Ingleborough Barn Reviews

Beverley
We celebrated a big family Christmas at Ingleborough Barn this year. It was absolutely brilliant. Two gorgeous, almost identical barns, that are interlinked by a door. but are accessible by their own front doors. The barns were warm and comfortable and had everything that you could wish for. The owners had decorated the barn for Christmas, it was lovely thank you. We used the hot tub several times over our week long stay and admired the incredible views. We had a problem with the upstairs heating on our first day but we rang the owner and she arrived and fixed it, no fuss, within the hour. Absolutely perfect.
A beautiful place and absolutely stunning location! The host Janet was brilliant too fantastic family time for New Yr.
Ingleborough Barn was comfortable, clean and very well equipped. We had a fantastic weekend with family, the amazing views from the barn and the large hot tub made the weekend.
A lovely stay with fabulous views in a beautiful area. The barn is perfectly situated for exploring without driving far. We had a wonderful week. Any problems were resolved very quickly by Janet. The fridge was smaller than we expected for the number of people.
We had a wonderful stay at Ingleborough Barn. There was 11 of us 6 adults and 5 children staying in the accommodation. It was a perfect size and had everything that we needed. The hot tub is a lovely addition, with wonderful views of the surrounding countryside. Owners extremely helpful when we had a problem with water one morning. Lovely area to stay in, enjoyed a walk from Clapham pass Ingleborough Cave. Thanks for a brilliant stay.

What a wonderful stay! stunning scenery, owners so helpful, especially with allowing the kids to see the animals on the farm. spacious inside and out. hot tub was a hit, though we had to wait a day until the chemicals were balanced.place was clean, beds comfortable and plenty sitting space. supermarket orders struggled to find the exact location. would highly recommend!
Leanne
Really great property. We were 12 adults undertaking the 3 peaks challenge. The property was a good location and hot tub very welcomed afterwards! The water in the property is a private supply so doesnt taste very nice and we werent fussy water drinks. This is fine as we drank bottled but it would be helpful to know. This didnt spoil our trip at all though and would recommemd it
Caroline
The property was lovely and was perfect for our group numbers and had amazing views of the three peaks but a few things let it down. The smell from the water in the taps was terrible. We read reviews before we arrived so everyone decided to buy water which was quite a big expense but we chose to use it for drinking and cooking. The smell was bad even when people showered and by the second day the smell had drifted into one of the twin rooms. This smell unfortunately put us off using the hot tub.
We are just back from our week away in Ingleborough barn & have had a lovely time it has fabulous views which we all agreed on but it is remote so if you're looking for a pub or corner shop you'd be disappointed. The house itself was good for 8 adults 1 dog & 5 kids aged 1 15. The hot tub was great fun but we thought the house needed a bit of an update one of the kitchen cupboards had a handle hanging off, the TVs were old no netflix or sky which we have had in other houses & we could only get one of them to work. The shower over the bath in the downstairs bathroom was very slippy as has been mentioned by other guests previously & had no gran rail. The iron beds weren't the most comfortable & creaked every time you moved. The water tasted & smelt disgusting so went through a lot of bottled water. I think if all this was rectified it would be greatly improved.
Robert
Lovely venue property excellent. Can't wait to repeat
This is a a great location for a family or group holiday. Over looking a panoramic view of the country side, with Ingleborough as the highlight. The accommodation was spacious, with good facilities. The owner was very helpful and accommodating .
The cottage was fabulous. we did notice a cracked window in the downstairs bathroom. Well equipped and lovely and clean. We met Andrew and Janet who were lovely and invited us to the farm, where the grandchildren feed the lambs. An experience they will never forget. We was blessed with perfect weather, so spent a lot of our time in the garden, which was nice and secure for my dog and in the hottub. The perfect place to spend quality time with my family.
Angela
The house was lovely and clean. Well equipped and maintained. Gorgeous views and we were very lucky to have glorious sunshine all weekend.
Sheila
What a lovely holiday our family had , a warm home with lovely views . The two cottages were perfect for our large family group. Lots of space for everyone. We enjoyed playing games on the large table , and it was nice to eat meals on the table prepared in the well equipped two kitchens . It was perfect for our New Years Eve family break, and the Christmas decorations were a nice touch.
We had a great Christmas in this lovely property. Comfortable sofas, comfortable beds and lots of room for the 10 of us. We loved the decorations. Two kitchens made it perfect for cooking Christmas lunch as we had 2 ovens and 2 fridges. The hot tub was on all the time and it was lovely to sit in it and look at the lights on the building. Janet was friendly and helpful many many thanks! One of our party was quite elderly and liked the ground floor bedroom with walkin shower. It would have been even better though if there had been a few grab rails in the shower, which he found a bit slippy. Also perhaps a grab rail to help him get on and off the toilet. And the step between the 2 halves of the building was too steep for him. One other thing the wifi only really works in half of the building.
Good location well equipped warm and cosy. Great property for extended families to spend quality time together with beautiful views . Very comfortable with large bedrooms and bathrooms. Second stay and will return .
A lovely property located in an excellent position overlooking the Yorkshire Three Peaks. Plenty of nearby activities for adults and children, good eating locations and excellent walks for all levels of activity. Can thoroughly recommend The Highwayman at Burrow near Kirkby Lonsdale for excellent food and ales. Janet, the owner, is extremely helpful and responsive to contact only too willing to help. Allinall, the family party of 10 enjoyed a wonderful week.
What a great place to stay we literally count not fault anything exceptionally clean well maintained all you needed for a great break away! Oh and the hot tub was fabulous too!
Absolutely gorgeous getaway for the whole family! Stunning views and all amenities available that are needed. The house is split into 2 which was nice as we had 2 sides of the family up.. theres 2 kitchens which was very useful. Good size rooms and did not feel small at all. The one bed was a little noisy double bed but other than this theres no complaints at all. The owner was also very helpful. Will definitely recommend to others. Thank you!
Francoise
We really had a wonderful weekend . Them Barn was spacious and very clean and very well appointed .tThank you Janet ! We will be back!!
Ingleborough barn is an ideal place to holiday. So peaceful & the views are to die for...stunning !! The owners are lovely and very helpful if we had any questions. Plenty of space in the barn, very comfortable. Unfortunately we did notice some things broken & some holes in the plaster from door handles. We had a fabulous holiday and I would definitely go back.
Joanne
The house was amazing. We stayed as a family of 14 and the facilities at the house were amazing... something for everyone and the hosts were fabulous. Cannot recommend this house enough. We will be back.
Our family had a lovely stay at Ingleborough Barn. The setting is beautiful and we were lucky to have the weather to match. Kitchens are well equipped and house is comfortable. We loved the hot tub and secure garden too. I think a floor plan could be helpful for people who have never stayed before. Thank you for a very enjoyable stay. We hope to come back.
A group of 10 stayed at the cottage for The weekend before walking the peaks and celebrating a birthday. Lots of space, clean, great comfortable beds and fully equipped with everything need. We will definitely be back again!!
This is a really good property for family or friends who want somewhere they can stay together. Plenty of plates, mugs, glasses etc and having two dishwashers meant we could load one put it on and then start on the other one. We were a family group of 13 ranging in age from age 288 and the property worked for everyone. Having bedrooms and bathrooms on both levels was especially good for less mobile family members. The hottub was very popular and used each day. The views from the property are outstanding and its very peaceful when outside yet easy to reach and no distance from Lancaster.
Ingleborough Barn is a lovely cottage in beautiful settings. It was clean, spacious and had everything we needed for a great weekend away with friends. The conjoining door between the two cottages is such a great idea and the hot tub was a welcome addition. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic location, beautiful cottage, plenty of room to entertain in groups with a stunning view. Can easily walk to the local village of Wrey which is picture perfect!
Shellene
The cottage is stunning in amazing countryside. It has everything you could possibly need. It is so clean and the host Janet made us feel very welcome and comfortable. We would certainly stay again.
Second time returning and the barn did not disappoint, catering for all our needs. A great place to stay with friends and family with easy access to great walks, pubs and villages. The window in the smaller half of the barn in the twin room leaks and possibly causing an issue on the ceiling in the kitchen.
Bradley
Amazing stay, the barn is brilliant and exactly as advertised, we have saved the details for future use as we will be back. Only minor thing, there was no instructions for the heating, we worked it out but with so many thermostats and underfloor switches around it was difficult to know which one worked with what.
Brilliant time had by all. Absolutely fantastic facilities,everything provided for a great break away. We would love to go back again.
This property is lovely, with great facilities. It's perfect for groups and the owners are so friendly and helpful. We hope to go back again!
This property was ideal for 3 families 6 adults and 5 children with 6 bedrooms split between the 2 linked barns with inside doors allowing free access for the children to play with their cousins. The huge table in one of the kitchens enabled all of us to sit down together for meals. Barn was clean and very comfortable with the underfloor heating and plenty of space bedrooms and living area. The hot tub was a firm favourite and we used it most days even in the rain and hail. Well located, only 30 mins to Morecombe Bowling, Trampoline Park, beach and 30 mins to Ingleborough Cave. All these are worth a visit as well as the Lune Valley Swimming pool at Hornby 15 mins away. For a great meal visit the George and Dragon at Wray, may have to book but food is excellent especially the Lamb Henry. Food shopping Essentials in High Bentham CoOp and Spar and if you are there look out for the Black Pig Cafe Great Coffee and Bacon Sandwich on a wet day. The owner Janet is just down the lane at the Farm if there are any questions which is good to know but we had no problems at all. Would highly recommend
Ideal for for us as a multi generation family staying over Christmas. Pretty awful gales cannot be blamed on owners and we still managed to enjoy the hot tub on several occasions. Might be helpful to include floor plans in the property information so people can be sure the layout will work for them. Also, Sykes cottages needs to sort out its relationship with Vrbo as we originally tried to book through them and were a little concerned that their listing didnt confirm our booking or payments. Lovely property and would like to return to explore the area in warmer months
Maxine
Water issues at property going back 14 months but was supposedly ok to drink. When arrived at property was informed that water had failed a health and safety test but if boiled would be safe to drink. Owner left a 5 litre bottle of water for 10 adults for 3 days!!!! Water tasted disgusting even when boiled. When asked where we could buy more we were told coop in Bentham. No offer to provide us with more. 2 of the beds were not made up. When contacted owner as no sheets could be found. We were made to feel like it was our fault as owner asked 'really, which room is it?' Issues with hot tub on arrival were told was a net was available to fish out any leaves. Lid would not stay on as clips were all broken apparently only a week old. Due to issues with lid it was nearly empty after day 1 and water cold as lid would not stay on so unable to use. Owner did not come to check cleanliness or water levels during the stay. No outside lighting so difficult to use hot tub at night, Paths around barn very slippery, even worse when wet. Would not visit again.
2nd stay at the barn and this time was even better than the first was exactly as we remembered which is what brought us back. Love this stay in every way and thank you Janet for being so helpful and welcoming.
Well kept and maintained property. We were looking for a place which has a cosy cottage feel but also modern kitchen and bathroom facilities which was exactly what we found at Inglebrorough. Secure garden and hot tub with great views was a huge plus point for us. Had a lovely long weekend despite the little inconvenience due to electric outage because of the storm must say the emergency services were very quick to restore it.
Fabulous cottage ,well equipped. Hosts were very helpful and acted Swiftly with any requests Farmer was fabulous with everyone ,we could all get involved with milking and the calves ,nothing to much trouble . Fabulous location .
Stephen
Probably the best holiday cottage we have stayed in to date. Top marks in all departments for a large family group with dogs. Modern, plenty of space, comfortable and secure both cottage and grounds. Hot tub a hit with everyone even when raining. Secluded but not too far from places of interest, parks, soft play to keep the children happy. Owners very friendly and helpful. Many thanks for a great week. Would highly recommend.
