Remarkable barn conversion for 6 & 2 dogs, w/ free WiFi, open fire & 50 yards from the pub

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (14)
"The property was excellent, a very warm house. We had confusion, when we arrived. We could not find the key safe. It was dark. We got access as the property was open for us. The key safe was located next day to the left-hand side of door, hidden by some plants. The location is fantastic with wonderful views everywhere in the dales. The walking was good too especially to Keld, where we saw some waterfalls."
