Howgill Barn proved to be a good location for our annual five day New Year self catered event for 22 people. Plenty of warm socialising space with fun areas like games room and hot tub. It would be particularly spacious in the warmer months when you could get outside on the large patio. The bunk rooms were a little tight but good that each one had its own toilet, washbasin and shower. The upstairs kitchen was also on the small size but doable but if necessary a large kitchen was available downstairs. Both kitchens well furnished with all essential items for large scale catering.
Excellent location for short and long hikes locally from the door. Plenty of parking space.

Howgills Barn was the ideal place for our group. The facilities were fantastic. There was everything we could ask for and more. Excellent value for money. Location was perfect, hosts were very friendly and accommodating. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough and I’m confident we’ll be back again in the future!

My group thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the barn, which is a credit to everyone involved.

We've being holding annual get-togethers for around 15 years in various locations, and now we've been to Howgills, I can't imagine us aiming to stay anywhere else.

The property ticked every box for us and I can't think of any way the site can be improved upon.

The lane leading to the Barn is typical of the countryside - tight for larger vehicles and uneven, so be prepared for this.

This barn has everything you could possibly need and things you won’t have even thought of! It is spotlessly clean and very comfortable. We were a group of 28 and loved the fact that we could all be together in the first floor communal areas. The hot tub, outdoor seating, indoor seating, dining area and kitchen are all on the same level which creates one big sociable space. We also made use of the large field for team building activities. If you are a large group looking for a private space for any event I would highly recommend Howgills Barn.

There is no need to use bathroom towels for the hot tub as hot tub towels are provided. Make use of the hot trays if you’re a large group but turn on 20mins before use to allow it to heat up.

I have just returned from another fabulous weekend with friends at Howgills Bunk Barn. The barn was beautifully clean , as always, and very well stocked with towels, bedding, glasses, plates and cutlery galore! The hot tub is always a hit!
It is out of town enough not to have to worry about noise travelling, but close enough to walk into the shops if you forget something. There are many walks just from the door. We managed several walks (and some even swam in the river!).
It remains our favourite place to gather with friends so I cannot recommend it more highly.

We ordered our meat for breakfast and the BBQ from the Meat Hook in Sedbergh. It was great - high quality and all ready for collection. Sedbergh Pizza also fulfilled a large delivery order on one of the nights. Again the order was accurate, timely and the pizzas/kebabs were tasty!

We all agreed this was the best accommodation we have stayed in. The boys particularly liked the hot tub, football pitch and games room, we barely saw them. Great lounge room and outdoor area. We spent the whole evening in the big dining and sitting room. Would definitely recommend.

In short, the property was perfect for us. The amenities on site were fantastic and much more than we expected. The games room, hot tub and tv room upstairs were big hits with our group and really added to our enjoyment of the weekend. The sports field with the football goals below the house was a real added bonus which we made full use of. Communication with the owners from start to finish was excellent. The flexibility for arriving and leaving the property was much appreciated and took a level of stress off of our shoulders. Having the village only 5-10 minutes walk away was also ideal. By the end of the weekend most of the group were discussing when we’d next be staying at the barn and I think that’s the best review you can get.

Recently visited for xmas get together for 14 of us. The barn was emaculate and the kitchen facilities were excellent. The location of the barn is perfect. Just a short walk into town and right at the foot of the fells. The hottub was incredible and a real highlight. We absolutely loved staying at the barn and would recommend to others.

We very much enjoyed our third stay at Howgills Barn. All facilities are very good, comfortable and suitable for kids (ours are aged 2-14). The hot-tub is a great asset, games room much used, and we always enjoy our annual family football match on the 5-a-side pitch down the lane. Space, cooking and storage, dishwasher and cleaning facilities are all very good.

The howgills barn is great accommodation for family get together. Lots of nice walks, Sedburgh right next door with good restaurants and bars. The accommodation is great where we could all sit together, catch up, dance and play games. The jacuzzi is also great. Also plenty of cooking facilities and fridge freezer space. All in all we had a great time

This weekend is a real highlight each year. We are a group of families that have been coming to Howgills Bunk Barn for over 10years and we never seem to out grow or tire of it. The barn is set in its own space with beautiful views of the fells behind and with plenty of walks from the door. It is always spotless clean and it is kept fresh with soft furnishings and shower curtains being replaced regularly. Sedbergh is just 10mins walk away and has several great pubs and a couple of lovely coffee shops. We really can’t recommend this place enough for a large group looking to get away together, relax and have fun.

A group of 23 really enjoyed our stay at Howgills barn. We loved the communal areas, outside hot tub area and the stunning location of Sedbergh. Some of the group were apprehensive about bunk beds but the beds were really comfy, the bedding was crisp white and we had en-suite facilities. The kitchen was so well equipped and thought had gone into so many little things (such as, a fantastic idea to have a tea and coffee area in the porch to save too many people trying to get into the compact kitchen!). We didn't even get chance to use the games room as the weather was great for walking and exploring the town - we will have to return!

What an incredible place! Me and my friends enjoyed 2 fabulous nights at the barn and everyone said they thought the place was epic. The remoteness and beautiful views make you feel like you're in your own little oasis. They have thought of everything and the whole place is set up to entertain a big crowd. We have made memories we will cherish forever and I would not hesitate to book again. The whole process was very easy and everyone I encountered or spoke to were very friendly.

My friends and I stayed at the Howgills Barn for four nights over New Year's. It was a wonderful stay and everyone said it was the best venue we have stayed in yet.

The best part about the accommodation was probably the variety of spaces. As well as the large living/dining space, there was also a cosy sofa room upstairs (where the downstairs noise couldn't be heard), and a games room downstairs. The large living/dining space had big tables that were good for playing games, as well as for meal times, plus there was a sofa section at the end, which felt like it provided an additional space for people to hang out in.

The two kitchens had all we needed and were well stocked with cooking equipment and crockery. Between them and the large additional drinks fridge, there was more than enough space for all of us to keep what we needed in the fridge. All the glasses we could need too, which was a real bonus.

Rooms were quite small, but all fairly quiet and removed from the social rooms, which was great.

Location was perfect. Walking distance to four or five pubs as well as to food shops. Plus we were able to set off on a big beautiful walk around the Howgills straight from the Barn.

It was a brilliant stay and I would highly recommend that others stay there.

Where do I even start on this absolutely fantastic accommodation. Right from the beginning the team during the booking process were extremely helpful! They were flexible on payments, organising early check in times, answered any questions I had and directed me to services and activities available to additionally book.

When we arrived at the Barn we were swiftly greeted by the owner to complete the induction. Not only did the venue have breathtaking views and fantastic facilities it was immaculately presented.

Our stay was to celebrate a hen party of 20. Howgills Barn was more than accommodating for that number of people. The cooking facilities, bedrooms, showers, laundry facilities- amazing!!

The hot tub was brilliant, on our second day it was topped up in the morning ready for another dip! While the girls nursed their sore heads- the mums of the group embraced the beautiful local walk into Sedbergh village.

We booked The Occasional Bartender for a cocktail masterclass which was so much fun! The cocktails were delicious, it was great value for money- Simon was professional, friendly and helpful with his ideas on which cocktails to make!. We loved it!

I also booked The Flatbread Trailer for catering services- we had a 3 course meal which was delicious! Again Marc and the team were professional, friendly and the food was top quality.

We transformed the games room at Howgills Barn into a DISCO room using our own decorations!

We all wanted to respect the place and rightly maintained tidying and cleaning up!

Overall, I can’t recommend Howgills Barn, The Occasional Bartender and Flatbread Trailer enough! I haven’t stopped talking to people about our weekend and I will certainly look to book here again for future events and recommend it to all my friends and family.

Thank you all so much and hopefully see you soon!

We had a wonderful 3 night stay at Howgills Barn this week. The barn was ideal for our group and provided all the facilities we could have hoped for. The accommodation was clean, comfortable and well maintained. The kitchen facilities offered everything we needed and more. All the bedrooms being en-suite was a real bonus. Finally the terrace, bbq and hot tub really made our stay as we were blessed with glorious weather. With the stunning scenery we could have been anywhere in Europe- bliss! Hoping to return next year, a big thank you to Nigel and his family for looking after us…and sorry again about the Elaine Paige medley on the first night!

I’ve just returned from a fabulous weekend away at Howgills Bunk Barn. The trip with friends was long overdue after rescheduling due to COVID, but it was definitely worth the wait and didn’t disappoint. The bunk barn itself had been improved with a new and improved kitchen plus bedding and towels provided throughout. The new TV was a hit with the teens as they could watch Netflix and YouTube on it apparently. I preferred to sit outside soaking up the beautiful view chatting with friends. We had some great walks and the pubs in Sedbergh had great outdoor seating. We sampled both the Bull and the Dalesman. We also had a great take away curry from the Mango Tree in Kirkby Stephen. The hot tub was amazing and enjoyed by everyone. As we left a team turned up to give it a deep clean. Altogether just a fantastically normal weekend with friends. Just what we’ve all been waiting for. Thanks so much Nigel and team for providing such excellent facilities! Our kids say it’s their favourite holiday of the year and I’ve got to say I agree!

Myself and my friends stayed here for 2 nights and we absolutely loved it. Every room had something going on and there was enough space to accomodate way more than the 17 of us who went. The cleanliness and upkeep of the barn was amazing and the outdoor area with the hot tub and bbq was fantastic. There are plenty of walks nearby up the two hills behind the barn and the town was not too far walk away either where there were shops and pubs ect. (15 mins). The table tennis arena is fantastic and the bedroom facilities are basic but nice and clean so we were also happy with this (best shower pressure ever btw). You can order am Asda or tesco shop directly to the barn as well so you can really relax and not worry about a thing. Thanks alot!

We took 27 children to the barn on a 3 day residential. The barn was spotless when we arrived! The staff could not have done anymore to make sure we had everything we needed on arrival. The location of the barn is awesome and perfect for any form of school trip. The outdoor meadow provides a great space for activities or just free play. Thank you so much to the staff at the barn for their great service once again.

Prior to our visit, communication was excellent and a great service was provided to meet the needs for the duration of the stay. The barn’s facilities were superb, and the whole accommodation was very clean. Check in/out was incredibly easy and contact details were provided for any questions that we had during our time there. We were also provided contact details for a takeaway service which delivered some great food. The rooms with en-suite bathrooms were very comfortable and the separate upstairs lounge area was great to relax in. Thanks again for a fantastic weekend; I would certainly recommend and would love to book again in the future!

We had a great weekend celebrating and were initially surprised at how large the space was. At no point did we feel cramped or like there wasn't enough living space. We got one good night (no rain) and the outside space was lovely. I can imagine in summer this would be brilliant. The hot tub is also very big. The road up to the barn, if you're not used to country roads may be a bit jarring but for any confident driver, taking it slowly you'll be absolutely grand.
Great stay with great service from the team in the lead up and after.

Upon arriving at the barn, felt welcome and everything was pretty much ready for us (a few minor things from previous people being dealt with but no issue for us at all). Rooms were made up and clean. Kitchen with plenty of facilities for a large party. Hot tub was amazing. Staff were super friendly and helpful. The location was excellent, you can walk straight out into the fells and Sedbergh is a quick walk away too. Thank you for an amazing stay, the whole package was perfect for what we needed.

Howgills barn is amazing! We were a group of 34 celebrating my husbands 40th. Howgills was the perfect venue, great communal areas, rooms were perfect all with en suites, massive kitchens and even better a beer fridge, the hot tub was also amazing. The location was brilliant being only a short walk into sedbergh. Most importantly, the team at Howgills were brilliant, from the initial enquiry to Nigel, through to speaking to Amy & Dawn on what became almost a daily basis in the weeks running up to the surprise, no questions were too much bother for the team and they always responded so quickly and went out of their way to help us. This made our stay even more perfect and we all had such a brilliant time. I cannot recommend Howgills barn enough and we are already planning our next visit!

Thank you again Amy, Nigel & Dawn!

As soon as we all arrived, it felt like we'd never left. We decided there and then that a trip to the barn is going to be our yearly get together from now on.

The barn itself is well laid out and the lounge and dining area fit all of us in comfortably. There are books to read and board games to play as well as a great music system to hook your phone up to. There is also a snug so you won't miss your favourite team playing or your favourite episode on the TV.
Bedrooms are all ensuite and beds are comfortable. The drying room is fab for putting your cozzies in after a soak in the hot tub. Kitchens (there are 2) are well equipped the patio area provides lots of seating space and bbq's which we actually used in January!

The location of the barn is fab with lots of walks/hikes on the doorstep and the village is only a 2 minute drive /10 minute stroll away.
The village offers lots of little shops, a number of pubs and a well stocked spar (poshest spar I've ever seen) as well as cafes, restaurants and a fab little takeaway.

I think the barn is perfect for a get together with friends or family and Nigel, Liz and the team do a great job.

Lookig forward to seeing you all next year.

Cannot recommend this barn enough, it was absolutely perfect for our needs and we had a blast. We are a group of 7 families with kids and stayed over a weekend (Fri/ Sat nights). The accommodation and layout was perfect; the barn is really spacious and very comfortable, even for our group of 14 adults and 19 children! Plenty of room for everyone. The luxury of underfloor heating and hot tub sets it apart from other similar places we have stayed. It has all the facilities you need for group catering and brilliantly spacious drying/ laundry rooms. Great tv/ comfy room separate from the main living/ dining area, fab playroom with table tennis and lovely outdoor space with field, benches, bbqs etc. Easy walking distance of the picturesque town of Sedbergh and we had a trip out to the playground and on up to Howgill Fells ice cream farm, which was ace. Plenty of parking outside the property. Worth noting is that the access lane is quite narrow any anything much bigger than the large people carrier/ SUV type vehicles we had might struggle on the narrow bends. Very helpful/ friendly owners and an easy booking process. We loved everything about it, I’m sure we’ll be back!

We booked the whole venue from Friday to Monday for our wedding. The staff were amazing, the venue was perfect, the setting was stunning. We couldn't have asked for the day to have gone better. It was great having the whole place on the Sunday and Monday as well so we could relax, use the hot tub and enjoy ourselves.

Our extended family loved the Bunkhouse and its location. The ability to accommodate three generations of our family in a private peaceful and stunning location made it a memorable experience. The housekeeping team were available to sort any minor problems and we found the service friendly and efficient. Don't be put off by the narrow access track from the village of Sedbergh. It's worth it, and once you are parked there is no need to drive as good walks and shops and eateries are within comfortable walking distance . I recommend the hot tub...it has great entertainment value for both children and adults even in the rain!

We spent 5 wonderful days and calm nights at the barn. It's been my fifth time here and I always feel like I am at home and so do my collegues. We had two cloudless, warm summer days, so we enjoyed staying outside on the terrace adoring the beautiful nature and the sheep surrounding us. The children also liked the peaceful countryside and to my surprise preferred it to the noisy and hectic London. They liked the rooms and comfortable beds a lot.
The teachers loved spending one evening in a jacuzzi, relaxing from a very busy day.
I thank you very much for your hospitality and perfect accommodation also on behalf of the whole Slovenian group.
Best regards
Rosana

This was our 7th visit to Howgills Barn. It is now an annual event with 8 families coming together for a great weekend break. Our children love the freedom of spending time outdoors and are always so excited to come to the barn. It’s now become a home from home, providing a place to relax, unwind, laugh and have fun. Already looking forward to visit number 8!!!!

Just returned from our second stay at Howgills Barn. We are a group of 27 who came down from Edinburgh for a walking weekend. The Barn is excellent for large groups with en-suite rooms, large social living room and 2 kitchens. It also has a drying room which was great after coming in from the hills. The hot tub was really nice to each aching muscles.
We had a BBQ on the Saturday night and there is a great butcher in the village to pick up supplies.

Whilst it is a very efficient, well structured business, the owners remain down to Earth, approachable and flexible. They are also very helpful and respond swiftly to any requests or questions.

The location is beautiful. The facilities far exceed what one would expect for a "Bunk Barn".

We were all so pleased with the bunk barn. There are lovely views in every direction and it is so peaceful and beautiful. There are lovely walks from the property and my kids loved playing in the nearby stream and walking up the big hill. We had lots of kids and teenagers in our group and they were never bored, they loved the hot tub, football field and table tennis. The communal sitting areas in the main part of the bunk barn and in the court yard are great spaces for socialising, there are plenty of sofas and tables. The bunk barn is well equipped for a big group and we thought it was great. Thanks for a super weekend!

20 of us stayed in the barn over the weekend for my 21st birthday and we absolutely loved it! Sonos bluetooth speakers are set up in the living room which were so easy to connect to and provided entertainment all night. The hot tub was definitely the favourite addition & provided laughs through the night. The table tennis room was perfect for beer pong which became hilariously competitive. We ate lunch at the Dalesman which was recommended by Nigel and the food was amazing with such reasonably priced drinks; was also playing the rugby which went down a treat with the boys. All in all a perfect weekends stay in a glorious location- amazing city break!!!

I had the pleasure of booking this amazing barn for a weekend of fun with my friends.
From the booking stage right until departure nothing was too much trouble for anyone.
They assisted with payment queries, sorted rooming configurations and greeted everyone who arrived.
Nothing was too much trouble! The weather was great so they even supplied us with the coal and fire lighter for the BBQ.

The barn itself is a great find - children had a separate play area and loved the freedom of the house.
The hot tub was utilised to the max - great time had by all.
Thank you and we will be back next year - we are planning on using this for many years to come!
