Easter Holidays In Aysgarth

  This is one of the cleanest cottages I have ever stayed in.

  The property owners have made a good effort to combine rustic charm with modern style and luxuries. I can only assume that the owners are either meticulous cleaners or that the property has been recently redecorated, because it was absolutely immaculate. The property was confusing and difficult to find, but the upside of that was that it made the property very secluded and private, which I enjoyed very much. Often with these rural cottages you have to park far away from the property and lug all of your belongings to and from the car, but the property's gated driveway made this a pleasant exception. Sleeping wasn't too bad, since the area is so quiet, but the bed is quite firm. This, in fact, is the only aspect where I could recommend improvement - The bed would benefit from a mattress topper or entirely new replacement and the sofas are pretty hard too. All in all, this is a very enjoyable and well-stocked cottage and would seriously consider booking again if I return to the area.

  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.

  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

  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 .

  Ballowfield Barn is always immaculately presented and is a real home from home. The setup has been well thought out and it’s clear that the owners have put a lot of thought into what people need for their stay. This is one of the few places where we haven’t thought ‘oh they don’t have X’. We’ve stayed here three times so far and this definitely won’t be our last time visiting either. The whole area is beautiful and there are so many things on the doorstep of the cottage and even more within an hour or twos drive. This is only 1.5 hours from where we live but we genuinely feel like we’re in a whole other world when we visit.
