Guests say
Skellgill Barn is highly praised for its peaceful and beautiful rural setting, ideal for dog owners and walkers. Guests appreciate the welcoming owner and the cosy, well-equipped accommodation. The local cheese and biscuits gifted by the owner are a delightful touch, though such gifts are not guaranteed. The secure garden and proximity to local towns and attractions add to the charm, despite some concerns about Wi-Fi and mobile data reception.
Reviews consistently describe the barn as clean and comfortable, with no negative comments on cleanliness, suggesting a high standard is maintained.
The location is repeatedly commended for its tranquillity and natural beauty, with easy access to local walks and towns. However, the distance to the nearest large supermarket and the issue with mobile reception slightly affect the score.
Guests find the barn cosy and the beds comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen area. The secure garden is a plus for pet owners, contributing to the overall comfort.
While the barn is praised for its equipment and cosiness, there are mixed comments about Wi-Fi and mobile data reception, and no specific mention of other facilities to accurately score this category.
The owner's gifts of local cheese and biscuits are mentioned positively, reflecting thoughtfulness. However, as these gifts are not guaranteed for every stay, the score reflects this uncertainty.

Beautiful location for walks and drives to various locations around North Yorkshire, dog friendly which allowed us to bring our 2 medium size dogs (please be mindful that accommodation is on the first floor via an external staircase, bedrooms via internal staircase on ground floor. If you’re taking elderly or handicapped medium to large dogs this may cause access difficulties). Very welcoming owner and family. We had a very enjoyable two weeks with fun adventures with our dogs.
