A fabulous weekend with friends at Howgills Barn
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.

Perfect spot for larger group
The barn is very comfortable, and more luxurious than you’d imagine for a bunk house accommodation. The location is magical, very private but really near the small picturesque town .

Fabulous location and facilities for Fun weekend
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 a place!
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. Thank you for an incredible time!

Perfect Venue
My friends and I came here for 2 nights for a chilled out stag do. The venue was perfect. Really clean, could host many guests with activities on site. I met the owners of the barn whilst on site and they were so warm and welcoming. Would gladly return in future!

8/10 Good

Wonderful visit with friends
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.

Super stay in super place!
The photos don’t do it justice, a great spot for a big group. Well equipped and managed facilities within very easy access of the town and nice walks. Thanks very much.

Perfect accommodation for a large group of friends and their children.
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!

A long overdue weekend at Howgills
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!

Perfect Stag House
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!

Long weekend at the Barn with family
We had a great long family weekend at Howgills Barn, with 17 of us, from grandparents and babies plus two dogs. The facilities were excellent - plenty of space for us all - and we enjoyed a fab time. Sedbergh is a lovely location. Thoroughly enjoyed and recommended.
