Guest Book - The Byre

Well, what can I say? I've had three New Years at Inglenook which have been very enjoyable. However, The Byre is another step up from that. It's very well equipped and I've wanted for nothing. It is very warm and comfortable. Five stars and a Gold award say it all. I'll be back in 2020 to see in 2021!
Returning Guest from Southampton - January 2019

Returning Guests from York, North Yorkshire - October 2018

The cottage is beautiful and the attention to detail is second to none. We came for the dark skies and although we only had one night it didn't disappoint! We saw the Milky Way for the first time. Diane's suggestions on places to go were spot on. We had a fantastic weekend. This is an astrophotographer's paradise. We can't wait to return! Thank you x
Guests from Birmingham - October 2018

What a lovely cottage containing everything you could possibly need. Great location, we were very lucky with the weather and managed to some spectacular skies, with and without the telescope. Diane & Andrew should be very proud. You can see how much care has gone into the renovation. We will definitely return. Thank you very much.
