their food, so can't comment on that). The location is good, all sorts of things within a reasonable drive. Owner was really helpful - had a call just before to say the boiler had broken and refunding two days straight away. Boiler was fixed just before we arrived on the Friday (but might have needed people in to fix it on the Saturday). These things happen, and what you want is somebody on it fast.

Nice cottage in a small village.

Great view from the big window and peaceful. The settees were a bit dirty and did smell a little but rest was clean. Could do with a bigger garden area for a bigger table and chairs for sunny evening to sit out. Would stay there again. Great location to explore the Dales.

Barn cottage is a very comfortable holiday home.

We had issues with the hot water but the owner was very helpful in trying to sort it out. The location is beautiful as it is surrounded by wonderful scenery. You can walk from the door and the local pub is 10 minutes walk away

Disappointed re garden.

Useable space very small. Cottage for 4 two tiny tables with two seats each. Not possible to sit outside together. Constant plentiful hot water after owner came to sort it out. Water heater VERY noisy. Minimal prep space in kitchen. Very comfy beds,

Barn Cottage is superbly appointed and in a delightful location.

If you want peace and quiet, this is the place.

Peace and tranquility.

Beautiful views and excellent walking. Cottage was of a very high standard.

The cottage was lovely and clean, courtesy call from the owners to check we were comfortable which was a nice touch.

Lovely comfortable well equipped cottage in a fantastic location, quiet with beautiful views & walks from the door but within easy reach of local shops & other lovely places.

Superbly clean with good Covid care. Would definitely go there again. Happy for you to publish our feedback but anonymously please Thank you Jacky Bateman

The cottage was lovely and spotlessly clean it made us feel very comfortable and safe with regards especially to measures around the cover d virus .

In this day and age would have preferred a larger and more up to date TV and also to be put on a higher table so the screen could be seen from the dining table and not hidden behind the settee arm.

Otherwise all facilities very good and sensible.

We were really impressed with the care taken by Dagmar to make our holiday safe and comfortable.

We had a call before we arrived to explain what we can expect. The cottage was very clean and tidy and located in a lovely quiet hamlet.

The cottage is fantastic.

Loved the spacious rooms. Loads of storage space & coat hooks - something that so many properties lack these days. Perfect base for us doing walking and cycling every day. Location is also fantastic as we love to be able to get about locally without moving our van. Also really loved the Dales as a whole and feel as if we’ve only just scratched the surface of places to explore in the area. The local pub was excellent - The Streethead Inn. Great service with loads of outdoor seating and a covered area with log burner. Real ales, good wine and proper pub grub. Thanks for a fantastic week! The Sykes Cottages service should also get a mention as this has become our go-to site when we’re looking for somewhere to stay on a uk holiday

The cottage was very comfortable and very clean.

We felt completely confident that all recommendations in regard to Covid 19 had been adhered to. There was everything we could have needed, the view was fabulous. It's in a beautiful place, and easy to get around the Dales.

If you want a holiday that takes you away from the hustle and bustle of life then a week in Barn Cottage is the perfect option.

Beautiful location with stunning views across Bishopdale, the cottage has everything you need, whatever the weather. Inside you’ll find really well furnished, well thought out spotlessly clean rooms. The window seat in the living room is perfect for whiling away the time during the day with the focus changing to the wood burner once darkness falls. Upstairs is a big master bedroom with a really comfortable super king size bed, a second bedroom and bathroom. Shops in nearby West Burton and Aysgarth have essentials but with Campbell’s just 7 miles away in Leyburn you aren’t too far away from a great selection of food and drink. The butcher in West Burton has the most amazing, locally reared lamb and definitely worth seeking out. Some great walks on the doorstep and with Wensleydale just over the hill there is plenty to keep you busy within a short drive.

We met the owners for the first time, on this holiday, because of a problem that cropped up.

They were very prompt and very helpful. We, hopefully, will be back again, (this was our fourth time staying,) in the autumn.

House was very clean and cosy.

Owners were very helpful and check-in and out was very easy. The location is great for getting around Yorkshire and we had a wonderful holiday!

Barn Cottage was the perfect location for our first visit to the Dales.

Surrounded by beautiful scenery with lovely walks, a great pub 5 mins away and close to Leyburn where we happily spent time exploring local shops and cafes. Just perfect!

Barn Cottage was clean, comfortable, well equipped and in such a beautiful, peaceful location.

We particularly enjoyed the spectacular views from the large window seat in the living room and coming back to the cosy multi fuel stove in the evening. The king size bed was super luxurious ensuring a fantastic night’s sleep. There were gorgeous walks from the doorstep, storage for our bikes and a couple of pubs nearby for food and drinks. It was perfect.

Quiet location, convenient for all the attractions of the dales.

A relaxing break.

A lovely little cottage that's a great base for the dales.

Trips out to Aysgarth, Leyburn, Hawes, Thorp Perrow, the forbidden corner all easy from here.

We like this cottage a lot.

Spacious living area, spacious bedroom and bathroom, and cute outside space. Well equipped, simple style (and no fussy ornaments/owners junk that is all too common in rented cottages)

Lovely location for walking in the Dalws even from the doorstep of the cottage.

Lots to do and see in the locality. We cycled the off road Swaledale trail from Reeth to Keld. Beautiful and varied countryside and views but a bit rough from Gunnerside to Keld so returned by the tarmacked road which was quiet. Leyburn good for groceries and Richmond worth a visit - lots of shops and cafes.

The holiday cottage was lovely in a beautiful quiet location.

It was clean and comfortable all you could want in a holiday cottage.

Last second booking, both Sykes and owner very accomodating to ensure we had a smooth trouble free weekend.

Barn Cottage is very comfortable and relaxing with walks from the doorstep. A definite 'get away from it all' place to stay and enjoy. I hope to be back for a longer period and with luck , rainy days so i can sit in the arched windows reading a good book with the dale as a backdrop. Thanks to everyone involved you did a great job for us

This is a lovely cottage in a quiet village with country walks on your doorstep.

The only disappointment was not being able to use the rayburn range for cooking,and it did't heat the rest of the house very well.

The woodburning stove was essential as the weather was a bit chilly.Apart from that the cottage was comfortable and in a lovely position.

We had a great week at Barn Cottage.

The window seat and fire were the highlight. Lots of good walks and great countryside on your doorstep, we also went to Forbidden Corner. It was clean, well equip , nice furnishings with great views. We were sad to leave the peace and tranquillity.

Lovely place to stay in a nice village.

Good views from the cottage. Nice walks from the door. Well equipped cottage. Good pub within walking distance.

We loved the wood burning stove and it was great that wood was provided for us.

The Raeburn stove was warm and meant the kitchen was really cosy.

This cottage is immaculate and so cosy.

The location is ideal central for lots of places to visit A massage thank you to the owners we certainly will be back...

Barn Cottage is beautiful.

Ideal for four adults. We stayed for three nights to celebrate my husbands 50th Birthday. Everything was there that we could possibly need. The area is absolutely gorgeous, even if the weather isn't great. Only negative would be that you need to be aware that there is not a supply of coal, logs and kindling for the fire. Just a starter pack and the only place to get coal is in Leyburn. Would have been good to know this before we arrived.

This cottage is a very comfortable and cosy place.

This is the second time we have stayed and will most likely go again. Thanks to the owners.

Really nice cottage in a great location with lots to do and great walking.

The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful.

A great cottage with fantastic views it is very clean tidy would rebook without hesitation

We had a wonderful stay at Barn Cottage in February 2018.

Everything was done to such a high spec and the fire and the Rayburn was much appreciated on a cold winters night. Fab location to explore and we had a couple of lovely meals at the Streetshead Inn in front of their roaring fire. We loved it so much that we’ve just booked to go back in November 2019. The Williams Family

A super cottage in a super location, it is situated in a very quiet hamlet.

Very peaceful. The cottage met all our needs for us as we like to cook for ourselves and are keen walkers. The furnishings were of very good quality which made for a very comfortable stay indeed. The kitchen was very well equipped and the room beside this made a very good boot room. There were far reaching views from the lounge window. Locally there were several pubs to choose from and a morning/afternoon bus service a mile away. The area is surrounded by Public Right of Way and a good road link to villages with shops and cafes.

Had a wonderful stay in Barn Cottage.

Very comfortable, clean and well equipped and a perfect location for exploring the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. Would highly recommend!

Well equipped cottage, homely in beautiful location.

Barn Cottage is a very comfortable, clean, well equipped cottage.

It's position means it is very peaceful yet has easy access to Leyburn and Hawes. There are superb walks from the doorstep and many places of interest a short drive away which means it is easy to have a very varied holiday. We were sorry when we had to leave.

Great holiday in a fantastic cottage.

The location was excellent for walking and had excellent pubs nearby.

Nice quiet comfortable cottage, made a good relaxing base for exploring the dales, close to good pubs and not too far from amenities.

Another great Sykes cottage.

Barn Cottage is well furnished and equipped.

It was spotlessly clean and the owner was very helpful when contacted beforehand. The beds are very comfortable and all the linens are of excellent quality. The kitchen annex was very useful for boots, rucksacks etc. We would recommend it.

A spacious, comfortable cottage in an amazing location.

We enjoyed the adventure of cooking on the Rayburn and tackling the spiral staircase. Sitting in the window seat looking across the Dale will stay with us for some time. Wonderful communication with Sykes and the owner. Excellent!

The cottage was gorgeous and cosy, just as per the photos and in a beautiful location.

The locals were great as were the facilities and activities, all easily accessible even in the stunning Yorkshire countryside. Thank you

The cottage was excellent, very clean and everything was there that we needed, it was a pleasure to stay and we will return.

Please pass on the good comments to the owner. Elliot Wellman.

The cottage feels like a home from home.

All you need to cook etc. is there. Beautiful views and quality furniture and fixings. Wood burner is excellent. Would definitely book again. Thank you to the owners.

Absolutely delightful cottage - we had a wonderful week in this very comfortable and clean cottage.

It had beautiful views and we enjoyed looking out from the window seat with our cups of tea! We will definitely be back in the future.
