Superb Accommodation

We all agreed this was the best accommodation we have stayed in. The boys particularly liked the hot tub, football pitch and games room, we barely saw them. Great lounge room and outdoor area. We spent the whole evening in the big dining and sitting room. Would definitely recommend.

Fun visit

The howgills barn is great accommodation for family get together. Lots of nice walks, Sedburgh right next door with good restaurants and bars. The accommodation is great where we could all sit together, catch up, dance and play games. The jacuzzi is also great. Also plenty of cooking facilities and fridge freezer space. All in all we had a great time

Stag weekend at Howgills Barn

In short, the property was perfect for us. The amenities on site were fantastic and much more than we expected. The games room, hot tub and tv room upstairs were big hits with our group and really added to our enjoyment of the weekend. The sports field with the football goals below the house was a real added bonus which we made full use of. Communication with the owners from start to finish was excellent. The flexibility for arriving and leaving the property was much appreciated and took a level of stress off of our shoulders. Having the village only 5-10 minutes walk away was also ideal. By the end of the weekend most of the group were discussing when we’d next be staying at the barn and I think that’s the best review you can get.

Wonderful visit with friends

My friends and I stayed at the Howgills Barn for four nights over New Year's. It was a wonderful stay and everyone said it was the best venue we have stayed in yet. The best part about the accommodation was probably the variety of spaces. As well as the large living/dining space, there was also a cosy sofa room upstairs (where the downstairs noise couldn't be heard), and a games room downstairs. The large living/dining space had big tables that were good for playing games, as well as for meal times, plus there was a sofa section at the end, which felt like it provided an additional space for people to hang out in. The two kitchens had all we needed and were well stocked with cooking equipment and crockery. Between them and the large additional drinks fridge, there was more than enough space for all of us to keep what we needed in the fridge. All the glasses we could need too, which was a real bonus. Rooms were quite small, but all fairly quiet and removed from the social rooms, which was great. Location was perfect. Walking distance to four or five pubs as well as to food shops. Plus we were able to set off on a big beautiful walk around the Howgills straight from the Barn. It was a brilliant stay and I would highly recommend that others stay there.

A truly Amazing stay

Recently visited for xmas get together for 14 of us. The barn was emaculate and the kitchen facilities were excellent. The location of the barn is perfect. Just a short walk into town and right at the foot of the fells. The hottub was incredible and a real highlight. We absolutely loved staying at the barn and would recommend to others.

Family gathering

We very much enjoyed our third stay at Howgills Barn. All facilities are very good, comfortable and suitable for kids (ours are aged 2-14). The hot-tub is a great asset, games room much used, and we always enjoy our annual family football match on the 5-a-side pitch down the lane. Space, cooking and storage, dishwasher and cleaning facilities are all very good.

Fabulous location and facilities for Fun weekend

A group of 23 really enjoyed our stay at Howgills barn. We loved the communal areas, outside hot tub area and the stunning location of Sedbergh. Some of the group were apprehensive about bunk beds but the beds were really comfy, the bedding was crisp white and we had en-suite facilities. The kitchen was so well equipped and thought had gone into so many little things (such as, a fantastic idea to have a tea and coffee area in the porch to save too many people trying to get into the compact kitchen!). We didn't even get chance to use the games room as the weather was great for walking and exploring the town - we will have to return!

What a place!

What an incredible place! Me and my friends enjoyed 2 fabulous nights at the barn and everyone said they thought the place was epic. The remoteness and beautiful views make you feel like you're in your own little oasis. They have thought of everything and the whole place is set up to entertain a big crowd. We have made memories we will cherish forever and I would not hesitate to book again. The whole process was very easy and everyone I encountered or spoke to were very friendly. Thank you for an incredible time!

Perfect Venue

My friends and I came here for 2 nights for a chilled out stag do. The venue was perfect. Really clean, could host many guests with activities on site. I met the owners of the barn whilst on site and they were so warm and welcoming. Would gladly return in future!

Perfect accommodation for a large group of friends and their children.

We had a wonderful 3 night stay at Howgills Barn this week. The barn was ideal for our group and provided all the facilities we could have hoped for. The accommodation was clean, comfortable and well maintained. The kitchen facilities offered everything we needed and more. All the bedrooms being en-suite was a real bonus. Finally the terrace, bbq and hot tub really made our stay as we were blessed with glorious weather. With the stunning scenery we could have been anywhere in Europe- bliss! Hoping to return next year, a big thank you to Nigel and his family for looking after us…and sorry again about the Elaine Paige medley on the first night!

A long overdue weekend at Howgills

I’ve just returned from a fabulous weekend away at Howgills Bunk Barn. The trip with friends was long overdue after rescheduling due to COVID, but it was definitely worth the wait and didn’t disappoint. The bunk barn itself had been improved with a new and improved kitchen plus bedding and towels provided throughout. The new TV was a hit with the teens as they could watch Netflix and YouTube on it apparently. I preferred to sit outside soaking up the beautiful view chatting with friends. We had some great walks and the pubs in Sedbergh had great outdoor seating. We sampled both the Bull and the Dalesman. We also had a great take away curry from the Mango Tree in Kirkby Stephen. The hot tub was amazing and enjoyed by everyone. As we left a team turned up to give it a deep clean. Altogether just a fantastically normal weekend with friends. Just what we’ve all been waiting for. Thanks so much Nigel and team for providing such excellent facilities! Our kids say it’s their favourite holiday of the year and I’ve got to say I agree!

Perfect Stag House

Myself and my friends stayed here for 2 nights and we absolutely loved it. Every room had something going on and there was enough space to accomodate way more than the 17 of us who went. The cleanliness and upkeep of the barn was amazing and the outdoor area with the hot tub and bbq was fantastic. There are plenty of walks nearby up the two hills behind the barn and the town was not too far walk away either where there were shops and pubs ect. (15 mins). The table tennis arena is fantastic and the bedroom facilities are basic but nice and clean so we were also happy with this (best shower pressure ever btw). You can order am Asda or tesco shop directly to the barn as well so you can really relax and not worry about a thing. Thanks alot!

School residential

We took 27 children to the barn on a 3 day residential. The barn was spotless when we arrived! The staff could not have done anymore to make sure we had everything we needed on arrival. The location of the barn is awesome and perfect for any form of school trip. The outdoor meadow provides a great space for activities or just free play. Thank you so much to the staff at the barn for their great service once again.

Barn Stay

Prior to our visit, communication was excellent and a great service was provided to meet the needs for the duration of the stay. The barn’s facilities were superb, and the whole accommodation was very clean. Check in/out was incredibly easy and contact details were provided for any questions that we had during our time there. We were also provided contact details for a takeaway service which delivered some great food. The rooms with en-suite bathrooms were very comfortable and the separate upstairs lounge area was great to relax in. Thanks again for a fantastic weekend; I would certainly recommend and would love to book again in the future!
