Indulge in a romantic stay for two at this enticing barn on a farm close to Stamford Bridge in the attractive East Riding of Yorkshire. Situated 2 miles from the picture-postcard village and 9 miles from the vibrant city of York, the one-bedroom, single-storey hideaway offers comfort and character between your many excursions out into the beautiful surroundings. Head off on long walks and cycle rides from the doorstep, or plan trips out into the Howardian Hills or the dramatic North York Moors.

Let yourselves into the barn to be greeted by characterful features such as high ceilings and exposed beams. The heart of the hideaway is an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner where you can unwind together before and after each adventure. This cosy space features soft seating where you and your significant other can curl up with a good book or watch the Smart TV. Prepare special meals over in the well-equipped kitchen area then cosy up at the breakfast bar to enjoy them. As night falls, wander through to the double bedroom, which has a well-appointed en-suite shower room and a TV to allow you to have long, lazy mornings in bed. Open the French windows in here on summer mornings so you can step out into the courtyard garden with a cup of coffee. Dine outside in the fresh air on fine days too. Light the BBQ here or enjoy a stroll around the owner’s beautiful, shared gardens.

Treat yourselves to days out in York, where you can book tables in eateries and browse the shops, including those tucked away in the delightful Shambles. Visit York Minster, the Castle Museum and the old city walls. Venture 10 miles into magnificent Howardian Hills. The North York Moors National Park, with its many walks and cycle routes, is 22 miles away.
