"Barn Owl cottage was nothing short of a total pleasure to stay in. It really did feel like a proper holiday with a cosy fire, a beautifully equipped house, a wonderful welcome (cake, tea/coffee/milk and bread on arrival) and the most immaculate standard of housekeeping an cleanliness. I must confess, I am always a bit nervous about cleanliness and my expectations were greatly exceeded by the standard of everything at this beautiful cottage. The owners couldn't have been more kind and helpful, always available should you need advice and pointers about the house or lovely local areas but never intrusive. We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this beautiful cottage, cooking meals at night, turning the fire on and playing the games that are there for guests to use. Beds were so comfortable and the bathrooms were warm and toasty with heated floors, you really couldn't fault any part of the stay. My only real regret was that we couldn't stay longer! We had a wonderful stay and genuinely cannot recommend it enough. If peace, tranquillity and a beautifully furnished and maintained cottage is what you are looking for, then Barn Owl is the one for you, 100%."

"Brandsby middle of beautiful countryside on edge of Howardian hills. Had a lovely relaxing time with family. Bungalow very well facilitated with double roomy on suite and twin room with shower next door along passageway. Lovely warm kitchen come sitting room with wood burner fire (my favourite). Lovely personal touches like welcoming cake, milk tea and coffee and even loaf of bread. Nice relaxing time, shame to finish holiday. Will definitely return."

"Barn Owl Cottage was an ideal base for our Yorkshire holiday. The cottage is wonderfully inviting, warm and cosy, equipped with everything you could need. The beds are really comfortable and the walk-in shower amazing! Wi-fi access enabled us to stay in contact with our family. Sadly it was not cold enough for us to light the wood burner. Maybe next time! We went from the cottage to York, using the Park and RIde; to Whitby for seaside and fish and chips; to Castle Howard; across the moor to Helmsley and Rievaulx Abbey as well as dining at excellent local inns. The owners were very helpful and the Welcome Pack provided was greatly appreciated. We are looking forward to a return visit."

"We have stayed in many places over time - but this was by far the best. It had all you could want and then some. Easy to find, magic views from kitchen window, central for just about everything north of the city of York. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone."

"This was a nice conversion, very comfortable, well equipped, and with a very friendly welcome. The showers were good, though the en-site shower room very cosy! The beds comfy and the kitchen well stocked. Excellent food and pubs around and in a good place for touring the area. The downside is the proximity to a fairly busy road, very busy at weekends, which surprised us since the road on the map looks quite quiet. The noise into the kitchen/sitting area is obvious despite double glazing. The bedrooms are furthest away so less of an issue. Some may not see this as an issue, not mentioned before on previous reviews, so just a reflection that we all had. I would recommend but only with a caution on the location. The only other comment is that there was no landline and mobile reception was awful/ non existent; worrying in case of an emergency."

"We arrived at this cottage to discover it was everything that was advertised. We were welcomed by the friendly owners. No details were left untouched. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything that you would need. The cottage was clean with a nice modern decor from bedding and luxurious walk in showers. The location was ideally situated close to all amenities and major routes to other areas in North Yorkshire. Just a short drive to York and the train station to whisk you away to other destinations. It was truly a home away from home and will recommend this location to friends and families!"

"Barn Owl Cottage is in the ideal location for visiting all areas of Yorkshire with fantastic views and stunning scenery. The cottage is spacious, spotlessly clean, well-equipped and the attention to detail in every room is outstanding. We loved the wood burner, wi-fi, comfy beds, exhilarating showers and the extensive library of information. This is truly a five star accommodation which we would highly recommend."

"What a find. The cottage was so comfortable and warm, decor excellent and it was very well equipped. We loved being close enough to visit York but in the countryside, we came away feeling very refreshed and relaxed. Lovely walking in the area. We hope to visit again soon and will recommend to our friends."

"Booked mid February for celebratIng our 11th Wedding anniversary, chosen as a result of the location, but also the marketed pictures and facilities! On arrival, nothing disappointed! All facilities, from the kitchen, to the log burner, to the powerful walk in showers and the very comfy bed were as expected and more! For me, a chance to revisit the places in North and East Yorkshire where I have many happy childhood holiday memories. The location was a great base to visit loads of places from. Thank you, we will recommend."
