About this property
A stay in this stone-built barn conversion offers the perfect countryside escape for a group of friends or family. Set on the owner’s farm and surrounded by sweeping rural views, it’s a peaceful base with beautiful walking and cycling routes beginning at your door. You’ll find yourself positioned between the Yorkshire Dales National Park and the Forest of Bowland National Landscape, both boasting spectacular landscapes and trails for all abilities. Spend the day exploring classic Dales towns and villages such as Settle, Skipton, Grassington, and Ingleton – home to stone cottages, welcoming pubs, and independent shops, all within 17 miles of home. Don’t miss the famous Ribblehead Viaduct (20 miles) or a hike up Ingleborough (13 miles) for panoramic views. Head into Lancashire and discover the beauty of the Ribble Valley and the market town of Clitheroe (12 miles) with its historic castle. The Lake District National Park begins 30 miles away for a lakeside picnic or a scenic boat trip.
Inside, discover a well-designed property made for memorable group getaways. Step into the porch, wipe muddy boots or dry off soggy paws, and enter the hallway with a convenient ground-floor WC. On the left, you'll find a well-appointed, accessible bedroom with sliding doors, a double bed, and its own en-suite wet room. At the heart of the house is the expansive open-plan living area. Get cosy in the lounge beside the wood burner, catch a film on the Smart TV with a soundbar, or gather around the large dining table that comfortably seats ten. The high-spec kitchen is a dream for foodies, featuring an island, breakfast bar, and views across the garden and rolling countryside. Throw open the patio doors and let the fresh air in while you cook, dine and relax. Upstairs, you’ll find four more spacious bedrooms: two king-size rooms (one with an en-suite shower room, the other with an en-suite WC), a super-king-size room for an extra splash of luxury, and a twin room. There’s also a sleek family bathroom with a freestanding bath, separate shower and twin sinks, plus an additional shower room for those busy times of day.
The outdoor space is just as impressive. Unwind in the covered garden room with its own wood burner and breathtaking open-fronted views, or fire up the gas Weber BBQ in the fully equipped outdoor kitchen complete with a double drinks fridge and generous dining table. Soak in the hot tub under the stars, let the kids and dogs run free in the large, enclosed garden, or freshen up in the external shower room/utility (with washing machine and WC) after a day of adventure. Off-road parking for up to six cars ensures a hassle-free stay from arrival.
