Set in one of the most beautiful parts of Yorkshire, this formerly derelict barn was chanced across by its owners in 2015, and lovingly converted into the stunning home it is today. The vibe is English country, with real moments of grandeur. With antlers on the walls, fine china ornaments, touches of tartan, and a solid teak dining table that wouldn’t look out of place in a stately home, it’s the kind of place you can imagine a hunting party coming back to after a day out on the moors. The grand feel continues in the bedrooms, each of which is as luxurious as the last but has its own unique design. We can see ourselves spending windswept days walking the hills of God’s Own Country before returning to pre-dinner drinks by the fire in the snug (the original stone floor is particularly gorgeous). Once the kids are set up with a movie in the second living room, a candlelit meal around the dining table beckons, followed by a session in the wood-fired hot tub.

Host
This home is managed by Sarah
This home is managed directly by its owner who will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Sarah and her family are fourth generation farmers and have a passion for the great outdoors. They stumbled across this home in 2015, at which time it was totally derelict, and brought it back to life using their creativity, local builders and free labour from their twin daughters! They love sharing this part of beautiful North Yorkshire with their guests.
