Thank you for a wonderful stay. The views are so stunning and we loved having breakfast outside by the BBQ overlooking the Dale.

Many thanks Liz and Danny for a smashing stay at Beacon view. Beautiful surroundings, terrific accommodation and wonderful warm and friendly welcome.

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...

Dale View Barn March 2018
Lovely week in a stunning property - beautifully converted and furnished and warm! Utility room is a real bonus.

The recently opened cliff edge section of the...

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.

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....

Dear Liz and Danny, Once again Crag House Farm has proved to be the perfect venue for unwinding and meeting up with old friends.

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’. Rock pooling at Saltburn and Robin Hood’s Bay, Luke caught fish, crabs, Hermit crabs, shrimps and snails. A trip to Scarborough’s Sea Life Centre was also a hit! 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.
A stunning rural retreat in an amazing location – walks from your doorstep – wonderful wildlife – come and explore this unspoilt and beautiful part of England. Ideally placed to visit historic York, quirky Whitby, quaint fishing villages and quintessential Yorkshire market towns.
Picture soaring skies, huge views, your own ancient sandstone barn surrounded by 554 square miles of magical moorland, ancient woodland, idyllic dales, historic sites and a stunning Jurassic Age coastline to explore.
