| The granary attached to Covill Barn has been converted to form a traditional self contained cottage, sleeping two with enviable views over Nidderdale and Gouthwaite Nature Reserve, available all year on a weekly basis and for short winter breaks at competitive prices. If four people wish to self cater then our twin bedded annex with en suite provides private additional sleeping while the Granary’s kitchen and living area are shared. |
