Hill Brook Barn Reviews

Howard
We found the barn easily using the hosts Grace directions and was pleasantly surprised at how much better looking it was than the photos , they definitely don't do justice to the beautiful surrounding fields and the tasteful dcor and good quality furniture, as well as all the outside furniture on the surrounding patios a barbecue, sun loungers, chairs, and even a bench situated near a stream. Plenty of places to sunbathe and relax as well as dipping into the nearby hot tub. The host Grace was warm and welcoming and showed us round informing us of how to work everything and what her home offered for a fun filled and relaxing holiday. We stepped into a large beautiful hallway with large windows, which provided comfy chairs, a table covered in magazines and books, which was a lovey place for us to relax in, when it was raining. This led us to an open plan kitchen which was packed full of everything you needed to cook a meal from scratch, as well as bake a desert, including recipe books for guidance. The large American fridge freezer could hold 2 weeks worth of groceries and a lovely dining table and chairs completed the whole dining experience. There was a utility room with a washing machine that was easy to use and an airier for drying the clothes. There are large radiators throughout the property which kept every room warm and cosy. Especially the lounge, which had a big comfy sofa and chairs and a tv with all the channels you need for a cosy night in as well as games and jigsaw puzzles that kept us entertained. The bedrooms each have a different view of the lovely surrounding countryside as well as their own luxurious ensuite bathrooms , in the morning I could, from my bed watch the sun come up, it was like an expensive painting. And I enjoyed watching the antics of the farm's sheep quickly grazing from one field to another they were so fast!. There is a choice of beds, King, double or single, and they were all comfy with lovely clean quality bedding that coordinated with the dcor. Grace provided leaflets on different circular walks you can try, but we were only there for a few days so we visited a few country styled pubs nearby instead, which were welcoming and cosy, but we enjoyed this lovely home and the surroundings so much we are booking again for maybe 1 2 weeks quite soon, to try these walks out.
Perfect cottage in perfect surroundings. Hope to time back in the summer.

Another wonderful week at Hill Brook Barn. I am really lucky to have been twice this year! I grew up in Grindleton and try now to stay at Hill Brook when I am home visiting. I would absolutely recommend staying here, especially if you are looking for peace and quiet in stunning countryside whilst having access to all the Ribble Valley and Forest of Bowland have to offer. I love to sit and take in Pendle, the hares, sheep, pheasant and deer and curl up in front of the fire in the evening. Thank you Grace and John once again.
Jennifer
The best equipped holiday cottage we have stayed in
We stayed at Hill Brook Barn two years ago and found it just as comfortable and very well equipped again. Grace was very welcoming and helpful about walks near to the barn. The area has lots of circular walks, of varying distances, and plenty of history in its buildings and people. Definitely worth visiting.
Christine
Superb barn conversion, extremely comfortable and very clean. Stunning views and so relaxing Thank you Grace and John for a wonderful week
The property is in a beautiful spot with extensive views in all directions. We really enjoyed the scenery when relaxing on the large wellfurnished patio or lounging in the hot tub. Grace the owner was very kind and helpful. There are plenty of walks in the area and lots of places to visit. Skipton Castle was a hit. The beds are big and comfy, the bathrooms excellent with loads of hot water. The kitchen is the bestequipped we've ever had! We highly recommend Hill Brook Barn and hope to pay a return visit.

This property is as good as it says it is on the reviews. A modernized & very spacious barn, fully stocked with all the amenities you'll need. In a stunning & peaceful location, we saw plenty sheep, cows, rabbits, lovely plants & so much more... Binoculars were a great idea! Showers, Beds, Kitchen all stunning & 100 clean. Plenty bathrooms for convenience. We used what3words obviouscalibrateoutgrown to find the exact location as its not yet on google maps. A huge thank you from us all, Grace & John, for your service with a smile!!
Elaine
An absolutely lovely barn. Very spacious and scrupulously clean. The owners were very pleasant and helpful and always on hand if we needed anything. The hot tub was very welcome and the four bathrooms meant we were never far away for a rinse down afterwards. The kitchen was better equipped than my own and the adjoining patio was lovely and spacious. The bedrooms were lovely with high quality pillows and bedding so we all had great sleeps. The main positive for us was the gorgeous setting with surrounding farmland and stunning scenery. Can highly recommend the barn and we hope to be back again in the future.
We had an absolutely fantastic time here! Lovely clean property, it had everything we needed to enjoy our stay and is definitely on the list to come back again!

Fantastisch huis om hier te verblijven. Wat een rust en prachtige omgeving. Heerlijke bedden, douche en gemak.
Some initial difficulty with the surface coming off the main road , which I m sure looked worse after a seven hour journey beware the potholes etc especially off Sawley Road and by the School . The holiday cottage itself was outstanding. Other reviews have waxed lyrical and rightly so. Wonderful accommodation and location and great hosts. If you enjoy peace and quiet and being immersed in nature whilst enjoying all the amenities of a beautiful home, this is for you. The owners take pride in the Barn and quite rightly so . Built with care and love and managed the same way. Our dealings with Sykes however were woeful but that s not one to go into here. Thank you to Grace and John for a fabulous stay and for opening your home up to us. We very much hope to see you again. Tim and Amanda
Melanie
My third visit! I come back because I love this place. It is beautiful, peaceful. clean, comfortable and the hosts are wonderful and go above and beyond. It feels like home. This visit, the whole family was here for my son's wedding at St Ambrose in Grindleton. Hill Brook was a very special part of this celebration. Thank you Grace and John.
Stephen
What a perfect holiday cottage, the best we have been to. So quiet, peaceful, comfortable and great owners who were so helpful. We would definitely recommend Hill Brook Barn to anyone. We live in South Australia but we will be back in the future. Thank you
Wow! What a superb barn conversion. Spacious, comfortable and beautifully appointed property in a stunning rural location. The views from the barn were amazing and we spotted so much wildlife. Binoculars are a must when you visit the barn. Our stay could not have been better and the owner Grace was most helpful and friendly during our stay. I will be recommending to family and friends and we have made special memories at Hill Brook Barn. Thank you.
Philippa
The perfect spot for a family getaway over Easter! The owners were absolutely lovely and made sure we had everything we needed. The property itself was fantasticimmaculately clean, beautifully maintained, and so well equipped that I felt like I was in my own kitchen! It felt incredibly safe, and the kids had a blast running around and exploring outdoors on sunny days. On the rainy ones, there were plenty of puzzles and games to keep us entertained indoors. Were already looking forward to coming back in the future!
Everything was wonderful! The barn was fantastic and in beautiful surroundings.
It was a perfect home from home and we wanted for nothing. The owners were lovely and the scenery breathtaking. Beautiful and clean inside. Would definitely book again. Highly recommended.
Graham
We had a lovely Christmas with family at Hill Brook Barn. It's a beautiful setting and the house is cosy, comfortable and wellequipped. We're looking forward to going back!
Beautiful property in stunning location. Grace went above and beyond to look after us. Weve had a fabulous week.
Coral Anne
Hill Brook Barn is highly recommended. We enjoyed our weekend immensely and were very impressed. It's extremely high standard, well equipped, comfortable and homely. It'll be a difficult property to follow for our next getaway. Many thanks to Grace for your hospitality, it's a credit to you!
Melanie
This is my second visit to Hill Brook Barn and it was as exceptional as the first time. The barn is comfortable, well equipped and located in beautiful surroundings. I grew up in Grindleton, so it is wonderful to have found Hill Brook Barn from which to revisit a place that I love. Thank you to Grace and John for making this place so special and I look forward to seeing you soon.
A really special secluded location. Perfect for walking with loads of wildlife right on your on your doorstep. I will definitely be visiting again a big thanks to Grace for her hospitality.
Miriam
The barn is beautifully situated in a peaceful and scenic location, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The accomodation itself is modern, clean, and well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The beds were comfortable par excellence, and the views from the bedroom windows are breathtaking. The outdoor area was equally impressive, with lots of space for the kids to run around, sturdy outdoor furniture and a stream flowing by which provided a tranquil setting. Grace and John were extremely welcoming and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat in the countryside.We would love to return again!!!

Hill Brook Barn is the most beautiful property full of charm and character. Every need is thoughtfully catered for and it is spotlessly clean,comfortable and cosy including the most comfortable mattresses.With great attention to detail in the furniture and furnishings it is a pleasure to sit in such a lovely homely space. The setting is stunning.Surrounded by countryside we could watch cows,pheasants,swallows and even three deer who came to visit. The area has lots of interesting places to visit and our 3 night stay was not enough so we will look forward to returning. Grace the owner was a lovely host,warm,friendly,welcoming and helpful.Nothing was too much trouble. Cant wait for our next visit.
An absolutely stunning property, located behind a farm in peaceful surroundings. The scenery from this property is beautiful and you can happily spend hours watching nature and the weather. There are pleasant views of Pendle Hill to be enjoyed. The cottage is a superbly finished barn conversion with all the amenities you would require for a relaxing break. The owners are on the farm and are very welcoming and helpful. We will almost certainly return as this is the perfect location for a quiet, peaceful and enjoyable holiday.
The property is really well appointed and situated in a lovely quiet secluded rural location. It is was very, very clean and has everything you need. Copious hot water, dishwasher, washing machine, sunny patio, sun beds and much more. The hosts, Grace and John, were most attentive and extremely helpful. There are numerous good restaurants and pubs near by. Lovely walks through super landscapes. We stayed with our daughter and grandchildren one of which is a toddler and everyone was catered for with games and stairgates etc. I am only too pleased to recommend this property.
Gillian
We loved every minute of our stay at Hill Brook Barn. Beautifully decorated and furnished, well equipped, spacious, spotless and super comfortable beds. We received a lovely welcome from Grace who made us feel comfortable and enjoyed our chats. There is lots of information available of places to visit and activities within the area. The spacious patio area, with table, chairs and sun beds enabled us to soak up the fabulous views from the barn and watch the farm animals in the neighbouring fields. We visited Sedbergh, Clitheroe, Holden clough garden centre, Shackletons and even went spinning at Clitheroe Leisure. We will definitely visit again.

Deborah
We had a lovely family weekend in this beautiful property. Excellent facilities and immaculate. Loved the location, and as a bonus, saw 3 deer very near the cottage. We will hopefully return.
Had a lovely stay at Hill Brook Barn. The barn was spotless and Grace was on hand if we needed anything, will definitely be staying again soon.
We had a great time , The barn is in a beautiful setting, surrounded with sheep and wild life. You are close enough to amenities, so the best of both worlds, The host was great too, she made sure that everything was in working order and that we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend it.
Jiameng
A very comfortable and well equipped cottage with a first class host and breathtaking location. We consisting of my husband, me, my PIL and our little boy spent 1 week at Hill Barn Cottage. All of us had a fantastic time even though weather had not been very kind. My little one spotted a curlew right outside of the kitchen window!!! The cottage has everything you can reasonably need. Lots of space. The beds were amongst the most comfortable we have ever slept in. If we return to the area, Hill Brook Barn would be our top choice for sure.
Lovely barn conversion in an idyllic location very isolated. Well equipped and very comfy beds. We had a lovely time despite the weather and would definately recommend to family and friends. Would suggest some sign posts from the school to guide you onto the right tracks, we arrived in the dark and found it difficult to navigate the directions.
Estelle
We loved our stay at Hill Brook Barn. It is very remote and if we hadnt had a week of howling winds it would have been very peaceful! Grace was very helpful and easy to get in contact with. The house is very well furnished with all important comfortable beds and well heated. The surrounding countryside is beautiful, this would make an excellent base for a walking holiday. Thank you.
We have just returned from our second visit this year to this fantastic barn conversion, the fact that we have been twice in one year and we are already looking at booking for next February should tell you how wonderful this place is. Hill Brook barn is so comfortable , the cottage is finished to a wonderfully high standard and is spotlessly clean throughout, the surrounding area is glorious with so many wonderful walks in all directions and views that simply go on for miles. The owners Grace and John are on hand if you require any information on the area or the cottage and are both such lovely people to chat with , we loved having a cuppa with Grace chatting about the surrounding areas and life on the farm. Book Hill Brook farm I guarantee you will love it and like us be gutted when its time to leave but excited for our next visit ! James
Beautiful property with amazing views. Very well equipped and Grace the owner was a lovely host.
