The art of getting 14 people away together

by Ian Berry | Sep 29, 2026 | Staying at the Long Barn

Getting 14 people away together sounds straightforward until you actually try to do it. The first challenge is usually finding a date everyone can manage, and then come all the preferences you never knew people had. One of our friends, Bob, would never book a holiday...

What we’d recommend for an autumn weekend in the North York Moors

by Ian Berry | Sep 22, 2026 | Staying at the Long Barn

There is something about arriving in Appleton-le-Moors on an autumn afternoon that makes you want to slow down almost immediately. As you come over the common towards the village, the light has that golden amber quality you only seem to get at this time of year. Sheep...

Together without being joined at the hip

by Ian Berry | Sep 1, 2026 | Staying at the Long Barn

When we first explained to a friend what we were hoping to create at the Long Barn, we were standing in what were then still semi-derelict farm buildings, trying to describe the sort of groups we imagined coming to stay. He stopped us mid-flow. “Go away with my...

The Long Barn at Town End Farm

In 2012 we had a mid-life crisis (although one of Ian’s colleagues told us we had already passed that marker). We have always been customer focused in our careers and had dreamed about taking control of our lives and running our own business. So, we took the plunge and decided to sell our house and set up a self-catering business for large groups of friends and family to meet up in style and comfort. We have put our hearts and souls into the restoration of this characterful luxurious self catering barn and tried to think of every detail you need to make your stay truly memorable. There is space to spread out in & relax, space to come together in. 7 generous en suite double bedrooms mean no one has the short straw. The Long Barn is the perfect place to escape to with family and friends for a special celebration in the beautiful North York Moors National Park.

One of the things we like about running the Long Barn is that guests sometimes point out something we hadn’t thought of.

On Thursday, Ian popped down with some extra ice while Dan At the dinner party by Dan Grahamwas cooking dinner for the group. His homemade focaccia smelt wonderful, the guests were settling in with drinks, and one of them was decanting a bottle of wine they’d bought in Saint-Émilion a few years ago.

Then came the question:

“Do you have a wine chiller?”

We didn’t.

We do now.

Four stainless-steel wine chillers arrived today and are ready for the next guests.

It’s a small addition, but one of those useful things that only becomes obvious when someone actually asks for it.

And to the Walsall Crowd — they’ll be here waiting for you when you come back for your third visit with us.
