Mearbeck Barn is a magnificent Yorkshire Dales barn located halfway between the village of Long Preston and the popular market town of Settle. The Barn offers a fantastic opportunity to create a superb family home or holiday accommodation within the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
Long Preston is an idyllic and highly sought after village on the edge of the spectacular scenery of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The village offers quiet Dales living with a public house and post office. The popular market town of Settle is approximately 2 miles away offering a range of amenities including a supermarket, primary and secondary schools, public houses and restaurants.

Planning permission has been granted by the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority under Application No. C/62/650, subject to a Section 106 Agreement which prescribes for local occupancy and/or short term holiday lets.
The approved scheme provides generous living accommodation on the ground floor including a light entrance hall to make full use of the barn’s original opening, along with a study/office, open plan living/dining area and utility room.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
