Set in a spectacular location with sweeping views over Nidderdale, this impressive stone-built farmhouse is a wonderful place for families or friends to escape to the countryside.

Skipton (9 miles) is another favourite, with its impressive castle, bustling market and canal-side walks. Further afield, the elegant town of Harrogate (19 miles) offers beautiful parks, boutique shopping and its famous Victorian spa heritage.
