Beautifully Converted Barn With Stunning Views near Aysgarth

Westburn Cottage is an end-terrace cottage located in a quiet non-drive through hamlet called Newbiggin in Bishopdale. Originally a 17th century barn, the cottage has been converted into a cosy property with all the mod-cons & FREE full fibre broadband. And as it's our 2nd home it's also been done to a very high standard. There is off-road parking at the front of the property. At the rear there is a gravelled area with tables & chairs.

Quirky yet minimalist, traditional outer/modern inner, comfy, cosy, beautiful location
We loved staying here! Kitchen had everything, inc. a cafetière, salt & pepper grinders, dedicated drawer of superbly sharp knives(!) & a resident kitchen spider who earnt her keep by catching a mosquito! The bed is huge - could easily fit 3 people! (Duvet cover is a bit noisy/rustles like taffeta when it moves, so light sleepers with partners prone to nocturnal limb flailing might be kept awake by this. The antique wardrobe was ace - I enjoyed the labelled shelves based on sartorial stylings of yesteryear! Loads of books, some DVDs, sofa was clean and comfy with a pouffe for weary legs, dimmer lights were appreciated. Mobile signal was fair for Three but virtually nothing for O2, although can easily hook up to WiFi calling; smart TV has a free HDMI port for Chromecast/similar, & there's a Blu-ray player (lucky as we bought a couple in a charity shop in Leyburn). Parking was fine, had to park right up against the barn door so that next door could get in too, but unless you have a van it won't be a problem for most. We felt the TV was likely very audible to the family in the adjoining property (another holiday let); we could hear their movements so I'm sure they could hear us We heard noisy doors/stairs from next door, and the presumed internal adjoining door didn't appear to have soundproofing (original oak door with a small gap underneath) so we felt bad watching films at night as they had little kids. TV is on the adjoining wall and sofa is against the opposite wall

Fabulous cottage in a perfect location
We stayed at Westburn Cottage for a week in early July. The cottage is a perfect size for two people and was a great base to explore the Dales. The kitchen was well equipped and the whole cottage was fitted out to a high standard. The outdoor space was a lovely spot to relax. We really enjoyed our week staying here and would love to return to both the Dales and the cottage.

Nice short stay in Yorkshire
This is a very comfortable property. For our short stay we found that everything we needed was there. There was plenty of fuel for the multi-fuel burner, although we didn't need it. It was fun watching the robotic lawn mower.

Westburn Cottage provides an excellent location for exploring the Dales with an ideal local pub
Very good, minor points, a sketch direction diagram from The Street Head Inn would be helpful on arrival and we had some difficulty with the TV even after replacing the batteries in both remotes.

What a delightful cottage, it has everything you could possibly need. The log burner is a treat, makes it so cosy. Great view out the windows and a lovely area to sit outside. A delightful village with very friendly residents. What made it better is that my phone signal wasn’t great do meant no one could get hold of me…..another treat! Fabulous area to walk and travel around if you want go a bit further (Fabulous base). Will definitely be back.

Fabulous stay
Excellent property (you can tell it’s Phil’s family home from home). Clean and tidy throughout with plenty of space for 2 people. Very comfortable and cosy. Lots of nice touches like tea, coffee, dishwasher tablets, sanitiser, washing up liquid etc. The view from the lounge and bedroom is spectacular. The garden area gets the sun on it during the afternoon through to sunset and is a perfect spot for a sundowner! Lovely wrought iron furniture. The slimline dishwasher was an excellent addition as was the washing machine (although we didn’t use it). Underfloor heating in the bathroom was so luxurious. Oh and the shower is powerful with piping hot water. Just what you need at the end of a day after long hikes. Huge, super king bed which was so comfortable. There’s no light or noise pollution which makes for a very sound sleep. The local pub was really friendly and the food was superb. A 5 min stroll and you are there. We were glad we booked in advance as it was full every night. Phil was a perfect host and answered any queries prior to departure and even text me when we were there to ensure we had settled in ok! Now that’s service. We loved our time here and would definitely recommend it to anyone. Thanks for a relaxing long weekend. Perfect!

Cosy retreat in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales
We really enjoyed our stay at Westburn Cottage. It is a cosy and comfortable retreat in a beautiful setting. The cottage is very well set up and sparkly clean. The king size bed was a luxury not often found in holiday rentals. The living area provided a large range of books, DVDs and has spectacular views. Communication with Phil was easy, as was the check-in process. It’s a great place to stay to enjoy this magnificent part of the country.

Four days felt like two weeks!
This property was an absolute joy! From the moment we drew our car onto the drive and walked up the steps to the little front door, we knew we had booked the perfect cottage. So comfortable and peaceful, attention to detail, plus those beautiful views.... What more could one wish for. Thanks Phil, it was such a pleasure.

Enjoyable stay in Newbiggin
Lovely quite secluded location, very surprised how quiet and peaceful this location is. Cottage compact but functional. Must say not suitable for people who have issues with stairs which is my only critical comment. Lots of firewood supplied. Lovely little garden outback. Good supply reading material. Nearby pub very good. We would absolutely rent this cottage again if we every came back.

Stunning views and a home away from home!
We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 nights stay. It was a beautiful property with all the amenities you could need. Cozy wood burning stove, well equipped kitchen, very comfortable bed, very nice shower room with electric heat. The cottage is on a little quiet lane off the main road with no thru traffic so extremely quiet. The view of the valley from the backyard patio is amazing. The VRBO pictures are actual views from the cottage. We had no idea how nice this would be for such a great price! Footpaths very close to doorstep and so close to Aysgarth Falls. Very lovely !!

Beautiful old stone cottage in the wilds of North Yorkshire
A beautiful old stone cottage literally 'away from it all' where we spent four nights and could have stayed much longer it was so good. Very well appointed with modern equipment, a good comfy bed and a multi- fuel stove which kept us 'toasty' on nights when the outside temperature was at zero degrees. Comprehensive local information was given by owner and there were numerous good pubs and eateries within easy reach. For us it was beautiful in the November fog and rain, in summer sunshine it must be heaven, we'd return anytime.
