Yorkshire Dales Bunk Barns
and Outdoor Centres

Quality bunk-style self-catering accommodation for groups and individuals at budget prices in the main walking areas of the Yorkshire Dales

All these bunk house barns and outdoor centres have bunks in separate bedrooms, kitchen/dining room with lounge/recreation area, toilets and showers, a drying room, hot water and heating, and ample car parking. They are all conveniently situated in excellent walking areas of high scenic value, many near routes such as the Dales Way and the Pennine Way.

Most of these bunk houses have been converted from traditional Dales stone barns used to store hay and house cattle in winter. One was a former stables and coach house. Another was formerly a chapel.

The map shows approximate locations of the bunk barns and outdoor centres and the main walking routes. Click the bunk barn you are interested in and visit its web site for detailed descriptions and locations, and booking information.
