Situated in the picturesque village of Rylstone, where local Women’s Institute was responsible for the famous charity calendar that later became a box office hit film 'Calendar Girls'. With beautiful scenery surrounding the area, it is a paradise for anyone who enjoys the outdoors. The beautiful Dales' village of Grassington, situated on the river Wharfe, is close by, providing excellent walks and traditional pubs serving home-cooked meals. Just 5 miles away is the bustling town of Skipton with its medieval castle and multitude of quaint shops. For days out that all the family can enjoy, visit the Abbey ruins and Priory at Bolton Abbey, Thornton Hall Farm or the elegant spa town of Harrogate.

The main entrance is on ground level, head through and look forward to spending your evenings relaxing in this incredible living space, as you walk straight into the wonderful lounge/diner. With exposed stone walls and an impressive dining table at one end and comfortable sofas and cosy soft furnishings at the other, this room is the main hub of the house and the perfect place to spend quality time with all of the family. Take two steps up into the wonderful, bright kitchen, boasting vaulted ceilings and original beams. There is also a spacious breakfast bar where you can enjoy a hearty breakfast whilst planning the day's events. Any budding chefs will enjoy whipping up a home-cooked meal here as the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could need, including an electric double oven, induction hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, wine fridge and Nespresso coffee machine.

Brooke Barn is a great place to stay particularly if you are a large group, more spacious than it looks on the photos with a kitchen perfect for socialising, a large dinning table and plenty of comfortable sofas. Downstairs toilet, en-suite and family bathroom. Location is great, very handy for Skipton. Can recommend the Devonshire Arms, a short caRead morer drive away, and hiring a canal boat. We had a fab weekend everything we needed was provided Hide

Brooke Barn is a lovely cottage, very comfortable and well equipped, Perfect for relaxing and thr games room was a real hit. The location is great for day trips and some lovely walks in the doorstep. We walked to both the Angel at Hetton and the Devonshire arms, both lovely. The enclosed outdoor space is wonderful if there is good weather. The onlyRead more star dropped is that it is located next to a road, which is quite noisy, but didnt detract from overall enjoyment of holiday at Brooke Barn. Hide

This was a beautiful, spacious and well maintained property which provided our whole family ( 8 adults and two dogs) with room to lounge, cook and eat downstairs and large well furnished bedrooms upstairs. The location was idyllic, with lovely dog walks on the door step, and the National Park a shirt drive away.

Really lovely cottage, we loved everything about it. The water boost didnt actually work for us so luckily having the 2 cottages meant we could still have showers!

The cottage is in a great location for visiting Grassington, Malham , Bolton Abbey , Burnsall and surrounding Dales. It is comfortable to stay in with good spacious living accommodation. Good pubs and restaurants near for food . Weather was great so we used the yard for eating out most nights .

Stunning Barn accommodation. Fully equipped with everything needed including BBQ and outdoor furniture. We walked to the nearby pub, The Angle and visited Grassington, Malham and Skipton. It was very handy having a bus stop so close to the Barn too! Sarah Rose was extremely helpful and very friendly. Thank you. We had a perfect family stay.
