Guest Book - The Byre
Yet another wonderful stay at Cottage in the Dales - our first time in The Byre. Cosy cottage for two with beautiful antique finishes. The warmest of welcomes as always from Diane and Andrew. Thanks again for a stunning retreat to add to our memories. Looking forward to August 2026 already.
What a wonderful place to stay. We have chilled and had plenty of down time. The Byre is stunning. We will be back from Boldon, nr Newcastle. Thank you Diane for your recommendations too!
Back again! Despite both us having the dreaded spring lurgy, we still managed to have a wonderful time. Weather absolutely glorious and lucky enough to bag an extra three days. Gorgeous cottage. Lacks for nothing. Already booed again for next year. Why wouldn't we!
We've had a lovely break. Crisp, bright, sunny days and returning to old haunts. Then back, at day's end, to the comfort of The Byre.
We've loved our stay in your stunning cottage, so peaceful, everything perfect! Thanks very much.
Another brilliant trip to The Byre, even the weather has been perfect! We've visited Hawes, Richmond, Kipling Hall, Harlow Carr and even managed to catch the filming of All Creatures Great and Small in Grassington - such fun! Thank you Andrew and Diane for everything.
A truly wonderful experience. It lived up to its reputation and did not disappoint. Without doubt, I'll be back!
This is the best cottage we have stayed at. That is why we have been coming back see 2013. Hope to be back again soon. Thank you again Diane and Andrew.

A much needed relaxing weekend in the Yorkshire Dales. Lovely to see the festive touches in this cosy cottage. We hope to return!
Our second stay at Cottage in the Dales - this time, The Byre, which we almost fell in love with. The cottage has so much character. The kitchen is very well equipped - we could prepare a lot of decent meals from the wonderful produce we retrieved from Mainsgill Farmshop and Campbell’s. Loved the Christmas decorations at Castle Howard, Afternoon Tea at Betty’s and the ‘Behind the Scenes’ Tour at Tennants. A treat at Sunday carvery lunch at the Street Head Inn and the fine dining at the Heifer. Already booked to return in 2026 and looking forward to coming back. Thank you Diane and Andrew for your wonderful hospitality - Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones.
We've had another wonderful trip to The Byre, which even Storm Bert couldn't spoil! The highlights have been the Christmas festivities at Tennants, RHS Harlow Carr, the Bowes Museum, the Green Howards Museum and the amazing Christmas festival at Harewood House. Leaving is going to be so difficult, but already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you Diane and Andrew for thinking of everything.
A very good weekend break. Cottage as good as ever. Hope to visit again. Thank you Diane and Andrew.
