Welcome to Dufton Barn Holidays

As you arrive into the beautiful village of Dufton in the Eden Valley you immediately start to sense the benefit of a rural idyll in your own garden of Eden.  All around you is peaceful countryside and gentle rolling hills, away from the daily hum drum of life and the bustle of the Lake District.

Dufton Barn Holidays ticks all the boxes, as we are perfectly positioned between the Lake District and the North Yorkshire Moors, for a complete pamper break for two in luxurious Shepherds View.  You can even leave your car parked up for the whole of your stay, as there are numerous walks suiting all abilities direct from the property, together with easy to follow walking guides.

We have provided everything you need to recharge your batteries, leaving you to decide how active you want to be, whether walking or cycling in the beautiful Eden Valley or just simply relaxing in the gorgeous jacuzzi bath!

So many places here to get away from the crowds on Easter Sunday. Take a flask and find a quiet spot behind Dufton Pike up Brownber Hill. Glorious views across the Eden in all directions.
It’s a real challenge for the legs especially on the way down but well worth it.

Great to watch the working dogs on this lovely walk around Dufton Pike. Added bonus, seeing all the violets and primroses. Now it is beginning to feel like Easter.
Another great walk from the door.
