Perfection. Everything has been thought of and works. We experienced Dark Skies with Andrew's telescope too. Diane is a font of knowledge and we will be back again. THANKS SO MUCH!

As always, we have had a great stay. Even the January weather has been kind to us. Everything in the cottage was to the exemplary standard we have come to expect and appreciate. Thank you and see you soon.

Returning Guest from Wigton, Cumbria - January 2022

My second stay at The Byre and just as good as before (Dec 2018). I was due to come back in 2020 but Covid put an end to that! This is the very best of cottages and I've wanted for nothing. I hope to be back again! Thank you Diane and Andrew.
Returning Guest from Southampton, Hampshire - January 2022

A very special and memorable Christmas. Thank you very much for everything. Looking forward to May 2022 & next Christmas here at The Byre.
Returning Guests from Chester-le-Street, Co Durham - December 2021

For our second trip to The Byre we made it a week instead of a long weekend given how much we loved our first stay. We were treated to fantastic weather, which made walks in Kettlewell, Malham Cove & Bolton Abbey worthwhile for the views. Highly recommend walks there. Celebratory dinner at the Wensleydale Heifer & the Angel at Hetton were great evenings. A pit stop at Bettys (more than one!) made our trip fun. Diane & Andrew, thank you for a fantastic stay at your beautiful cottage.
