Situated on a working pig farm, on the edge of the quaint village of Sherburn-in-Elmet, sits this spacious one-bedroom property. The rural location makes it the ideal holiday retreat for a couple wanting tranquillity and long walks with their four-pawed pal.
Originally a barn, the property has been converted into a comfortable, open-plan, light-drenched space. Whitewashed walls, exposed beams, and wood-panelled flooring create a soothing atmosphere, and the accommodation is all on one level. The lounge has a huge sofa and Smart TV so you can unwind and rest tired feet and paws after a long day exploring. When the weather is good, push open the bi-fold doors and let Fido snooze in the suntrap garden. The kitchen sits behind the lounge, so your hound can keep you company while you rustle up a meal and then dine at the intimate kitchen island. At bedtime, retire to the comfy super-king size bed and gaze out at the starry sky through the rear glass doors. The enclosed garden overlooks the beautiful Yorkshire countryside. In the morning, step outside and enjoy a quiet coffee on the garden furniture while your canine companion sniffs out new scents.
Head into Sherburn-in-Elmet (1 mile) for independent shops, pubs, cafes, and countryside walks. For further adventure, clip on a lead and head to the train station (0.3 miles) for a day out in York. It’s 15 miles away or 16 minutes by train and is packed with attractions. Stroll along the medieval shopping street, jump on a boat for a dog-friendly trip along the River Ouse and explore York’s past at the Castle Museum, where canine pals are welcome in the gardens. Afterwards, enjoy a bite-to-eat at one of the many dog-friendly restaurants.
