Prepare magnificent meals of fresh farm produce in the ravishing rural kitchen, with its old oak table, directional lighting and all the mod cons and storage you’ll need. Savour mouthwatering feasts alfresco on the private patio, before soaking in the blissful first floor bathroom’s wide tub and then drifting off to one of the three dreamy bedrooms.

Harrogate is a haven for indulgence, rejuvenation and culture. Unwind at the restored Turkish Baths and explore Valley Gardens’ pine woods and the Stray’s 200 treasured acres of parkland. Discover Leed’s and York’s spectacular cathedrals, bustling markets, museums, galleries and boutiques, and take in the history of these impressive old cities. Spend a day at Wetherby Racecourse (11.5 miles), and visit romantic Bramham Park (15 miles), with its sublime views and architecture, rolling parkland and rose gardens. Amazing memories await.

This was a really lovely place to stay. Very clean, comfortable, well equipped and suited our needs perfectly. The Hosts were very welcoming, and it was was very peaceful. Sheep, lambs, chickens, geese and ducks including runner ducks provided very amusing entertainment in the field outside the kitchen window. A lot of decent walking right on the Read moredoorstep including Almscliffe Crag. Harlow Carr and Harrogate just a few miles away. Hide

The old barn is great place to stay for visiting the Yorkshire Dales. You feel that youre in the middle of country side yet shops and places to eat are just down the road. Brimham Rocks and Fountains Abbey are not far. Howarth and Grassington are worth a visit too. The accommodation is cozy and theres a well equipped Kitchen. Fantastic hosts too.

Wonderful cottage and location. We felt very much at home and Linda and Martin were such lovely hosts. The cottage has everything you need and is very cosy and comfortable. We loved looking at all the animals having a ball in their garden. The window spots are a real treat and kept our toddler very amused especially watching the ducks have a bath.

A lovely, comfortable property to base ourselves! The kids loved their beds, particularly our youngest (4) in the small room!

Lovely, well-equipped cottage. Extremely nice and communicative owners for whom nothing seemed too much by way of enquiry and freely suppled eggs a bonus! Wi-fi no problem.
