Get the whole gang together at this impressive farmhouse just 3 miles from Ilkley. Sleeping 14 people across seven bedrooms and welcoming four canine companions, it’s ideal for large families or corporate groups searching for an elegant place to celebrate a special occasion in Yorkshire. Spend happy hours strolling through the Victorian arcades of Ilkley, and in the evening, come home to share a BBQ feast on the cottage’s patio.
Pull up in the private parking area (there’s room for seven vehicles) and step inside this farmhouse. An attractive blend of smart modern styling and period beams work together to create chic country styling throughout. Head upstairs and you’ll find an inviting open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining area with a cosy Esse wood burner. Take a moment to appreciate the timeless decor before heading to the kitchen area to rustle up some dinner. Gather at the dining table for an informal meal, or head to the dining room for a grand group dinner. Alternatively, step out onto the patio, fire up the BBQ and share a feast while your pups run around the enclosed space. After dinner, take a dip in the hot tub or head to one of two games rooms to play darts or table tennis. At the end of the day, retreat to one of seven stylish bedrooms. There’s a charming double on the ground floor, while upstairs you’ll find six beautiful bedrooms: two doubles (one with an en-suite shower room), two king-sizes (one with an en-suite with a bath), a small twin that can be made up as king on request, and a king-size with an en-suite shower room that can be made up as twin upon request. All these rooms are served by an additional family shower room.
Set off with your pups to see the dramatic Cow and Calf Rocks (4 miles), or head to Bolton Abbey (5 miles) to explore its beautiful 12th-century ruins.
