No Short Straw Bedrooms at The Long Barn

by Ian Berry | Feb 18, 2025 | Staying at the Long Barn

Planning a group getaway? We know the struggle! This week, we’ve been searching for the perfect holiday cottage for our annual college reunion, and it’s been a challenge. Finding a place with the right number of bedrooms and bathrooms is just the...

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.

There are some jobs we’re very happy to do in exchange for a few jars of jam.

We have an arrangement with our neighbour, Barrie. He doesn’t have time to pick all the blackcurrants growing in his allotment, so we’re welcome to help ourselves. In return, we make him a few jars of homemade blackcurrant jam.

Jackie headed over this evening after a day working in the Long Barn garden. The warm weather had brought several hares out to graze alongside the allotment. With the wind blowing in the right direction, they carried on feeding, completely unaware they had company.

Before long, Barrie arrived to dig a few potatoes for his tea. As always, he insisted on digging some extra for us too, along with a couple of beautiful courgettes.

Sitting on the warm earth, picking sun-warmed blackcurrants while watching the hares graze, was one of those summer evenings that reminds us how fortunate we are to live here.

The next job is turning all those blackcurrants into jam, ready for future Long Barn welcome hampers.

What’s your favourite taste of summer?
