Guest Book - The Byre

We have thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay in your gorgeous cottage. We only wish we were here for longer!! The Byre is very well appointed and very comfortable - The Yorkshire Dales is a beautiful place - we would recommend The Street Head Inn, where we enjoyed a superb meal. We hope to return very soon. Thank you both very much :)

Excellent accommodation, best self catering we have ever stayed in! Aysgarth Falls was superb after the rain on Friday. Did some walks and the coffee, food etc at Berry's was very good.

Guests from Wakefield, West Yorkshire - March 2015

A very restful weekend, concluded with a beautiful sprinkling of snow! The cottage is exceptional. Thank you.
Guests from King's Lynn, Norfolk - March 2015

We had a really good stay in this beautiful cottage. What an exceptional restoration with great attention to detail. Thank you so much Diane & Andrew for making Tony’s birthday extra special with a lovely welcoming fire & bottle of red wine. What more could you ask? We had a meal at the ‘George’ in Thoralby. Quirky pub & landlord. Food was good, worth a visit. Saturday did a walk around Semerwater which was stunning helped by a beautiful day. In contrast, walked to West Burton in hail, snow, sun & wind. Good to get back to The Byre. Not forgetting the birthday meal on Sunday at Street Head Inn which was excellent! A great few days. Cheers and thank you once again.
