About this property

Ferndale House is a magical Grade-II listed, semi-detached property nestled into the heart of Middleham in North Yorkshire, offering the perfect retreat for families and friends seeking a peaceful countryside escape. Surrounded by the Yorkshire Dales National Park and plenty of amenities and attractions, Ferndale's location is ideal for those seeking to lace up their walking boots and head out into the rolling countryside. With all the necessities required to make your self-catered stay a success, Ferndale House is the ideal spot to relax and unwind. After parking up, step inside and explore your new home-from-home; set over three floors, there are four bedrooms to choose from, as well as a well-equipped kitchen/diner, formal dining room, utility and plenty of living spaces. The kitchen/diner is fully-equipped for all your culinary needs, perfect for whipping up homemade feasts for you and your loved ones, followed by a dinner around the dining table in the dining room, or in the garden. Unwind in the sitting room, a great spot to relax after a full day of exploring the Yorkshire Dales. Alternatively, spend some time in the first-floor snug, a great place to curl up with a good book, or take advantage of the summer house for some alfresco dining in the evenings. When you're not out exploring, you can relax in the enclosed rear garden with lawn, patio and furniture, a great place to soak up the afternoon sunshine. Explore the area with a trip to Leyburn, a market town just a few miles away, where you can wander around the local shops and sample the delicious restaurants. The beautiful city of Richmond is also within easy reach, with its Norman Castle, the Georgian Theatre Royal and the cobbled streets of the town centre. Of course, no stay in the Yorkshire Dales is complete without exploring the National Park itself, where you can find an abundance of walks, hikes, charming villages and awe-inspiring landscapes to immerse yourself in. Whether you choose to explore the local towns, venture through the hills or take a leisurely stroll, a stay at Ferndale is sure to be filled with everlasting memories.

The attractive Wensleydale town of Middleham is renowned for its history and race horses. Much of the history is bound up with its Norman castle, which dates from 1190 and has a castle keep second in size only to the Tower of London. The horses are a great sight as they make their way to the gallops every morning. The pretty market square is partially cobbled and offers a range of shops, pubs and places to eat. The bustling market town of Leyburn is just a short drive away offering a variety of great shops and pubs, or why not take some time to explore The Forbidden Corner, a unique labyrinth of tunnels, chambers and surprises set amidst 4 acres of grounds, providing a fun day out for all the family? All in all a superb base for exploring Wensleydale and all within easy driving distance of York, the North York Moors and the Yorkshire Dales and Heritage Coast.
