Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviews overwhelmingly describe 'The Barn' as exceptionally clean, with numerous guests noting the spotless condition upon arrival. One isolated comment mentioned a minor issue with mould, but this does not seem to be a common concern.
The property's location is frequently praised for its proximity to Northallerton and ease of access to local attractions, shops, and natural beauty spots. The rural setting with countryside views is also appreciated, contributing to a peaceful atmosphere.
Guests find 'The Barn' to be very comfortable, with special mentions of the quality of the beds and the spaciousness of the property. The underfloor heating and the provision of games and entertainment options contribute to a cosy and enjoyable stay.
The facilities, including the hot tub, are generally regarded as excellent, with many guests commenting on the well-stocked kitchen and entertainment options. However, a few reviews mention issues with hot water and bedroom TVs not working, which suggests room for improvement in maintenance.
The host's thoughtfulness is evident in the welcome packs provided, which are frequently mentioned and appreciated by guests. While these packs are a lovely touch, it is noted that such gestures are at the host's discretion and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

Beautiful location, very clean and comfortable and the hot tub is a fantastic extra. Everything you need is provided right down to the Welcome Pack which exceeded any expectations and is a kind gesture which we really appreciated. The owner Cliff is warm, welcoming and very knowledgeable about the local area and provides suggestions of the best places to visit during your stay. We are already booking our next visit to the Barn and canât wait to return. Thank you Cliff for a wonderful relaxing break.

The owner provided a welcome pack which was unexpected but very much appreciated. The owner also went âthe extra mileâ and gave us fireworks to let off on New Yearâs Eve.
