Mrs George
Fabulous place away from it all in the North Yorkshire Dales. We stayed for a weekend with our GS dog at the end of the season in the autumn. Darker nights and peaceful surroundings were perfect to enjoy the wood fired hot tub and the stove inside our yurt. The owner and host Jo, has absolutely nailed the balance between comfort and luxury - breakfast was wonderful and the menu of home cooked food for evening was an unexpected delight! Our dog particularly enjoyed the enclosed field in front of the yurts to run around in, away from any sheep or chickens. Cosy and relaxing - just what we imagined with extra bonuses - would definitely recommend.
