Dovecote Barns was the perfect place to stay with my large family over my wedding! The accommodation is beautiful and met our requirements exactly - especially the Long Barn, which was great for big family meals, flower prep, getting ready with my bridesmaids and we even managed to fit in my nephew’s family birthday party too!! Brigita was incredible and communicated with us from before booking to after check out to make sure we had all we needed. We couldn’t recommend Dovecote Barns enough! Rooms: The rooms were all fantastic! We had some specific requirements and Brigita helped make sure they were met!

Our party have just returned from a magnificent stay in The Grand Barn. It is a truly 5* experience. The barn is well appointed with impeccable attention to detail. Everything is finished to a high standard whilst not sacrificing comfort (the beds and linen are glorious). We appreciated the the local touches in the generous welcome hamper, and the food we ordered in with the hosts help from a local bistro was amazing. Brigita is a thoughtful and welcoming host and it was a privilege to stay in your immaculate property. Thanks for making our family get together so memorable.

We hired out the whole site as accommodation for a nearby wedding. I cannot rate the Dovecote highly enough. The place is really phenomenal and I would definitely recommend to anyone as a great place for a holiday. Brigita could not have been nicer and more accommodating, making the experience even better. The kitchens were especially well equipped and well kept with everything needed.

Gorgeous place for a stay with a large group. Such a lovely place, finsihed to a high spec. Really friendly and helpful host. Everyone in the group loved it. Lots of options for catering while there. We bought some homecooked "ready meals" for our arrival and booked a private chef for Saturday night. Comfortable beds, gorgeous bathrooms, I can't fault. Would love to visit again. :)

We have stayed in the Dovecote at Dovecote Barns five times now! The accommodation is beautiful and completely immaculate every time. We are always made to feel so welcome by Brigita and as a family of four always feel it has everything we could need. The kitchen is so well equipped and the beds are so comfortable. We love the location for easy access into York, yet so calm and quiet. Thank you!

The barns were the perfect base for our recent wedding. They are beautifully decorated and well equipped with everything you need. Each barn has a unique charm and the long hall is perfect for group dining. We plan on coming back for future family gatherings so we can get the extended family all together in one place.

A wonderfully attentive host and The Hay Barn was fantastic, super clean, delightfully restored and very well kitted out. We also ordered two really delicious home cooked meals which were in our fridge when we arrived Lovely setting too.

We stayed in the Irishman cottage and it was a perfect space for two. It was beautifully furnished and cosy, and I found it an ideal place to stay as a wheelchair user. We will definitely be visiting again and recommending it to family and friends.

We booked the Grand Barn at very short notice due to the accommodation we were due to stay in elsewhere having a flood and cancelling. In hindsight this was the best thing that could happen as we got to experience a wonderful break at Dovecote. From the minute i booked i had great communication with Brigita, she was a great source of knowledge on the local area and very helpful. But the quality of the accommodation speaks for itself, top end quality, every room is breathtakingly furnished, the barn has everything you may need and the welcome basket was a welcome touch. We were staying for my 50th birthday and Brigita even gave us recommendations for lovely restaurants nearby. Overall would not hesitate to recommend, infact i have already done so with all my friends

We were a family group of 10, staying in The Grand Barn. Lovely accommodation, everything we needed, Brigita the owner was very helpful and supplied a really nice welcome basket. We would definitely recommend a stay here, and hope to return ourselves sometime.
