Guests say
Grisedale Barn is a spacious and well-located property ideal for large groups and social gatherings. It offers ample parking, a well-equipped kitchen, and is set in a beautiful part of the Dales, perfect for walking and exploring local attractions. Guests have appreciated the property's rural charm and the owners' responsiveness to issues.
Some guests reported the barn could be cleaner, with dirt under beds and stained towels mentioned. However, the owners were proactive in cleaning the property when issues arose.
The barn's location is highly praised for its proximity to local walks, attractions, and towns, making it an excellent base for exploring the Dales.
The property is generally considered comfortable with ample space and effective heating, though some guests noted the beds and sofas could be more comfortable and the property could benefit from some homely touches.
The barn is well-equipped for large groups, with a good kitchen and ample space. However, some guests felt the property and its bathrooms need updating and maintenance, and there were issues with heating and hot water.
While guests mentioned receiving fresh flowers and the owners' efforts during a difficult situation, there is not enough consistent information about thoughtful gestures such as gifts to provide a score. It should be noted that such gestures, while appreciated, are not guaranteed.

The barn was dirty. No basic essentials.ie hand-wash. Pedal bin liners. Table cloth. Had to use pillows from beds for cushions. Couldn't open windows. Needs a good refurb. It was so bad we came home after 3 days. Spoke to owners. Refused to give refund and said we should make the most of what we had which was nothing.

Have been here in 2012 and returned December 2025. Beautiful barn, this is only a mile drive from Grassington and not far from Skipton. Lovely quiet location. I intend to return in the future.

Wonderful barn conversion. We have stayed before and rebooked for next year. It is great for groups as large communal space plenty of seats to relax and a large table for everyone to share meals together and good size bedrooms. Most rooms are 2 single beds due to room shapes but this means you get really good space within the room around the bed. Good range of kitchen equipment to enable you to cook if you wish too. Quiet location. Allows dogs.
