Snaptrip says
Barn House in the Yorkshire Dales receives high praise for its cleanliness, comfort, and stunning views. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, cosy log burner, and thoughtful touches like a welcome pack. The peaceful location is ideal for exploring the Dales, with some noting the convenience of nearby amenities and walks. A few mention minor issues with dogs barking and complex heating controls, but these do not detract from the overall excellent experience.

The cottage was very well equipped and spotlessly clean, we found so many different walks that we couldn't manage to fit them all in but the scenery was spectacular and we never tired of it. We fully recommend a stay at the Barn knowing that you will have a magical time, I recommend going in spring when all the lambs are born and frolicking in the fields.

The beds were very comfy, the kitchen well equipped and clean. The lounge is also nice to sit and relax with an extra sofa in the dining room for a change of view. There was plenty of space. Thornton Rust is a quiet rural village set back away from the main road but a handy location if you want to get out and visit other places.

Amazing views, quiet farming village, very clean, fantastic kitchen with everything you need for cooking. Great log burner and comfortable sofas and rocking chair. Could not have asked for more. Weather wasnt great but staying in at this house was not a problem. 10 month old was very well catered for too.
