Stayed May 29, 2025Our stay at Lord Mayor's Barn was an absolute delight! Nestled in the picturesque market town of Alston, this charming stone barn conversion offers a perfect retreat for those seeking tranquility and natural beauty.The property itself is a beautiful blend of character and contemporary style, with original beams and exposed stonework creating a cozy atmosphere. The living room, with its large arched barn window, provides stunning views of the surrounding fells - a view that takes your breath away every single morning.Comfortable accommodation for 4 peopleFully equipped kitchen with modern appliancesWoodburner for those chilly eveningsBeautiful garden with patio furnitureThe location is incredible for exploring Cumbria, with easy access to countryside walks, cycling routes, and nearby attractions like Hadrian's Wall. The nearby waterfalls and mountain landscapes are simply spectacular.Highly recommended!

Stayed Dec 31, 1969Fantastic cottage - We had the most amazing stay. The host were extremely friendly and helpful as well as the cottage being spotlessly clean. Even with the snow and being in winter, the cottage was really cosy and warm with blankets also being supplied. Lots of walks near by such as Hadrian's Wall and a Roman Fort, which were both a short drive away. We would definitely recommend High Force Waterfall which was a 30 min drive away however the drive was beautiful with some great views along the way. I cannot recommend the Lord Mayors Barn enough - great value for money for a lovely break. We can't wait to come back already! Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Stayed Dec 31, 1969We had a fabulous week in Lord Mayor’s Barn. Our hosts were very friendly & helpful without being at all intrusive. All very relaxed. The welcome pack was much appreciated. The cottage was lovely & cosy, well-equipped and spotlessly clean. We loved the large kitchen diner where we spent much of our time. Alston is very handily placed for day trips to Hadrian’s Wall, Kielder & the East coast up to Holy Island. The waterfall at Ashgill is a must-do local visit. There’s also a great circular walk from the cottage via Alston & part of the Pennine Way - spectacular in the Autumn. We didn’t try any of the takeaway options in the town, though the chippy has an excellent reputation. Big shoutout to the Nook Farm Shop & Cafe, who also do home-cooked main meals perfect for bunging in the microwave! We loved our visit and would definitely recommend Lord Mayor’s Barn.

Stayed Dec 31, 1969This is a very attractive and tasteful barn conversion. It is well fitted but retains the atmosphere of the original building. Comfortable and warm, conveniently laid out and well equipped. The hosts were very friendly, helpful and welcoming and on hand for any advice or problems if needed. It is well situated in a beautiful area with lots of interest but we visited when all visitor attractions were closed due to the virus and we ourselves were unable to eat out because of our need to be careful. Normally there would be plenty to do and there are plenty of good eat out choices for those allowed to use them. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
