An ideal base for exploring Ryedale and the N Yorkshire moors. The cottage is in a lovely location with great views over the surrounding countryside. Very comfortable and warm and the owners extremely helpful and friendly. We would definitely use it again if we visit the area.

Bilbo's Barn is a lovely location for a holiday to explore N. Yorkshire attractions. It is beautifully clean and well equipped and even in winter the underfloor heating was more than sufficient. Close to Thornton Le Dale with a great range of cafes, tea shops and pubs with larger supermarkets available in Pickering just 4 miles away. Arthur and MarRead morey were wonderful hosts and thoroughly lovely people. Would definitely stay again. Hide
