Idyllic rural location with lovely views and still near to a main town for shops. Local community pub in village serving tasty food with a mobile fish & chip shop on Thursday evening which had some of the best ever tasted. Well equipped cottage and comfy sofas and we had a very enjoyable stay in Barn Acre.

Dales Break

We had a fabulous time at the cottage which is newly renovated and extremely well equipped. The shower is superb! We also loved the open fire. It is the ideal location for exploring the mid Dales and the rain didn’t stop our fun. We would highly recommend this property.

Fab stay in Carlton

Very very comfortable with everything you need to cook (handy as there’s only the lovely pub at hand and no shop nearby). Heating works a treat and it’s a relaxing and welcoming place to return to after yet another amazing walk. The generous welcome pack goodies very much appreciated! Thanks again.

Gorgeous

One of my favourite holiday houses ever. The house has all amenities you could want for a self catering holiday, with plenty of lovely and thoughtful extras. The location is beautiful with plenty of places to see and walk nearby. The owners responded quickly to any messages and the instructions for getting there and check in were excellent. I would wholeheartedly recommend!

Picture perfect

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Barn Acre. The house is beautifully decorated and well equipped. We cooked, we played games by the fire, we slept soundly. We left wanting to return to this lovely house in "God's own country". The Dales are spectacular in Spring - so beautiful, so green (and muddy!) and little lambs everywhere.

A lovely view!

As ever, heavenly! We spent a lovely 5 days at barn acre. The weather though changeable was excellent and gave us a chance to continue to explore the area. Bolton castle is a must. We were able to return to barn acre knowing that it is a wonderful base. Everything you need for a very comfortable visit. This is our third visit and won’t be our last. We thank the owners for their cosy home from home and their lovely welcome package.

Splendid Dales experience

We really enjoyed this cosy cottage, nicely furnished, kitchen etc well-equipped. There is, however, an odour issue, especially in the small bedroom and the living-room, probably due to mould. Place needs to be aired frequently. Still, a good choice.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 Sept 2024
Thank you for taking the time to review our property. We have checked the cottage thoroughly and couldn’t detect any odours. Visitors who have stayed prior to your stay and after have not commented on any unpleasant smells so I can only assume these were from the local farm.

Wonderful cottage in quiet little town

A superb cottage, it was perfectly clean and tidy and well appointed, with a lovely little welcome package too! The bed was comfy and the kitchen had everything I needed, a large TV offering Freeview, FreeSat and streaming services if you have an account. WiFi was good throughout the property which is great because I had no phone signal (which was perfect for me!) The location is a quiet village with a nice little pub (but no shops), set amongst the Yorkshire Dales. Everywhere you walk or drive gives stunning views, so a perfect spot for a relaxing holiday. Thank you for a great couple of weeks!
