About this property

A contemporary one bed roomed apartment which is spacious and fully self contained on the ground floor of a detached annexe which sits within a working farm 300 feet above the city of York on a wooded hillside that lies between two castles. The dramatic ruins of King Richard III’s Sheriff Hutton Castle and the Baroque majesty of Castle Howard (famous as the location for the film and TV series Brideshead Revisited). Off the beaten track with big views over the Yorkshire Wolds & the Vale Of York, yet just 12 miles away from the ancient walled city of York. Our guests say they really love the peace and quiet here after a days sightseeing in York the Moors or the coast. The apartment has marble tiled floors with under floor heating for a very cosy winter break or a cool summer holiday. Bring along your walking boots or If you have one, bring your dog/s along too as we are pet friendly and surrounded by tranquil traffic free woods and fields to walk in. The walks to and around Castle Howard are particularly enjoyable. There is a charge of just £15 per dog stay.

Idyllic Setting

An amazing studio in an idyllic setting - part of a small village surrounded by fields and livestock. Away from the hustle and bustle however near enough to attractions and cities. Fabulous hosts who are friendly and helpful. Poppy our miniature poodle loved every bit as much as we did.
