This is about the fourth time we have stayed in one of Diane and Andrew's cottages. As always this stay was perfect. Excellent accommodation as always. Already booked for next year. Many thanks.
Returning Guests from Neston, Cheshire - August 2023

Another wonderful time at this amazing place. Great welcome as always from Diane and Andrew. Second time at The Byre. Got in some great walks, managed Pen-y-Ghent and a great walk from Pateley Bridge to Brigham Rocks (circular). Weather has been great for walking and only a little rain. Great days out in Harrogate, Ripon, Richmond, Grassington. Best meal at the White Lion in Cray and the Wensleydale Heifer, also the Sandpiper Inn in Leyburn. Stunning as always. Thank you so much Diane and Andrew. See you soon.
Returning Guests from Southampton - July 2023

We had the cottage booked for 3 years due to Covid. We finally arrived to a warm welcome and the delicious aroma of freshly baked bread. What a wonderful three weeks stay we had, apart from the inclement weather. We did everything we had planned to do in a wonderful setting and a fantastic cottage. Diane and Andrew are a wonderful and friendly couple, always there to help when needed. Thanks.
Guests from Auckland, New Zealand - July 2023

Returning Guests from Ormskirk, Lancashire - June 2023

Just amazing, as always. Great weather and wonderful scenery with all the wild flowers and bird life. Revisited favourite walks & discovered several new ones. Hospitality and accommodation outstanding. Thank you.
Returning Guests from Tunbridge Wells, Kent - June 2023

Our first visit to The Byre and hopefully not our last. We have enjoyed a fabulous week in the Yorkshire sunshine - our bikes took us on scenic routes past flower-filled meadows - stunning! The accommodation and hosts, Diane and Andrew, are outstanding and we have already recommended The Byre to friends. Favourite places were Bolton Castle (great value) and the Himalayan Sculpture Garden - at its very best in late May/early June.
Guests from Stockport, Cheshire - June 2023

An absolutely stunning two weeks - cottage, scenery and weather.
