Guest comments
We stayed at Scar Brow in July 09 and the whole family from a one year old to a 66 year old thoroughly enjoyed the cottage, its surroundings and the welcome/service we received. We are walkers and the estate, together with many local rights of way offered us many opportunities.
I would recommend Deansbiggin Barn to anyone wish to have a top quality break. The property is in a wonderful location and the facilities and furnishing are first class I can honestly say it can't be beaten I would give it a grading of 10 star for an overall quality Holiday break.
I recently stayed at Underley Grange for the weekend with a group of close friends and cannot recommend it highly enough. Whilst the grounds are stunning, the house itself is beautiful, extremely comfortable and spacious and has been done up with amazing attention to detail - everything you could want is just where you'd expect it to be. I will certainly be back.
