60th Birthday Family Getaway
This house is beautiful, there is everything you may need and more. The hosts go above and beyond to ensure your stay is enjoyed, we were delayed in our arrival time and had ordered a food delivery which the host very kindly received and put away in the fridge. Peaceful and close to the Dales where we enjoyed lovely walks. The sauna and lumi pod was a nice treat too! Would highly recommend to anybody wanting a family get away. You will not want for anything, house is very well equipped and lovely lemon drizzle cake upon arrival. Thank you!!

Exceeded expectations!
My first thought when we got to the venue was ‘oh wow this is beyond what I expected!’ I was blown away at the beauty of the property and surroundings, the layout and finishing touches of the property make it so homely but still clean & well finished without being crowded. The extra touch of a homemade loaf and a little note was such a treat, everything had been thought of and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, I will definitely recommend to friends & family. Communication was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble me. Thank you Marcus & Cintra for sharing your beautiful property with us.

A beautiful barn in a great location
We rented the barn for four nights for a family birthday party. Everything is decorated to the highest standard with beautiful bedding, towels and soft furnishings. All the bedrooms are a good size. We loved the open plan kitchen and lounge and the dining space was perfect for our party. We were greeted warmly by our host and nothing was too much trouble. The outdoor space is fabulous and the village is beautiful. We had a wonderful time from start to finish.

Beautiful accommodation in beautiful grounds
Such beautiful accommodation which had everything we needed. The layout was perfect for us and having the pool table and the assortment of games was great. The bonus of a sauna was great! The grounds were lovely with the sheep and Beebee the alpaca who was really entertaining. The woods were beautiful for a wander and we even managed to see the owl. Thank you for a perfect week.

Beautifully maintained property in easy to-reach rural location, close enough to York to pop in and enjoy, and far enough from the hustle and bustle of day to day life to relax and enjoy time with friends. Everything we needed for an enjoyable stay provided.

Second visit to this property
We came back to visit with other family members and enjoyed our stay just as much as the first. Some of us were a little under the weather and so it was lovely to have a relaxing, beautiful environment in which to rest. We were even able to avail ourswlves of the sauna which had been installed since the last time we visited back in September. A delightful property! i wish we could find something similar to one day for us to live in!

Perfect for what we needed to get together as a family for the first time in years. Very nice property, thoughtfully ready for us and a lovely cake to welcome us. Really friendly and helpful when there were things we needed. The location is lovely and the children loved the alpaca and walking in the woods. Thank you both!

A beautiful place to stay and relax
The property is not only stunning, it is set in the beautiful countryside with sheep, rabbits and even a friendly Alpaca. There’s tons of room inside, we were a party of 8 and a small dog. There’s also loads of room to play and explore outside. You can sit in the garden and eat breakfast/dinner together as there is a large garden table. My mum is in a wheelchair so the downstairs bedroom with en-suite was perfect for her and dad. There’s lots of great things to do for all ages within a short car journey. I would definitely recommend this excellent property.
