This is the ultimate house for a special reunion with friends or family, located in the charming village of Markington on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales.
This gorgeous, three-storey house with a superior feel is ideal for families or friends looking for a unique property to enjoy a relaxing get-together in a private space. Markington is between Harrogate and Ripon, making it the perfect base to explore the Yorkshire Dales and the North York Moors. The splendid Ripley Castle is 3.5 miles away, offering a fascinating day out for all ages, with activities including water sports on the lake, or archery and bushcraft skills.
Cross a stone-paved courtyard to reach the entrance of this impressive house, where the steps lead into a beautiful entrance hall. The overall feel is welcoming and inviting, with wood panelling, exposed beams, and contemporary comforts to offer an unforgettable stay. Downstairs, the spacious kitchen and dining room are ideal for socialising and celebratory suppers. The handcrafted kitchen has everything you need to make meal preparation a cinch. After a day of exploring, you can choose which seating area to unwind in within the lounge. Stretch out on the sofas or armchairs, watch a movie on the Smart TV, and pop a log into the two wood burners for cosy nights. On the first floor are four bedrooms; two super-king-size, both with en-suite shower rooms, one super-king-size with an en-suite bathroom, and one king-size with an en-suite bathroom. On the top floor is a delightful super-king-size suite split into two areas, ideal for a family and connected to a shower room. Throw open the doors from the lounge and kitchen to your private patio and enjoy a vast expanse of landscaped gardens and ponds.
The historic cathedral city of Ripon (6.5 miles) and the stately home at Harewood House (15 miles) are well worth visiting. Discover the local countryside with a walk up to Brimham Rocks (6.5 miles) or head 10 miles into Nidderdale National Landscape to pretty Pateley Bridge.
