About Us
Report
Long Byres Holiday Cottages are located on a working hill farm in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Our six specially designed holiday cottages were converted by the Dean family from the traditional farm buildings in 1979 and are an early example of farm diversification. With the next generation taking over the reins, refurbishments are underway in the cottages to update them once again.
