Good views and plenty of scope for walking from the door. We hardly used our car all week. Hope to return.

We enjoyed every moment here on our second visit,, made even better by the beautiful weather. This lovely house is a joy to stay in and the location is so peaceful. We loved watching the resident swallows and listening to all the birds. The view is great and is perfect headspace. The house itself is very clean and comfortable. The hot tub is a perfect retreat after long walks. We hope to return!

There was so much space, inside and outside. It was clean, luxurious and exceeded our expectations. Location-wise, it was a short walk (approx 1.5km) into Malham via the Pennine Way or down the road to the river for a less hilly/boggy walk. I will definitely be returning to Flatt House Barn!
