We have just returned from a 4 day stay at Yew Tree Farm and have already recommended to a few friends and colleagues. The situation of the farm is stunning with beautiful mountains behind and also several gentle woodland walks nearby.We were given a very warm welcome by Tom when we arrived during a very busy afternoon at the tearoom.... more

Entering Yew tree Farm is like stepping back in time, the cottage is beautifully maintained with period furniture and thankfully no televisions!. The staff were so helpful and friendly and there were nice touches such as afternoon tea and cakes in the room when we returned from a day out on the mountains. The breakfasts were huge - we hardly... more

My husband, myself and our dog have just returned from a 4-night break at Yew Tree Farm. What a wonderful and relaxing time we had. We stayed in the room Tarn Hows. The four poster bed was the most comfortable I had ever stayed in. The room was delightful, full of character and spacious, with a lovely en-suite bathroom. It... more

Yew Tree Farm is an absolutely amazing place to stay. We only stayed for one short night, but fell in love with the place! The room was immaculate and had tons of character. The bed was very comfortable, and the room had lots of space. I would recommend Yew Tree Farm to everyone, especially those who want to stay in... more

We have recently returned from a 4-day break at this excellent B & B. At long last, we have found an establishment that provides a REALLY comfortable bed and a shower that 'does what it says on the tin', instead of the miserable dribble that passes for a shower facility in some other establishments. Breakfast was served in a pleasant... more

Yet i was wrong as last time i stayed it was such a peaceful place somewhere where you could relax and kick back.

I am stunned! And very sorry you have clearly had such a poor experience, we pride ourselves on a friendly welcome and high standards and you clearly feel you have had non of the above, for that we apologise sincerely. I remember you both clearly as we were very concerned when you mentioned the smell of cats in the room,...

After a days walking,arriving back at Yew Tree for tea was a real treat. The place has great character.It has its quirks,creaky floors and head bumping beams, but after... more

We would really like to keep this place a secret but that would be selfish. This is a must for any body who wants something special.The place is full of character and warmth. Nothing is too much trouble for the hosts Caroline and Jon who really make you feel welcome. We opted for the evening meal which was excellent .The... more
