Most guests found the property clean and welcoming, though a few noted minor cleaning oversights such as limescale and missed spots in the bathroom. These issues were not widespread and did not detract significantly from the overall experience.
The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, beautiful views, and easy access to walking routes and local attractions. Guests appreciated the rural setting and proximity to Skipton and Grassington.

Well appointed kitchen,plenty of crockery and cutlery. Some cushions and throws would make it more homely. Heating was good once it warmed up.

Stayed for 3 nights. 7 people and 2 dogs. Spacious and very comfortable. Rural location near working farm. The Barn has everything you need and circa 30 min walk into Grassington. Eat at Gamekeepers inn at Long Ashes, which was excellent. We would book at Grisedale Barn in the future.

Although dog friendly it never had a safe area for dogs.No hairdryer which is usually the norm.The sheets never fitted the mattress.Flickering light in double bed on-suite and plug in sink not working.As far as I am concerned this property is not a villa and is only suitable for group walkers
