THE HAYLOFT, pet friendly, character holiday cottage in Masham

The Hayloft in Ellingstring, North Yorkshire, sleeps four in two bedrooms.

This reverse-level home consists of a first-floor kitchen/diner with electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and washing machine, and a first-floor sitting room with TV with Freesat, Amazon fire stick and DVD player. The bedrooms rests on the ground floor and consists of two super-king-size (zip/link), serviced by a bathroom. Outside there is a shared, front courtyard with furniture, plus access to three acres of farmland, and off-road parking for two cars. Two well-behaved dogs welcomed, but sorry, no smoking. WiFi, fuel, power, bed linen and towels are all included in the price. You'll find a shop in 4.7 miles and a pub in 3.4 miles. For a rural escape to North Yorkshire, book The Hayloft. Note: Check-in from 3pm, check-out by 9am.

Please note: From April 1st 2026 to Oct 1st 2026, this property will only accept week-long bookings that begin and end on a Saturday. Please note: Due to the two pet sheep on site, dogs must always be kept on a lead.

Region: From heather-clad moors and limestone scars, to market towns and the steady pace of country life - the sublime Dales await you! Where else in Britain is it as satisfying to sit and do nothing as it is to explore the numerous pursuits on offer?

Town: The historic little market town of Masham is situated in the lower reaches of pretty Wensleydale alongside the River Ure. Set in gently rolling farmland, the town boasts a huge market square, where a Wednesday and Saturday market is held. There are lots of walks around the area, including a 10-mile walk along the Ure, arguably one of the best in the UK. The town boasts a good range of crafts, galleries, shops, restaurants and pubs and has become best known perhaps as the home of two breweries Theakstons of Old Peculiar fame and the Black Sheep Brewery, which now brews 11 million pints of beer a year! The popular towns of Ripon, Thirsk, Northallerton, Richmond and Harrogate are an easy drive away. With so much to see and do in the area, this is a great place for a holiday in all seasons
