Stayed over new year. Rooms are spacious, well-appointed and comfortable. Everything was spotlessly clean. Exceptional welcome pack! Fabulous location, great views from conservatory or lovely garden. This is a wonderful property.

This was the fifth time we have stayed at Fairfield and it now feels like coming home. Barley is my favourite place in the world and love the peace and tranquility there. Ruth the owner is wonderful and so helpful, and she keeps the place spotless. It is a home from home. Barley is a lovely village and ideally placed to explore close by or even over into Yorkshire. We often visit Haworth and Skipton and various other places but also love to stay put in the village and enjoy the wonderful accessible walks that are suitable for my mobility scooter. Can’t wait to return again.
