Accommodation: A historical farmhouse This ancient stone farmhouse, believed to be a medieval structure but refurbished in 1635, is found at the end of a long farm lane running downhill to a peaceful river valley. With views of the Dales from every window and only the sounds of the river, owls and seasonal stock to punctuate the silence of the night, guests can expect a restful stay. Stone mullioned windows, wood beams and large open fireplaces dictate the simple décor, which is complemented by 17th century oak furniture and Persian rugs. A concession to more relaxed living is the conservatory, where guests can breakfast in the sunshine while enjoying bacon and eggs. The Dales are home to a wealth of castles, churches, country houses and gardens within a 40 mile radius, including Bolton Abbey, Harewood House, Ripley Castle, Newby Hall and Castle Howard. York, Durham, Richmond, Helmsley, Harrogate and Skipton are also close. |
