Sunset Barn dates back to the Regency period and is set amidst stunning scenery on the edge of the North York Moors National Park in a quiet, rural location, on the owner’s working suckler herd farm.

This property provides a tranquil retreat, yet is within easy access of the pretty market towns of Helmsley, Pickering, Malton and Thirsk. Sympathetically converted to provide comfortable accommodation, this property welcomes you with original beams, wood burner, stone flagged floors throughout and the added bonus of an elegant free-standing bath sat in front of large bi-folding doors. There are blinds in the bi-folding doors that run from the bottom up to the top.
Lovingly furnished with a homely Yorkshire feel this property ensures a memorable holiday. Entry is via a large boot room, an ideal place to hang up walking clothes, storing bikes or as an area for dogs to dry out after a day exploring.

Sunset Barn offers open-plan living with stone floors throughout and a deep Chesterfield sofa. The farmhouse style kitchen/dining area is separated from the kingsize bedroom by a rustic brick wall, with the lovely feature of a duel facing wood burner. One of the original windows has also been cleverly incorporated into the wall so you can catch a glimpse throughout the property. The boutique style wet room completes the accommodation.
Outside is a private garden offering both a lawn and patio area, an idyllic spot to sit and relax. Freshly laid eggs from the free range chickens are available to purchase or pick some of the many herbs available in your garden area to add to some delicious home cooked recipes?
This beautiful part of North Yorkshire is a walkers and cyclist’s paradise, with miles of footpaths, cycle routes and bridle ways not to mention the Coast-to-Coast and Cleveland Way paths. Nearby lies Byland and Rievaulx Abbey, Helmsley Castle, the National Bird of Prey Centre and Castle Howard, home to ITV’s ‘Victoria’. For history enthusiasts, the historic city of York is only a 40-minute drive away as is the North Yorkshire coast and seaside towns of Whitby, Scarborough and Bridlington. Beach 24 miles.

We stayed for a week from 14 August and we loved Sunset Barn.
We stayed for a week from 14 August and we loved Sunset Barn. We were welcomed by a lovely hamper of treats, and with milk and butter in the fridge, and tea and coffee. These were all very welcome as we arrived late and hadn't had time to shop. The accommodation had everything we needed. It is beautifully finished to a very high standard. The property is on a working farm and we enjoyed looking out on the cows and calves every morning. The property is situated between two lovely towns - Pickering and Helmsley and we were close to many places of interest. Graham and Shirley were very welcoming and it felt like nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
