Crabtree Barn - a peaceful Yorkshire escape but centrally based.

Set down a quiet country lane you'll find Crabtree Barn. The views from the barn are stunning and far-reaching of green valleys and hills. However although the location is in the country a mile away over the hill is the M62 - out of sight and sound - but less than 10 minutes meaning you can access Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds and York with ease. The Peak District is also less than an hours drive.

Crabtree Barn is a stone built Victorian barn built in 1855 that has been sympathetically converted to a spacious and comfortable 2 bedroom property.

As well as the light-filled top floor living area and the 2 ground floor bedrooms, you'll also have exclusive access to a garden room with outside entrance and directly leading to your private garden. The garden room has a full sized table tennis table as well as handy laundry facilities.

The private garden has glorious views across the valley, in the summer months you can sit on the terrace area with outdoor seating and table. Or watch the sunrise from the summerhouse drinking your morning coffee and listening to the birdsong.

The barn is suited to both couples and families as the bedroom layout in bedroom 1 can be either a superking bed or twin beds - please just let us know which you'd prefer on booking. For privacy both bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms.

Restful Retreat
Four adults ages 49-80 and it was perfect for all of us. Clean, comfortable, quiet bedrooms. Steaming hot water and great water pressure in the showers. Kitchen well equipped. Comfortable living area with great views. We enjoyed watching the sheep migrate from field to field. Short, beautiful drive down into the Peak District.

Wow!
Crabtree Barn is exactly, if not better, than what kind owners Wayne and Rachel say/show it is. Their renovated barn was perfect for my partner and 2 kids. Not only was it a beautiful home with all of the amenities and then some, the English countryside is simply gorgeous and peaceful. AND I have to say, I have never met owners who were as kind or as helpful as both Wayne and Rachel (and I have stayed in a good number of VRBOs!!) If you love what you see then you will not be disappointed-- Definitely stay here!

Incredible barn with lovely hosts
The barn is gorgeous and incredibly comfortable! The bedrooms and bathrooms are perfect. Comfortable, quiet, very clean. Bathrooms spacious and modern. The upstairs kitchen / living room is generous in size, lots of light - really lovely. Hosts are kind and helpful. This is a truly remarkable barn conversion surrounded by beautiful countryside. Highly recommend!!

Cosy tucked away barn
Crabtree Barn is cosy though spacious and comes very well equipped. It was wonderfully clean and the beds and sofas were extremely comfortable. The kitchen is well designed with plenty of space and all the equipment we needed. Wayne and Rachel were very helpful and friendly without being at all intrusive. My sister and I felt happy and warm and relaxed in the Barn and would visit again and recommend it to friends. Just beware of the very narrow roads leading to the Barn and which make up much of the road network in the area - we loved driving them, but they aren't for everyone. What a wonderful base from which to explore Halifax, Hebden Bridge, Hardcastle Craggs and Haworth and discover a very striking part of the world. Thank you Wayne and Rachel!
