Description

We are excited to be launching this magnificent property which has been awarded a quality 5* Gold grading. Relax and unwind at this perfect haven of tranquillity, located in Harmby just outside the popular market town of Leyburn in beautiful Wensleydale. This luxury stone built detached property has been completely modernised and renovated to an exceptionally high standard. The stunning interior combines a mixture of contemporary and traditional style and benefits from equally stunning views over to Middleham from the front windows, conservatory and balcony. 

This high-quality property will impress at every turn, with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, with exception of the conservatory that has a wall mounted radiator.  It boasts an immaculate finish inside that provides pure luxury throughout.  Step first into the hall where your eye will immediately be drawn up towards the galleried landing with modern oak and glass bespoke staircase, framed beautifully by stylish feature lights and which is flooded with natural light from the apex windows above. Next, discover the superb, open-plan lounge and kitchen/dining area.  The bespoke kitchen incorporates a wide range of high quality integrated appliances, together with granite worktops and a central island which doubles as a breakfast bar. You’re sure to enjoy curling up on an evening beside the traditional wood-burning stove in the lounge. You’ll also find art by renowned Dales artist Lucy Pittaway, to admire. Also on the ground floor is the charming conservatory, where you can take advantage of the views across the Dales or head out onto the wrap around balcony, which in turn takes you down to the landscaped gardens and access to the hot tub. The ground floor bedroom and en-suite offers easy access. 

Upstairs, the small study area provides a laptop for guests to use. Each of the two other stunning bedrooms all feature the same quality of décor and furnishings, resulting in the ultimate sleep experience. Each bedroom is equipped with a Smart TV, Amazon Echo and their own en-suite bathroom or shower rooms. The master bathroom suite also enjoys the added luxury of an Aquavision TV in the wall, so you can enjoy watching your favourite shows whilst having a relaxing bath.

The attention to detail in Feathered Nest is second to none, offering guests a high level of luxury and elegance whilst retaining a relaxed homely atmosphere in what can only be described as a truly spectacular part of the country. The generous welcome pack will ensure that your holiday gets off to a great start.

Reviews

Our stay at Feathered Nest far exceeded our expectations. The property, furnishings, layout, decor and design were superb. It was absolutely faultless, the attention to detail was second to none. It felt more like a luxury home than a holiday letting, the host was lovely and the welcome pack was exactly what we needed after a long drive. We had such an enjoyable stay, the best we have had at a holiday stay property. We will definitely be back!

Mrs Amy L,

Dear Clare & family, Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful part of the world with us. We have had the best time in your lovely home. The attention to detail, styling, furnishings and luxury level of comfort have made our stay 6 star! We couldn't fault the place is it the best holiday home we have ever stayed in and it truly will be a Christmas to remember. We will definately be back. Thank you for the beautiful welcome hamper, sorry we couldn't eat/drink it all. We all got a little carried away at Campbells and have left you some things in the cupboard, fridge and freezer we hope you will be able to use. Enjoy the Gin and the chocolates. Lots of love

The A,

What a beautiful place Feathered Nest is. We have all enjoyed a luxury weekend. Everything has been thought of above and beyond we ever expected. The house is beautifully furnished and we felt very much at home. Thank you very much

Previous Customer,

Heaven! Thank you so much for a lovely week in your beautiful house , will all our needs catered for and more! We loved the house so much we didn't want to leave it for days out This is a 5Star property at a 5star location, we loved every second of our stay. The children absolutely loved the Pumkins, Balloons,decorations and sweets so lovely of you. We have taken lots of ideas for our own barn conversion, we cant wait to return. Lots of love xxxx

Previous Customer,

This is without doubt the best house that I’ve ever booked for a holiday. Not only is the house beautiful and very well decorated, but it has everything in it to make your stay as comfortable as staying in a 5 star hotel. I must mention the host who went above all expectations by organising pumpkins in the house ready for the kids to carve as well as treating us to a lovely hamper of local goods. I will be returning! I have no choice since my wife has fallen in love with the house as well as the kids, and this should give me bonus points for at least 6 months!! I wanted a relaxing holiday and this house put a big tick in that box. Thanks Clare for a lovely stay

Previous Customer,

This was a very well appointed property with excellent hosts living in the adjacent property. Couldn't find any fault at all and had a great holiday.

Mr Roger C,

Feathered Nest is a very stylish and comfortable property which was an excellent base for our week in Yorkshire.

Ms Louise F,

What a gorgeous place to stay! We've thoroughly enjoyed the comfort and style at Feathered Nest - also the stunning views. The heavy rainhas made it a great week to view waterfalls! summer days were perfect for exploring the Dales. Thank you for creating such a lovely home and for the generous welcome pack.

Shame about the weather but that's life. Thank you.

Past Customer,

Thank you Clare and Andy for a gorgeous stay. We have loved making memories at the amazing Feathered Nest and celebrating birthdays as a family. The house is just beautiful. The decor and attention to detail is exquisite!! It's been a pleasure and a privilege to stay in such a beautiful house. The welcome pack was a lovely touch as well. Thank you again and we can't wait to re-visit!

Past Customer,

Once again had a fabulous time.

Joanne & S,

When you enter Feathered Nest the spacious hallway with beautiful staircase is amazing. The whole cottage has a warm and welcoming feel, with all bedrooms offering modern ensuites (all with underfloor heating!), and the views throughout are fabulous. The décor is second to none, and everything you could possibly want or need for a restful stay is available. The boot room gives ample space to leave wet coats and muddy boots, and the kitchen is equipped with the most up to date appliances. Our teenage girls loved the coffee machine and were totally spoilt with hot chocolate! The log burner was also a winner, especially during the cold snowy evenings. There is no doubt we will be returning to this fantastic cottage in the very near future. Thank you for having us :)

Past Customer,

Thanks for a lovely Christmas! Everything judged perfectly - the warm welcome tree and decorations, hamper, cake and every other thoughtful touch. We've enjoyed very much this beautiful house and the surrounding area. Happy new year and all the best for the future.

Without any doubt this is one of the best properties we have ever stayed in. From the moment we arrived we felt relaxed and comfortable. Clare has thought of everything!

Mrs Margaret W,

Fantastic hosts, accommodation superb, the owners have thought of everything. We will be back soon.

Area Information

Leyburn
At the heart of Wensleydale lies the gateway town of Leyburn, "A Town for all Seasons". With spectacular views of the surrounding countryside, unusual local shops and cafes, traditional pubs and a weekly market, it's an ideal base for walking, sightseeing, or just watching the world go by. There's lots to see and do in the town, whether it's the wonderfully quirky Forbidden Corner, the annual food and drink festival celebrating the best of local produce, the stunning Harmby waterfall or taking a trip on the Wensleydale Railway- Leyburn provides the perfect base for a Yorkshire Dales break.

Harmby
The thriving village of Harmby in Lower Wensleydale is ideally located for exploring the best of what this beautiful area has to offer whilst offering a tranquil escape close to the bustling market town of Leyburn. The Harmby Waterfall is just one of a number of local beauty spots close to the village and is accessed by a footpath from the main road; the gorgeous meadows surrounding the village are perfect for leisurely walks and are just one way of reaching Leyburn's shops, pubs, restaurants and delis from the village. However, you don't need to venture to Leyburn to experience the Yorkshire Dales famous real ales, the village has two local pubs, The Old Horn Inn in Spennithorne and the Pheasant Inn,which located at the top of the village. The village is serviced by a fish and chip van every Thursday and the sense of community here is sure to give any visit a taste of the true Yorkshire Welcome the dales is so well known for.
