We have been to this cottage three times and want to go back tomorrow. There are lots of delightful details in the decor and the hot tub is a terrific bonus. Specially with the bottle of Prosecco kindly left for us.

Roy
Cottage was comfy, very well equipped and the garden was really secure for the dog. The field was amazing for our German Shepherd and he loved it.

A wonderful stay, we couldnt have asked for more for taking our son on his first holiday.

Weve just spent a relaxing few days at this stunning cottage.

Our second visit to Field Barn Cottage and we hope to return again. The Cottage is very well equipped and set in lovely countryside. The garden was perfectly secure for our two Border Terriers. We also loved the hot-tub. Very well situated for visiting the lovely town of Richmond and also Ripon. Fountains Abbey (National Trust) is a gem.

Julia
Lovely rural location and small but perfectly formed cottage! The properly enclosed garden was a really important thing for me so I didnt have to worry about the dog getting out into the fields and the wood-fired hot tub with countryside views was really great!
Hayley
Wonderful cottage in a beautiful, peaceful location. Our 3rd visit and will definitely be returning. Perfect for dog owners as large, totally secure and safe garden with plenty of places to walk. Hot tub is fabulous and facilities great Had a perfect time, thank you.
Colin
Nice property, great location and secure field is excellent. All mod cons but no freezer or freezer compartment in fridge. This was my biggest disappointment.
Hayley
Lovely cottage and a very peaceful location. Garden completely secure for dogs.
Rebecca
Had a lovely time, just me and my dog stayed for a week. Really quiet location which is just what I needed, the secure field was great for my GSD and the cottage was really comfortable and cosy! The welcome pack was lovely as well. The owner was also really helpful and friendly! Would definitely stay again!
Laurie
Absolutely beautiful and such a cosy holiday home. The cottage had everything you could need. The area was very quiet and we went on some lovely walks. The owners kindly let us know we could contact them if we needed anything but otherwise they completely left us to enjoy our stay. And most importantly the garden was fully secure so we didnt have tRead moreo worry about our dogs safety. I would 100% recommend. Hide
Neil
Lovely cosy property, comfortable and warm, WiFi, great for the dogs and walkers. Great surroundings, lovely and quiet but easy access to everywhere via the A66 and A1.
John
Nice cottage and very well enclosed if you have dogs. Very good standard in particular the bathroom and bedroom. Added bonus was the wood burning hot tub, but takes a bit of getting used to and planning. Plenty of pubs not too far away, so although this is a quiet place for a get away, there are some nice places to explore.
Jennifer
On arrival, the high chair and travel cot were not there. I contacted Sophie and she came down to sort this within 15mins - amazing service , thank you. Lovely cottage, lovely garden! Most important and the reason we booked is we have a highly reactive german shepherd and have stayed in dog friendly places but they are never dog secure (she has cliRead morembed over dry stone walls before) - this place was PERFECT for the dog! Everything in the cottage was great. Hide
Paul
My wife and I stayed for a week and had a fabulous time. The cottage was very clean and tidy. A great space for the dogs with access to a field so they can have a good run around all enclosed so no worries of them escaping. The hosts Sopphie and Kieth were amazing always happy to help should it be needed. All in all, a fabulous holiday.
John
What a beautiful cottage, in such a peaceful, rural location! A perfect base to explore both North Yorkshire, & it's neighbouring counties, with Darlington being only just up the road for groceries/essentials. The cottage was spotlessly clean, really comfy bed, & has all the facilities you need, plus the Welcome Pack was a lovely bonus. But the mosRead moret important thing for us, was the completely secure garden for our 2 dogs, & the use of the adjoining secure field, meant we could completely relax. Hide
Hayley
Beautiful cottage with a totally secure garden for the dogs. Hot tub was fabulous, would definitely recommend.
Niki
Had the best time so chilled & relaxing. Its fabulous for the dogs you can totally chill in the hot tub without worrying about the dogs escaping its totally enclosed which is a big thing for us with 2 nosey beagles. The cottage is so cozy & comfortable. The bed was comfy & tv in there was a bonus! Fab shower & tv with Netflix in the lounge. Having a washing machine was great especially after a wet walk. Great location to visit other areas we will definitely be returning loved it!
Ryan
Cottage was lovely and cosy with beautiful scenery surrounding. It was lovely to watch the horses and hares frolicking around in the fields opposite while enjoying the hot tub. The best dog friendly accommodation we have stayed at, as our dog was able to run about outside to his hearts content without a worry.
Hartmut
Very cozy cottage in rural surroundings. Nice completely fenced garden with a hot tub. Best part for our dogs was the large field to run in. We have very appreciated the welcome package. There are nice pubs only a few minutes drive away.
Rebecca
We loved our stay at field barn cottage. The owners were great and the little touches and welcome pack were lovely and well thought out. The barn was clean and welcoming and the enclosed garden and enclosed field were perfect for our border collie. We had such a nice relaxing stay and it felt so peaceful. There's also a few shops not too far away w hich was great too.
Victoria
A beautiful cottage in a great location, hosts are wonderful. This is the perfect place for a relaxing getaway. Would not hesitate to recommend a stay here, cant wait to return ­­­­­
Julie
This has been our 4th visit. The cottage is ideal for our dogs- a border collie and very nervous mixed breed rescue. They can be let straight into the secure garden and then we walk around the secure field with no need for leads. They love it and we can relax. We love the new hot tub!
Sharon
Lovely cottage in lovely setting. Thoughtful little touches from the owners. Great location for visiting parks , beaches, market towns and so on. We have never felt so chilled out on a holiday, the peace, the hot tub, the garden for the dog, and the adjacent field, bliss. Will go back.
Victoria
Beautiful cottage in a really lovely setting. The hosts have thought of everything and lots of lovely little touches. Most importantly really secure garden with access to a bigger contained field which meant our 2 very energetic Rottweilers had lots of lovely space. Would highly recommend and would definitely go back.
Faye
Amazing weekend away for my partners 30th birthday. A lovely quiet get away with everything you need. Peaceful but also not too far to drive/walk to things. The cottage itself was very clean, smelt beautiful and fresh as soon as you walk in. All the utensils you can think of and a very thoughtful welcome basket with a bottle of Prosecco chilling in the fridge on arrival. Will be back and will recommend to others!
Andrew
What a wonderful time away we had, having our very own dog field was brilliant and the dogs didnt want to leave. Lovely cosy cottage very clean and tidy and decorated for new year. The owners have made a beautiful get away and one that we will be coming back too.
Dawn
Absolutely loved staying at the cottage, so quiet and pieceful, plenty to see and do, and had time to just chill, spend time with my family, will per cent be back as soon as we can, thank you
Robert
Amazing ickle cottage, was perfect for relaxing get away.
Sophia
Wow first impressions of this cottage - absolutely gorgeous! I was slightly nervous at first as it was only myself (26F) and my dog travelling and we arrived at night time when it was dark and the location seemed quite remote, however I soon felt very safe after turning all the outside lighting on and seeing how secure it was. We went on some amazi ng walks in Yorlshire, had some fantastic food, the locals were lovely and friendly. The BEST UK break we have had re area & accommodation. Thank you!
Jane
Gorgeous little cosy barn it's amazing to see how it looked before the conversion, especially loved the garden and hot tub we had some lovely evenings out there and Riley the pointer loved the field out the back it's really secure so he run to his hearts content would definitely return, Jane and Nigel 4/11/23 to 11/11/23
Faye
Beautiful cosy cottage and loved the little extras. Everything was provided and a great location for nice places to eat and nice country walks. Would highly recommend!
Amanda
We have had an amazing week, everything we needed was provided including dog beds and bowls, we could have packed half of what we did. The dogs loved chasing around in the field and meeting the horses, we loved chilling in the hit tub. Far enough away to avoid the hustle and bustle, but a short drive to some lovely restaurants and scenery. We would love to come back. Thank you for having us. Mandy and Mark and Sulley and Jude xxxx
Deirdre
Wonderful cottage, beautifully decorated . with lots of personal touches like the personalised welcome. Lovely welcome hamper and fantastic hot tub. Really secure and dog friendly garden. We didn't want to leave!

Richard
Just back from a fantastic stay at Field Barn Cottage. The property is a superbly modernised barn in a great setting surrounded by farmland. It contains everything you will need for a very comfortable and relaxing stay. Excellent walks are available from the door. The beautiful town of Richmond is a short journey away. The garden is completely secu re for dogs so we could relax knowing that they were safe. The hot - tub was great in the evening! We hope to return in the future. A great week!
Peter
Lovely property. A good base from which to explore the local area. Perfect for dogs!

Lovely place to stay, clean and tidy and all the amenities we needed. Enjoyed spending evenings in the hot tub. The dogs enjoyed running and playing in the garden.

Big Sheep - EX39 5AP
about 14 Miles
This is a recommended day out for families with young children visiting the Bedale area of Yorkshire.  Visit the farm and receive a warm welcome as well as a guided tour.  You will have the chance to bottle feed the lambs, bath a pig and handle some of the smaller animals.  Kids will love the big sandpit and the outdoor play area. There is also a cafe and indoor play area for when the weather is not on your side.
Lightwater Valley - HG4 3HT
about 21 Miles
Situated in the Ripon area of North Yorkshire this popular theme park makes a fantastic day out for the whole family.  The more daring will love the big and thrilling rides such as Raptor Attack, The Ultimate and Trauma Tower.  For the little ones there are some excellent attractions such as Flying Camels, Dodgems and a Magic Wheel.  Toddlers will like the Dragon Boats and the Lightwater Express amongst other things. There are over 40 rides and attractions in total and we think this is excellent value for money too.  If you book your tickets in advance online you can save even more money and beat the queues.
Fountains Abbey - HG4 3DY

This is an outstanding world heritage site located close to Ripon in the North Yorkshire area. Nature lovers will be in their element with an abundance of wide open spaces to explore and there are special guided tours for families.  Some of the highlights may include seeing wild deer and bats during your visit.  The grounds are fantastic to wander round but there is also an Elizabethan Mansion, Victorian Church, Georgian Water Garden and the finest example of Cistercian Abbey ruins in the country - Well worth a visit!
