    “The Barn at Stainton is a beautiful property.”

    It is spacious and well equipped. Its location is great to explore the lakes and we even went up to Hadrian’s Wall! Real thought is put into welcoming guests and communication was excellent. If you stay here you will not be disappointed. Thank you to all involved.
