Guests say
Gelderslack Barn is consistently praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and thoughtful touches. Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities, cosy atmosphere, and the property's ideal location for exploring the area and enjoying local walks. The enclosed courtyard is a hit with dog owners, and the nearby pub offers tasty meals. The hosts are commended for their friendliness and attention to detail, contributing to a relaxing and enjoyable stay.
Reviewers unanimously commend the property for its immaculate cleanliness, often using terms like 'spotless' and 'immaculately clean' to describe their experience.
The property's location is highly praised for its convenience to local walks, a friendly pub, and proximity to Kirkby Stephen. It serves as an ideal base for exploring the surrounding areas, with only a few comments about flies due to the countryside setting slightly affecting the score.
Guests find the cottage warm, cosy, and comfortable, with special mentions of a powerful shower and comfy bed enhancing their stay. The only suggestion for improvement is a desire for a king-size bed by one reviewer.
The barn is lauded for its well-equipped facilities, including a log burner, underfloor heating, and sensor lights. The attention to detail in the conversion process is appreciated, although there is a single mention of difficulty with digital cooking appliances.
Reviewers frequently mention the thoughtful welcome tray and other gifts, which add a personal touch to their stay. While these gestures are greatly appreciated, it is politely noted that such gifts are a delightful bonus and not guaranteed.

This cottage situated in the Yorkshire Dales was ideal for the two of us. It is cosy, very well equipped, with very easy access for the less able bodied. It was decorated for Christmas, and the welcome pack much appreciated. With family commitments nearby, we did not have enough time to properly explore the area, but it was well worth a visit to the Owen Farm Shop and Cafe. Will return one day when hopefully the weather will be a lot kinder.

The Barn is amazing and the location perfect. We arrived on a very wet and cold evening to a warm and cosy welcome, underfloor heating was on and the whole place was toasty. Enhanced by Christmas decorations! The barn is spotless and had everything we needed. Our first time in Nateby, lovely little village with more than enough walks for all levels and the Black Bull is 2 mins walk away, really good food and friendly locals. I could go on but the fact we booked another stay the day we left says it all.
