Cleanliness
Guests consistently note the immaculate condition of The Barn, with many highlighting its cleanliness as a standout feature. One review mentioned the need to clean cutlery and cups, but this appears to be an isolated comment amidst overall excellent feedback.
Location
The location is praised for its easy access to York and surrounding attractions, with a rural setting that is still convenient for exploring. Some guests mention road noise, but the majority find the location ideal for a peaceful stay.

The Barn is frequently described as cosy, comfortable, and homely, with spacious bedrooms and a peaceful atmosphere. Guests feel relaxed and enjoy the quiet evenings, although a few mention small bath towels as a minor inconvenience.
Facilities
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen and secure garden. The property is suitable for wheelchair users and dog-friendly. However, one review mentioned overgrown footpaths and another the need to clean some kitchen items before use, slightly affecting the score.

Many reviews express gratitude for the thoughtful gestures, such as welcome packs with cakes and tea. While these gifts are warmly received, it's important to note that such personal touches, though common, are not guaranteed with every stay.
