Barn on the Wolds Enjoy the natural beauty surrounding this historic getaway. A spacious, colorful two level, one bed converted Barn in a Conservation village. Peace, quiet and tranquility amongst the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Wolds. Explore the old big barn, the paddock, protected forest and our courtyard garden, all within the property. Wildlife, National bike trails, walking paths right outside the door; stately homes, National Parks and beaches not so far... The Barn has vaulted ceilings still retaining its wooden beams. Originally built in 1802, though the rest of the Farm complex is much older than that. It is connected to the main farm house-West Croft, but has 2 of its own entrances and lots of privacy. Open Plan with massive vaulted rooms make for a great space; the mezzanine style bedroom upstairs opens up to the living room. The East side of the building is largely glass so the outdoor patio is a great place to catch that morning sun with a coffee. Bathroom is updated with an entrance downstairs to the side of the full-kitchen through a sliding barn door. Hot Shower, heated bathroom floor in winter, lighted mirror and skylight make this pleasurable start to the day

We love to host in this beautiful area; we both love walking on the coast, Yorkshire Dales or North York Moors National Park. Neil's family are from Yorkshire back to the 1700's. Bi is from the Southern Philippines and getting her hands around this relatively new scenery, culture and temperature!! In the Philippines we loved having people over and showing them around, places to go, how to best spend their valuable time-off. We do believe that if someone who visits an area doesn't know it, much time can be wasted if there is no-one to offer them an insight. We offer as much input to our guests as they want...or as little too. We understand some people require their privacy and that's OK with us.
