The Barn was everything we wanted from our Holiday. Very well maintained and furnished. The hot tub is such a great addition as well. perfect for the kids in the morning and before bed. The host was very quick to respond before and during our stay. Would highly recommend and would be very much look forward to returning.

We had a lovely weeks stay at The Barn. The host was welcoming and suggested places of interest. We were able to enjoy the beautiful countryside as we travelled across the Yorkshire Moors and the Yorkshire Dales. We enjoyed the hot tub at the end of the day while we relaxed and planned our next day excursions. We walked into Northallerton on the Saturday, to the market. Had lunch, before heading back to enjoy the sunshine and watch the wildlife. Will certainly recommend this to family and friends with or without children as it caters from adults and children. As two adults we still enjoyed the games room playing air hockey or football. Plenty of outdoor games too, if needed.
We have just had a Fantastic week at the Barn, the accommodation was just as advertised . Just what you need for a weeks relaxation. Our host Cliff is a mine of local information. Would highly recommend the Barn. Thanks to Cliff.

Welcome pack was amazing and Cliff the host very informative and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house and highly recommend. Under floor heating kept properly warm and the beds comfortable with luxurious quilt and pillows. Had great time in hot tub relaxing and looking at the views and watching the birds. Phil the maintenance man also very helpful and friendly. Thanks for a very pleasant holiday.
We have just returned home after our second stay at South Thornborough Farm. A lovely holiday cottage in a beautiful setting. Everything needed to live comfortably is provided. We had 2 12 weeks of pure bliss making use of the hot tub on an evening. Cliff and his team are very welcoming, friendly and helpful.
We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at the Barn! Beautiful property & location, with lovely views over the fields & all amenities close by. Hot tub & animals were a bonus! We love Yorkshire, having visited before & wouldn't hesitate about staying here again. Thanks Cliff for your warm hospitality!
Owner kindly provided a welcome hamper Also bbq essentials. Was very friendly & helpful in providing tips on places to visit. We enjoyed our chats with the owner, and playing with his amusing character of a dog. Funny. Everything was straight forward to do & use, including the lovely hot tub. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
Lovely comfortable and quirky property in a beautiful, peaceful location.
Lorraine
Enjoyed our stay at The Barn. Lovely property in a beautiful setting . Gorgeous views from all windows. Loved watching the wild life , the pheasants kept us entertained, didnt realise they could run as fast as they do. Thought the animals on the farm were lovely too especially the two little goat kids.Property is well kept and very comfortable , sad we had to return home. Thank you for a lovely stay Cliff. Will hopefully come back sometime. Lorraine and Abi.
Our holiday at The Barn was made excellent by the warm welcome we received by the owner. The hamper was very thoughtful and appreciated after cycling nearly 80 miles to get there. He also told us of good cycling places to visit and even offered to take us to some if we wanted. The property itself was perfect, clean and very comfortable, like home from home. A beautiful place to cycle too even though hilly. It was worth the effort.
Bernadette
We were more than happy with our cottage,we had all that we needed,home from Home feel. We also had a well stocked welcome pack this was a lovely surprise.thank you for that. The hot tub was a great size,games room was great with lots to do for kids,Clifford was full off information on great days out,very welcoming as well.lovely location well maintained, very happy all round
Such an amazing cottage! It has everything you need and the owner is friendly and knowledgable, responded straight away to queries and left us to enjoy the cottage in peace. Have been to lots of cottages, this was the best bed Ive slept in! The shower is fantastic too. Theres lots of puzzles and games, but if you just want to chill with the TV, it has all the streaming channels. Kitchen is small but perfectly formed with everything you need, but take everything you need, theres no oil, herbs etc as storage is on the kitchen worktop, so nowhere for previous renters to leave items for the next guests. The views are wonderful, and I really enjoyed watching the sun rise from my bed each morning. Its only 5 mins by car into Northallerton, 15 mins to Thirsk, and theres loads around to do and see. I cannot recommend The Barn enough. Its been heavenly, and I plan to return as soon as I can.
Gillian
The holiday property is lovely. Eveything you needed to use , the bed was a bit to high for me but very comfortable one in it . Hot tub was good nice to get into after being out all day Easy access to Northallerton town and other places. The only thing I would say it would be nice to a cupboard for food rather than on the work tops . Definitely would recommend to friends to go stay
Susannah
Stayed for 3 weeks to help tide us over a house move. Well equipped, very cosy and an excellent base for exploring North Yorkshire. Very clean and comfortable and the hot tub was a very welcome way to destress when dealing with a house move! A few minor maintenance issues but quickly resolved when we raised them. Thanks.
We loved staying here. Property was clean and spacious, great location on the farm. The owner was really helpful and every day enjoyed our feedback after visiting various locations. His knowledge was invaluable. Look forward to visit Yorkshire again soon.
Rajesh
Cliff is a lovely gent with great knowledge of the area which came very handy. The cottage is beaut8 equipped and well located to explore the local area Approximately an hour to Whitby, Richmond and York. The hot tub was an essential part of the booking for us as we knew it would be a welcome end to a days exploring. It is a working farm, so expect a little smell at times but go and say hello to the llamas, horses and goats! Great location, lovely cottage.
Lovely location and ideal for touring around Yorkshire. Lovely comfortable cottage and very friendly and helpful owners. Welcome hamper was a nice treat as well. Northallerton is very close by with some loverly shops to visit. Can recommend Bianco restaurant and White Rock Fish& Chips.
Clifford was a very generous and helpful host. Lovely bright and airy property in a beautiful quiet location. Ideal base for getting around North Yorkshire. Very comfortable accommodation with ideal facilities for a very relaxing break..

A lovely , clean cottage, There was a generous welcome pack and Clifford was a mine of local information, he told us about many places we could visit. The hot tub was a bonus and we used it most days after sightseeing. We would definitely recommend The Barn.
The best cottage we have stayed in for a long time. Beautiful location, very clean and comfortable and the hot tub is a fantastic extra. Everything you need is provided right down to the Welcome Pack which exceeded any expectations and is a kind gesture which we really appreciated. The owner Cliff is warm, welcoming and very knowledgeable about the local area and provides suggestions of the best places to visit during your stay. We are already booking our next visit to the Barn and cant wait to return. Thank you Cliff for a wonderful relaxing break.
Carolyn
Lovely few days away, we were blown away with the barn and hot tub. Large inside, very warm with under floor heating. Beds comfy. Very chilled thank you!
The property was well presented, clean and had everything we needed for our stay, including an excellent hot tub. The owner provided a welcome pack which was unexpected but very much appreciated. The owner also went the extra mile and gave us fireworks to let off on New Years Eve.
Lorraine
Amazingly relaxing week away in a lovely part of the country. Cliff gave us plenty of ideas for day trips and everyone was very friendly and helpful. Accommodation was spotless, well equipped and very comfy. The hot tub was a welcome treat every evening.

The Barn is very well located for lots of places to visit and walks to enjoy many more than we could fit into a week! Many thanks to Cliff and his family and helpers who made this a very enjoyable holiday.
We cannot recommend The Barn highly enough. Wonderful location just outside Northallerton but with a rural outlook and countryside views. Comfortable and well appointed accommodation and excellent facilities including hot tub and entertainment for the kids football goal, table football, air hockey etc And so many things to do in the local area. The Barn offered everything we were looking for for a fantastic family holiday!
The Barn has everything you need for a break away from home. It is clean & comfortable. The hot tub is definitely an added bonus, it was huge! There is a lovely welcome pack waiting for you when you arrive. Cliff is very friendly welcoming & has great advice for things to do in the area. He couldn't have been more helpful. Will definitely recommend it to friends.
Thank you Cliff, Maxwell and co for a wonderful stay. We were given a warm and generous welcome. The Barn was incredibly well equipped. Pleasantly surprised how much was included in the barn, even things like dishwasher tablets and toilet roll. Lovely and clean. The hot tub felt great after a day walking about. My 9 year old could have spent all day looking at the farm animals, and petting Maxwell. Highlight of her trip! We did double check a baby goat hadn't been stashed in the car before leaving!!. Really handy location, only couple of minutes into Northallerton and the railway station. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others to visit. Thanks again!
The barn was really clean, comfortable, well furnished and private. Had a lovely holiday.

A beautiful, peaceful week. The Barn is a welcoming, cosy place with wonderful views over open countryside . There was lots of information on visitor attractions in the area and after a days sightseeing there was nothing better than relaxing in the spacious hot tub. A fantastic week was had by all, thanks.
Laurence
The Barn was the perfect place to explore Yorkshire. It was in a central location to be able to access the Dales and the Moors. The Barn itself was perfect for our family of 4. We were given a fabulous welcome from the owner who shared ideas for days out and places to eat. There was also a welcome hamper which was very appreciated. The property had everything you needed with a spacious living area and clean and comfortable bedrooms. There was the added luxury of having a hot tub and a range of games including table football and croquet. The hot tub was easy to work and had bluetooth speakers and it was covered so could be enjoyed even in the rain. The kitchen was compact but had all the utensils you needed. Wereally couldn't fault our stay and would recommend to others.
Damian
Our family of four had a terrific stay in The Barn. The property was spotlessly clean, and was an excellent base for exploring North Yorkshire. The hot tub was a brilliant way to relax after a day out, while our children had great fun with the table top football. We hope to return!
This is a fabulous place to stay. There is everything you need and it is very well furnished with some lovely touches and warm, comfortable and cosy. Some lovely views and a very ample hot tub to relax in. It is within walking distance of Northallerton and all it offers. Highly recommended!
