Cleanliness is consistently highlighted, with numerous guests describing the property as spotless, immaculate, and exceptionally well-presented. Only one or two minor mentions of chipped crockery or feather cushions were noted, but these did not detract from the overwhelmingly positive feedback.

We had a fabulous away from it all holiday in the Granary. The Accommodation was lovely, well equipped, surrounding area was nice with plenty to do within an hours drive. The Granary had lovely views from the upstairs living room and bedroom downstairs which We liked. Local area Barnard Castle with nice high street, lots of coffee shops and a castle. We also had a drive over to Durham with its castle and cathedral which we really enjoyed, and a scenic drive over to Hawes. We would definitely go back and stay in the same or even try one of the other accommodations. There is a farm shop cafe in Ravensworth which was lovely and worth a visit. We preferred it to Mainsgill and no queues.

We had a lovely stay at The Granary which had everything you would need for a nice relaxing holiday in the North Yorkshire countryside. The hostess Joe was very welcoming and very professional and friendly. The Granary was is fitted out stylishly to a very high standard, the bed was very comfortable and the apartment had lovely furniture and fittings and a lovely view looking out over the North Yorkshire countryside. There is also your own private garden with outdoor seating, fire pit and hot tub just what you need to come back to after a day out sightseeing. I would highly recommend The Granary to couples looking for the perfect stay.

Perfect for a short break away from it all. .The very pretty and private garden is perfect for relaxing in, we enjoyed the hot tub at the end of days out and there are interesting places to visit within short drives. The accommodation is spacious and stylish, with lovely views from the upstairs lounge. The immediate area around the cottages is rural farmland, we like walking but couldn’t find any nearby footpaths. There are plenty of lovely places to walk, again within a short drive.
