We cater for any type of holiday, whether you are walking or touring or just content to sit and relax and take in the panoramic view outside your window.
Surrounded by beautiful countryside in the heart of the 'Dales National Park' there is much to explore and enjoy. Come and unwind at your own pace and share with us this magic corner of Wharfedale.
We have bed and breakfast accommodation in our 17th century converted barn. The barn has been carefully converted to an exceptionally high standard with care taken to give each room its own character. Many of our regular guests have tried all 4 rooms before deciding on a favourite. The barn is separated from the Caravan Park and we regard our guests' privacy as paramount. This has created the ideal place to unwind, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

THE LOCAL AREA
Pleasantly situated in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, on the Duke of Devonshire's Bolton Abbey Estate, with breath-taking views of surely the finest scenery in Wharfdale.
Our family-run park is an ideal centre from which to explore and enjoy the Dales whether by car or on foot. There are many lovely walks for both the casual walker and the experienced rambler by the riverside or over the fells. A walk up "Simons" Seat and the Valley of Desolation is a must during your stay.
Skipton is our local town, only 8 miles away. An agricultural market town with a castle, museum, canal cruises, market stalls on most days and a park with a swimming pool, tennis court and 'pitch and putt'.
Bolton Abbey is 3 miles away. Famous for the Abbey itself and beautiful riverside walks leading to 'The Strid' and woods with nature trails, which have received several environmental awards.
Grassington, 6 miles away, is a large Dales village with interesting little shops and a cobbled square.
To make your stay extra special, treat yourself to a meal at one of our excellent local award winning restaurants or a pub meal at one of our local hostelries.
Delightful little villages such as Appletreewick, Burnsall, Thorpe, Linton, Kettlewell and Arncliffe are all close by. There is a Dales Railway with steam trains at nearby Embsay. During the summer there are many country events such as sports, agricultural shows and fairs.
