Enjoying a prime location just 125 metres from the market square in Helmsley, this exquisite property adds a touch of luxury to your North York Moors holiday. Part of a small, gated development, this exclusive five-star property has ample accommodation for up to six guests and also welcomes one four-legged friend. Featuring beautifully styled interiors, a welcome pack of premium goodies, and thoughtful touches throughout, it makes a magical base for family get-togethers and special occasions.
This three-storey property is a real gem. Light and spacious with an eye for great design, yet homely and welcoming, too. Downstairs, the main living areas are open-plan and thoughtfully laid out. Sip a drink at the breakfast bar while the chosen chef prepares dinner, and enjoy memorable meals gathered around the dining table. Then cosy up in the elegant lounge with a glass of wine to catch up on each other’s news or relax with a good book or film, in front of a roaring wood burner when the need arises. Outside, a small courtyard invites you to sip a morning cuppa or sundowner in warm weather. A double and king-size bedroom on the first floor and a second king-size on the top floor ensure a good night’s sleep for all. All bedrooms have en-suites with waterfall showers and night lighting; two of them also have a bath and built-in smart mirror TVs.
Helmsley offers a cosmopolitan base with attractions for all ages. This picturesque market town (market day is Friday) has some wonderful historic attractions, including the ruins of Helmsley Castle and the beautiful walled gardens below. It’s a pleasant walk to Duncombe Park and the National Centre for Birds of Prey (1 mile) and the ruins of Rievalux Abbey (3 miles). There’s also an Arts Centre, while the town acts as a gateway to the North York Moors.
