Mosscarr Barn Reviews

We absolutely loved our time at Moscarr Barn we were celebrating my mums 80th birthday and had the best time. The barn is so lovely and clean and welcoming. The surrounding countryside is beautiful.
The accommodation was absolutely beautiful. No stone has been left unturned with the fixtures and fittings . There is everything you could ever need . The whole place is tastefully decorated and perfect . The small touches with the welcome basket and chocolate on the pillows was gratefully received . We made use of the log burner each night which made the downstairs so warm and cosy . Would highly recommend this beautiful barn conversion and will seriously consider staying again should we venture to the Yorkshire Dales

We had a lovely stay at Mosscarr Barn for an 80th birthday celebration. Every detail for our convenience and comfort had been carefully considered. The welcome basket was indeed most welcome, as were other little touches like chocolates on each bed, the doggie kit and well put together visitors information. Its a fantastic luxury property with a homely, cosy feel in a great location. Thankyou.

A really beautiful place to stay for a few nights at any time of year. Great for walking and really getting away from it all. Would definitely revisit again. Thank you
Mosscarr Barn was a wonderful place to stay, beautifully presented with lovely touches for your comfort. The setting was perfect for us, the cows were friendly a short drive into the village, we recommend the Pancake House. Also, it isnt far from Harrogate, Malham Cove and Fountains Abbey to name a few.
Terence
This stay was amazing. Of all the stays we've had over the years this one stands out as the best.Ok the drive up is at first a bit daunting but do as the owner says and alls well and the guide for the access reflects the attention to detail we found in the property. It is simply wonderful to find such a well kept property, totally clean and with amazing facilities.We all loved it and it was so peaceful as well with fantastic views.Thank you.
Mosscarr Barn is one of the best facilities we have stayed in, very well looked after, spacious and equipped with eveything needed and more. The owners have clearly tried to cater for anything that potential users might require. We couldn't fault what was provided and the facility is also thoroughly clean. The postbooking information and communication provided is perfect too. Being accessed well offroad the accommodation is quiet but is also very conveniently placed for local amenities. The access road is a little bumpy but is not difficult to negotiate. We would recommend Mosscarr Barn to anyone, but especially large familiies. In addition to everything else, there is very thoughtful provision for children which those who were with us really appreciated! Thanks Mary.
We have had a wonderful stay at Mosscarr Barn. Every need was thought of. There was ample equipment in the kitchen, and plenty of storage for our food. The ice maker in the fridge and the boiling water tap are fabulous! We loved the locals living in the field next door a friendly bunch of heffers who enjoyed a cheeky carrot. There was plenty to do in the area... Fountains Abbey being an absolute must. We ate in most nights, the barn was a comfortable place to spend time in the evenings. One night, we went for dinner in Ollie's pizza in Pately Bridge, which was fabulous. We had looked for a pub to have supper, but didn't find one that was serving in the evening, but the Italian was delicious. Beds were comfy, bathrooms were clean and modern... just a great place to stay. Loved it. Thank you very much.

We had a fabulous short stay at Mosscarr Barn. The pre arrival communication was excellent. The owner has obviously put a great deal of thought into furnishing & equipping the property. The housekeeping team clearly do an excellent job in keeping the place clean and there were several welcoming touches, right down to fresh flowers on the kitchen window sill. Set in stunning scenery, there are walks a plenty and it was a delight to come back to the barn each evening. If you need some time away from the stresses of life Id recommend a stay at Mosscarr Barn.
This is our third stay at Mosscarr Barn, and we're already excitedly planning to come back next year! The listing truly feels perfect, offering everything you'd hope for in a cosy retreat surrounded by breathtaking scenery. From watching the sunrise over the hills and strolling through the beautiful Dales, to relaxing with a glass of wine in the yard as the lovely cows come to say hello. The property looks fantasticjust as beautiful as when we first visitedand the dedicated team takes such great care of Mosscarr Barn. They pay attention to every detail, from chocolates on pillows and mini toiletries to help you settle in, to washing and dishwasher tablets everything is thoughtfully provided to make your stay truly special.
Pamela
A three generation holiday, youngest 16 and oldest 74, we had a wonderful weeks stay at this amazingly well fitted out barn, even the weather was good! The barn is situated in a very quiet location. This property provided us all with everything we needed, very well planned out with quality fitments, thank you Mary. We did not need to bother our host, all was perfect. Local walking was excellent too. Pateley Bridge nearby for food shopping. Although part of a working farm nothing got in our way. A small pedigree herd of cows were no trouble at all, they were so affectionate and enjoyed all the rubs and cuddles available to them. I would thoroughly recommend this property for a very comfortable stay within wonderful scenery. We have no complaints at all.
Steven
Fantastic cottage and location, everything we needed to enjoy our holiday.
What an amazing place to. Stay and so magical. The barn has everything, comfort, quiet, waking up to saying hello to the sheep.and cows, it gives you the relaxation and time out needed in life. The kitchen is well equipped and the courtyard is great to sit out in. We had such great walks into Pateley Bridge and the surrounding area, no need to take the car out every day. Thank you for sharing this perfect place with us we had such a fabulous time.
Ronnie
A fantastic barn conversion, in the middle of a beautiful part of Yorkshire, it is fitted to the highest standard, it had everything we could need, the kitchen was amazing, a boiling water tap, coffee machine, it was outstanding, we all had a wonderful break.

The property was furnished to a very high spec, making it a very enjoyable and comfortable stay. There was every amenity we could have wished for. The views of the countryside and local walks were outstanding. I would recommend this property to anyone, knowing that they would not be disappointed.
Sheila
A lovely property incredibly well equipped. Immaculately clean and comfortable in a beautiful location.
Lesley
What an absolutely fantastic place to stay! It is really lovely and comfortable, with everything that you could possibly need. Six adults, one dog, very happy! We were lucky we had beautiful weather, as Im sure the track up to the barn does get very muddy, BUT as long as you drive slowly it should be fine. My Jack Russell did not want to come home and had to be carried out of the house! She was incredibly safe in the courtyard, and pottered about freely. We could come back in a heartbeat. Well done Mary. The communication we had was brilliant.
We had a lovely time staying at Mosscarr Barn. Plenty of space for 4 adults & 4 children. It was comfortable, finished to a high standard, clean and the kitchen was the best equipped kitchen we have ever had in a holiday home! We would definitely stay again & would recommend to anyone looking to stay in Yorkshire. Plenty of places to visit nearby and lovely little shops in Pateley Bridge especially the sweet shop!
It was a fabulous cosy place to relax with friends the little touches made is ... It was a fabulous cosy place to relax with friends the little touches made is special would definitely recommends stay here
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the beautiful welcome at the Barn. We had a beautiful time and fully enjoyed all the ammenities and the fully equipped kitchen with the beautiful landscape covered in snow. It was a very idyllic setting. The dogs were also very welcomed and we couldn't have asked for a better communication with the owner. That made the whole experience better. We would love to visit again all the way from the Netherlands and our party of seven all enjoyed the stay at the beautiful converted barn.
This barn had everything we could need the kitchen was well stocked with more than enough of everything. Games, books jigsaws to enjoy our evenings and we had Christmas films on the the tv we all felt at home. The yard was secure for our dog, the walk to Pateley bridge was lovely for a morning walk and to the Bridge Inn drink in the late afternoon with a dark walk back up the lane. Torches needed and are there. We stayed in two beautiful Sykes properties this is by far my favourite. Thank you to Mary as well for the emails directions were fantastic and completely accurate down to the digger!
Beautiful place, perfect for dog walks and hosts very accommodating
Jonathan
A lovely well presented property with every utensil you could possibly need in the spacious kitchen. Very comfortable bedrooms three of which are en suite. The beautiful scenery starts practically at the doorstep and is enough to raise the spirits even on the darkest day. We cannot recommend Mosscarr Barn highly enough...just perfect for our needs.
Beautiful barn, the owners had thought of everything, it was so well equipped and clean
