What Our Guests Say...
The hosts Diane and Andrew are utterly insane! Their levels of care and attention to detail are literally 'off the scale!' No matter where you go or where you stay, you will NOT find anything better than the wonderful, amazing Byre! We will be back again and again, Thank you for such a wonderful stay,
Our first time staying at this beautiful cottage and we'll definitely be back. We've enjoyed an amazing week and it's a joy return to The Byre after each day out. It is beautifully appointed and extremely comfortable. Diane and Andrew have thought of everything. Thank you Diane and Andrew for your warm welcome and making our stay so memorable.
Thank you Diane and Andrew for your warm welcome and for everything you do to make us feel so comfortable and thoroughly spoilt. You are fabulous hosts! We really appreciate the comfort, cleanliness and quality that this beautiful cottage provides. We have had a truly wonderful few days exploring the Dales in glorious weather. We look forward to returning and we leave you with our thanks and very best wishes.
The most wonderful accommodation and hospitality we could hope for in this spectacular part of the world. Thank you Diane and Andrew for your gracious welcome and care during our stay. We will be back!
This is our fourth visit to Cottage in the Dales and we have booked for 2026 and 2027. I think that says a lot. I just love it here, so comfortable and everything you could wish for. It was sunshine for two weeks. Thank you Diane and Andrew.
Our first visit to The Byre but not to Diane and Andrew's hospitality, which is second to none! The Byre is better than the cottage in West Burton and I didn't think I would ever say that. Weather was glorious! Thank you Diane we will come again next year.
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.
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.
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 wonderfully welcoming, cosy & warm cottage. Very comfortable. Seeing the Dales in the snow was a bonus. We've stayed in all 3 cottages now. All amazing, but think The Byre is our favourite. Thank you Diane & Andrew for your hospitality and many thanks to Rachel too. See you again soon.
Everything was excellent just as it always is. Just a quick visit but a great way to start the year. See you in October.
Our first Christmas visit, the cottage evoked the very essence of Christmas with all the lovely decorations, the tree and don't forget the cosy log burning stove. Days out walking in the Dales, it was always a lovely thought to return to our welcoming cottage in the evening. Thank you to Diane and Andrew for such excellence.
