After a day walking in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, relax and enjoy the evening sun from the balcony looking out over the countryside. Tucked away in a quiet location in the rural village of Starbotton, this semi-detached, stone built barn conversion is set amidst the dramatic scenery of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. It has been lovingly converted and tastefully furnished, combining traditional features of original oak beams, Yorkshire stone floors and exposed stonework creating an ambient retreat. The Dales Way passes close by and a walk up Buckden Pike affords some stunning views and wonderful photo opportunities, along with some more gentle walks along the riverbanks. Nearby is the thriving village of Grassington which is well served with a variety of country shops, pubs and cafés. In summer it hosts an Arts Festival, where you will find some famous musicians, poets and comedians, and in winter it holds the Dickensian Festival to get you in the mood for Christmas. The bustling market town of Skipton is a little further afield and is known as the ‘gateway to the Dales’, its castle stands proudly at the head of its wide sweeping cobbled high street. There is a large selection of shops, pubs and restaurants, together with trips on the canal, a golf course and an indoor swimming pool. After all the daily activities in this magnificent Dale, take time to sit on the balcony, just off the living room, and take in the magnificent views. Alternatively, dine al fresco in the beautiful lawned garden surrounded by picturesque countryside or call at the family run village pub which serves food - a difficult choice!
