The Old Byre, Sandford, Appleby-in-westmorland, Cumbria, CA16 6NR

Beautiful cottage in a lovely location, it has everything you could possibly need for your stay. Spotlessly clean, lovely walks, and very friendly and helpful locals. There is a great pub, The Sanford Arms if you fancy eating out just a short walk up the lane and other lovely eating places a short drive away.

I have been before and I will definitely be going again,I highly recommend this beautiful cottage.

We spent New Year at the Old Byre. What an amazing place. New Year is a difficult time for our family after loosing our Mam, so to be able to have the peace and tranquility in perfect surroundings was idyllic.

The Old Byre is clean, comfortable and equipped with everything you need. A visit to the Sanford Arms is a must. I've tried to book for the oncoming New Yesr but it's fully booked. But I will most definitely return.

This was my second time at The Old Byre and definitely won?t be my last. Everything is to the highest standard. The local area is beautiful with so much to do. We will definitely be back time and time again.

We have just got back from a weekend at the Old Byre and we are already planning to go back! We went as a group of friends but it would also be ideal for families. The cottage is charming with high, beamed ceilings and original features. The three bedrooms are much larger than we expected. The living area is cosy with nice comfy sofas and a large dining table. Kitchen very well equipped with what looks like a brand new range cooker. There is a hallway between the two downstairs bedrooms and the living area so noise doesn?t travel to the bedrooms, if for instance you wanted to put children to bed but then watch tv in the lounge. There are lots of nice touches and attention to detail that make it feel homely and everything was spotlessly clean. There is a nice pub that serves food in walking distance, but Appleby is only a short drive away. I would highly recommend this cottage and will definitely be returning.

Having stayed at the Byre many times, my stay in July was yet again perfection! A beautiful property in a stunning location! An ideal place for those wanting to visit the lakes and surrounding areas.

Can't wait to return!

The Byre is a perfect cottage to relax and do nothing, it's cosy, comfortable, and spotless, or if your feeling like a good walk with Amazing views then you have come to the right place, highly recommend this place, wouldn't come to this neck of woods without staying here

We really enjoyed our stay at The Old Byrne, which is in a tranquil spot near Appleby, which is definitely worth a visit.Sandford itself has the advantage of a great local pub, which serves food and has a darts board. The only reason I can't give this five stars was that there were air fresheners everywhere which I don't like and in our large downstairs bedroom, I suspect they were masking a slightly doggy spell.

Lovely village, great accommodation and superbly located for holiday exploration. Suitable for all ages, I have two boys aged 4 and 12 who loved the area (particularly Mambo the parrot). Highly recommended for a quiet family break.
