A fantastic weekend at 'Maddy's', as Stones Barn is known by locals. What amazing hosts Maddy and Rose-Ellen are! And such a lovely space to sing and share some beautiful moments with this music legend.

I can recommend Singing for the Uncertain as an absolutely wonderful course supporting people to find the courage and confidence to start singing, or bring singing into their lives more often. Bring your willingness to try, and be prepared to muck in with setting up tables and help clearing away. It's very down to earth and real with the only luxury being the time to focus on singing with extremely experienced guidance. I loved every minute of it.

Brilliant place. Maddy and Rose so supportive and great singers

Fantastic weekend “Singing for the Uncertain”. Having been told throughout my life that I can’t sing Maddy and Rose-Ellen were able to help me discover that actually I can, they set me of the road. Very professional teaching, superb hospitality in community of like-minded people who neve judge but rather give encouragement. If you’re not sure be assured, it’s a transformative experience.

Wonderful weekend enjoyed by the family, and connecting with other like minded people, singing with great instructors. Excellent

I have been 3 times and loved it every time. Great location, great music, great company, great food. Don't hesitate, go! Peter Excell

Been to 'Sing Songs of Steeleye With Maddy Prior and Rick Kemp', in mid September. Only been once before, and it's like coming home. Everything fabulous, utterly magic teachers, great group, some of whom were very clued up but all such gems, and it all gelled. Loved the insights on the band's life and challenges of performing. The Stones Barn site, Nette's lovely nosh, the Cumbrian scenery and olde worlde villages are all ace. Brill! joanna xxx

I'm not a 'singer' and I'm never going to get up on stage.... But, sharing the experience of Stones Barn is always, always an amazing event. You meet people who become life long friends, you learn about yourself whether you wanted to or not! It's an amazing time spent with great company..... And the food. .. Oh now that is special xxx

I've never felt so welcomed and accepted. Such a wonderful, warm, safe place to try new things and make new friends . Amazing people, amazing singing and amazing food !! Can't wait to get back there.

I'm just amazed that no reviews have been posted of this wonderful landmark to folk music and so much more. This is the venue created by the legendary Maddy Prior and her many companions in folk. My wife went there for her 50th birthday present and attended a singing course. Maddy and her team included so much more than just folk singing. A wonderful venue created by one of the true giants of modern folk music.
