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!

“Lovely accommodation, great walks – all in all a fabulous holiday! Many thanks.”

“Just perfect in every way!”

“What a perfect place to stay.  We have had a lovely time with our dog Cooper.  Visited a lot of the local area and the Lake District in rain and shine, all of which were beautiful experiences.  Coming back to this lovely place after a day out was just perfect.”

“Fabulous cottage and fantastically equipped.  Information book is the best we’ve ever seen with really helpful info on walks, places to visit etc…  Stag Inn a definite recommendation.  Acorn Bank at Temple Sowerby and Lowther Castle & Gardens worth a visit.  Walking highlights ‘High Cup Nick’ and Orton Scar.”

“Our 4th trip to Shepherds View so we’ve run out of superlatives to describe this place.  All we can say is perfect as always, and despite having. been here 3 times before we still found new things to do and even the less than clement weather for part of our stay has not stopped us!  Thank you Carole and Simon once again for your hospitality.”
