Guest Book - The Byre
Anther wonderful stay in your very comfortable cottage. We have enjoyed sitting in your beautiful garden. It's so colourful. Loved listening to the birds and watching the robot mower! Thank you Diane and Andrew for everything you do to make our stay so memorable. Thanks to Rachel too. Can't wait until next next time. Best wishes from us both.
Great to see Diane and Andrew again after meeting in Ulusaba last November. The Dales are different to South Africa, but very beautiful and a fabulous place. We absolutely loved this cottage. Unfortunately is was only for one week. Thank you so much for the warm welcome and the excellent hospitality. We are looking forward to return.
Second stay in The Byre - much needed peaceful holiday. It was so good to return - enjoyed Diane and Andrew's hospitality - thank you very much. Excellent Easter Sunday, fab food at Swinton Park Hotel and enjoyed fabulous Mainsgill Farmshop once again. Sunny days with G&Ts in the garden - looking forward to return in October!
Another lovely stay in our favourite cottage and can't wait to come back.
Returning guests but now to The Byre. Just as lovely and comfortable as The Dairy & Inglenook. Real home from home. Already booked for 2027 and 2028. Thank you to Diane and Andrew for another fabulous break
The Howarths know how to deliver on 5 star getaways! Amazing time and stay with the best of friends. Made even better with an unreal feed from Andrew himself - the wine sealed the deal!
Amazing break - everything through out so carefully to provide every comfort. Quiet, peaceful - a real sanctuary. Hope we can return.
Another beautiful stay in this warm and comfortable cottage. We love you how constantly seek to continue to improve things for your guests so it is even better eg the new bathroom night light - very good and second stair handrail also very helpful.
Another fantastic stay at The Byre. Everything perfect as always. Thank you Diane and Andrew.
Our first stay at The Byre absolutely exceeded our expectations. A beautiful cottage in an outstanding area. We felt very relaxed and at home here and would love to return. Thank you Diane and Andrew x
Another beautiful stay in the comfortable, warm and cosy cottage. Thank you for all your help as we search for a house in the area - it is much appreciated. We look forward to returning.
Yet another wonderful visit to The Byre to enjoy your amazing hospitality, Di and Andrew! You think of everything to give your guests a wonderfully relaxing break, We will drag ourselves home tomorrow but we will be back! Have a super festive season and look forward to seeing you in 2026
Our second visit to The Byre. This time for a mini-honeymoon. Was as wonderful as we remember it and it will always have a special place in our hearts. Thanks so much Diane and Andrew - The champagne went down a treat!
A welcome return back, not disappointed, just as we remembered. Love log burner. Will be back.
A perfect restful stay in this wonderful cottage. Everything to such a high standard. We spent the time looking up old haunts in the Dales and coming back each evening to a warm fire and comfort galore Thank you Andrew & Diane, such welcoming hosts.
