Osmotherley is a picturesque North Yorkshire conservation village, with grass and tree lined streets set on a small hillside on the western edge of the North York Moors National Park, nestling between the Cleveland Hills to the east and the Yorkshire Dales to the west. Osmotherley is very popular with cyclists and walkers with the Cleveland Way and the Coast-to-Coast long distance footpaths passing close by and it’s also the start (or finish!) of the famous Lyke Wake Walk. Osmotherley has attractive stone-built houses centred around an old village cross with three pubs, a picturesque coffee shop, a well-stocked general store and a fish and chip shop. The nearby market towns of Northallerton, Stokesley, Helmsley, Thirsk and Ripon with its famous racecourse, have cobbled market squares, quaint little alleyways awash with cosy tearooms and lovely delicatessens, all offering excellent shopping and weekly markets. The historic cathedral cities of York, Ripon, Durham and Newcastle are all within an hours drive, as well as the spa town of Harrogate; this great area has something for everyone.

Kitchen / Dining Area - Everything possible provided to make a meal. We found the 2 dishwashers was very handy with 10 of staying. Huge dining table so we could all sit down and enjoy our evening. The wine fridge was a nice touch aswell. Bedrooms and Bathroom - All bedrooms and bathrooms were immaculate, despite the house being full it was also very quiet while sleeping. Wasn't disturbed by friends who were up earlier than me. Outside Area - Patio Area and Jacuzzi were perfect, the pagola over the jacuzzi kept the winds out and provided spectacular views for as far as the eye can see. Drive easily fit 5 big cars on, bins and recycling area provided. Surrounding Area - Lovely walks nearby and friendly country pubs 10/10

Immaculate spacious accommodation, extremely well equipped with everything we could possibly need and lots of thoughtful extra touches which we werenât expecting. Beds very comfortable. Weâve stayed in a quite a few lodges over the years and would say this is the best weâve been to. Would definitely recommend and hope to return one day!

The house is stunning, the kitchen/ dining area was a fantastic space to socialise with the rest of the guests. The whole house is equipped for all needs (two dishwashers!) and plenty more. The house also includes a downstairs room with disabled access with a large walk in shower/wet room. All rooms are furnished beautifully and the bedding/pillows are such lovely quality. The whole house is immaculate with beautiful finishing, especially the barn gate hanging from the ceiling which was an amazing feature in the kitchen. As we were celebrating a 60th birthday, we found the location was great for a country getaway as well as a short taxi journey to Northallerton where we booked brunch at The Potting Shed. Overall the weekend was perfect and beyond our expectations, it is the nicest holiday home weâve visited, definitely recommend this beautiful home!
