We've had a lovely stay in Lockwood barn. Very cosy, clean, have everything we needed to feel welcomed. Localisation was also great if you want to explore North Yorkshire without crazy long drives. Everything we wanted to see was in about hour or less drive from the barn which was just perfect for us. Definitely recommending to everyone. Thank you to owners for being excellent hosts

Gorgeous place, clean tidy and really homely. Ideal for us as we had two in their 80's and a dog. Everything was well thought of and the welcome touches were the icing in the cake. Great communication from the owner and a lovely stay. Ideally located to get out and about though a car is a must.
