Gilling Lodge and Cottage

Experience a slice of Georgian splendour near Richmond, where this magnificent property offers a five-star retreat for family gatherings and special occasions with your loved ones. Set in the charming village of Gilling West, this elegant home ios perfect for large group getaways. While away days exploring historic market towns and roaming picturesque moors and valleys in the Yorkshire Dales, then return here to relax amid landscaped gardens.

Put your best paw forward as you step inside, where you’re sure to be wowed by the restored grandeur, blending timeless heritage with inviting warmth. The entrance hall and sweeping staircase give way to a sumptuous kitchen with an AGA, a marble island, and a breakfast table. Double doors open to a stunning, formal drawing room with garden views and a marble fireplace, plus there’s a cosy snug made for film nights beside a roaring wood burner, and a formal dining room with a round table and bay windows overlooking the gardens. Six beautifully styled bedrooms are arranged across the first and second floors, some with en-suites, others sharing a family bathroom, including the top-floor family room with two doubles and a single bed plus a spectacular bath and views over paddocks. There’s also a tranquil reading nook for peaceful downtime. Outside, the formal landscaped gardens are equally exquisite, with beautiful paths to roam along with outdoor dining and peaceful nooks to grab a quiet moment and listen to the birds. Ample private parking ensures convenience.

Adjacent to the main house, the charming cottage offers extra space for guests to gather or relax separately. Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen, a cosy wood burner, a double bedroom, a single bedroom, and a shower room with WC—perfect for additional privacy and comfort.
