Need to reconnect with nature? This former barn invites families to a rural retreat, complete with neighbouring sheep and chickens to feed. The garden melts into the surrounding landscape, great for alfresco tea parties and barbecues. You'll find a bright interior indoors with a flexible bed set-up in the twin room to cater to couples as well as kids. Hiring a car is crucial, as York and Harrogate are must-do day trips. Plus, you're only 12 miles from a designer shopping outlet.

About North Yorkshire
England’s largest ceremonial county, almost half of North Yorkshire is covered in National Parkland. The wild hinterland of the North Yorkshire Moors can be discovered on foot over meandering paths, or from the comfort of a Victorian carriage on a vintage steam train.
