Charming Yorkshire Retreat 3 bedroom house in Barnsley / Yorkshire getaway

8/10 Good

"Stylish, comfortable house in a quiet area with on road parking, beautifully clean. Finding a three double bedroom house with two bathrooms is a challenge, so this was a great find. If you struggle with stairs be aware these are steep and mostly have no banister. The kitchen cooking utensils are very limited and need to be increased, e.g only 1 lsauce pan, no cooking bowls.Booking in and contact with the host was excellent throughout. Great holiday location gives very good options for travelling on day trips. Would definitely book this again. Thank you!"

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely home from home. Very welcoming host, rooms well equipped and spotless. Definitely recommend "
