Beacon View Barn April 2018

Dear Liz and Danny. Thank you for a wonderful stay in your amazing 5* Beacon View.  Few trips in life are as good as they look in the pictures, Beacon View was even better. Thank you again, we hope we will be able to visit again in the future.    Wiltshire

Dale View Barn April 2018

We've had a lovely few days staying here just the two of us. The barn couldn't have been more comfortable and well equipped, and thank you Liz for making us so welcome. We went on a great walk from the Cicerone North York Moors book, which goes practically past the door, and a great day out in Whitby with fish and chips on the beach. We're very sad to have...

Heather View Barns April 2018

Many thanks to Liz and Danny for a week in your wonderful barns. So warm and comfortable with all the equipment anyone would need!  Visited the statue on the Moor- fabulous. Also had a great family meal at the new Star Inn the Harbour Whitby - Absolutely delicious.  Would love to return - hopefully with a bit better weather! Thanks again.

Dale View Barn March 2018

Lovely week in a stunning property - beautifully converted and furnished and warm! Utility room is a real bonus.  Lucky week with the weather and able to get lots of walking, muddy in the woods but generally fine. Spring is late this year and daffodils not out in Farndale yet but should be good after Easter. The recently opened cliff edge section of the...

Dale View Barn February 2018

Thank you Liz and Danny for a lovely weekend away.  The house was so cosy and well equipped and we enjoyed relaxing by the fire in the evenings.  We enjoyed a fab pub lunch and watched the rugby at the Fox and Hounds pub.  The sprinkling os snow made everything even more beautiful.  Thanks again.  Group of friends from  Lincolnshire.

Beacon View Barn February 2018

Dear Liz and Danny.  We have had a fantastic week in your barn, thank you!  A great place for a big family with three small children and a dog! Plenty to entertain the kids in a safe (i.e. childproof) house.  Dalby Forest is a great place to visit when it is too cold and windy on the moors although we got out on shorter walks even in the hail and sleet....

We have had a wonderful few days in this gorgeous barn! Lots of space for 6 adults, yet warm and cosy. A real home from home!

Beacon View Barn January 2018

Dear Liz and Danny,  Once again Crag House Farm has proved to be the perfect venue for unwinding and meeting up with old friends.  Despite inclement weather, we managed a number of memorable walks, not least to the newly installed 'Man on the Hill' sculpture.  It was always good to return to the snug and luxurious comforts of the Barn.  With our thanks and...

Beacon View Barn September 2017

Our stay has been everything we had hoped for – thank you for all your help. We've enjoyed some outstanding walks in Ainthorpe, Farndale and around Gregory’s Minster in Kirkdale which is worth seeking out.

PS Thanks also for letting the boys feed...

Beacon View Barn August 2017

Dear Liz and Danny. Thank you for having us all at Beacon View Cottage.  We have had a lovely time enjoying numerous trips to Whitby for ‘fish and chips’.

Meals at The Fox and Hounds, Ainthorpe...

Heather View – enjoying the best of both barns!

What a great place for a family 'get together'. Amazing views and plenty of room across both barns for us all to socialise and eat together. Really enjoyed the long week end. Thank you from three families.
