Property code: OC-76650

This charming cottage near the Yorkshire town of Settle is bursting with comfort and character, making it the perfect rural retreat for friends/families. Not only is it situated on the south-eastern edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, it is also close to the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which allows guests to discover the abundance of beautiful scenery and wildlife in both of these stunning areas. You'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to getting out and enjoying the fresh, country air, as there are plenty of walking and cycling routes/trails on your doorstep and beyond. This wonderful home allows you to immerse yourself in the tranquillity of the countryside, but is conveniently located only 1.5 miles from the lively market town of Settle with its range of independent shops and eateries and a wealth of heritage. After a busy day exploring, you'll be relieved to return home for a relaxing soak in the private hot tub. It is one of two properties at this location.

Sympathetically restored, this property's wealth of original features have been beautifully incorporated into its clean, contemporary-cottage style. A neutral palette has been used throughout with muted colours, warm wooden tones and high quality fixtures and fittings adding a touch of class.

On entering the property, you'll find yourself in the kitchen/diner where the light walls and contemporary lighting create a bright and inviting space. Making clever use of the space, the kitchen is built under the staircase. Whilst it is compact, it is modern and well-equipped to ensure you have everything you need to cook up some treats to be enjoyed at the large dining table, where there's plenty of seating for everyone. Around the corner, you will find yourself in the lounge. Here, the original fireplace and wood burner is the focal point, with a range of comfortable seating to sink into at the end of the day.

Also on the ground floor is the master double bedroom with its large en-suite wet room, which doubles up as a utility room with the washing machine cunningly tucked into the wall.

On the first floor, exposed beams and quirky windows add rustic charm to the further two double bedrooms. Both rooms have a Smart TV and en-suite bathrooms that have been finished to a very high standard.

Outside, there are courtyards to the front and rear of the property. To the front, there is dining furniture for al fresco dining as well as the private hot tub. To the rear, there is another enclosed courtyard, which is perfect for dogs and children. There is secure bike racking available as well as off road parking for two cars and two electric charge points.

We really enjoyed our stay at Boo Barn which is in a lovely, quiet location. We were out all day walking the Dales Way but would love to come again and explore the surrounding area. After a long walk every day the hot tub was a welcome luxury

Lovely cottage and excellent location. Very clean and well equipped with 3 double en suite rooms that were all equally lovely. The hot tub was a nice touch as was the provisions and bottle of wine left for us. The only negative for me was the lack of kitchen cupboard space for items that didnt go in the fridge however we were a group of 6 adults soRead more perhaps we had more provisions than normal. Hide

A real gem of a Barn that has been lovingly restored while retaining so much character. The cottage is comfortable warm and the hot tub a real bonus after a days walking. The property is in a peaceful location yet close to settle with good eating out options and a swimming pool. Thank you again we loved our holiday

A very tastfully and beautifully furnished, compact property. Ample parking for 3 cars. It worked well for our party of 3 couples who spent most of the day out of the property. But be aware that the kitchen, dining and lounge area, whilst having made clever use of the available space, is small.

Absolutely gorgeous place. Owner was easily contactable and provided the extra equipment needed for my elderly disabled mum. Disabled room is fantastic. Mum wanted to take the bed home! Very clean and comfortable, and well equipped. Greeted by a fresh loaf of bread, tea and coffee and a pint of milk. We really felt at home. Location convenient for Read morethe Dales, and local walks. Settle is a short drive away (or a shortish walk) with plenty of pubs, takeaways, places to eat and quirky local shops. Hide

This was a wonderful space in a relaxing setting. Beautiful surroundings. Plenty of walks to do straight from the cottage. We did the three peaks and so the hot tub (with powerful jets) was hugely appreciated. Really easy communication and checkin / out. Highly recommended.
