The charming village of West Burton, located in the North Yorkshire region of England, is home to an exquisite 18th century Grade II listed Georgian country house. This remarkable property, set within the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park, accommodates up to 12 guests across its six well-appointed bedrooms, making it an excellent choice for family holidays or group getaways. The house exudes character and warmth, featuring working shutters on nearly all windows, and is designed over two spacious floors that invite relaxation and comfort.
Upon entering the ground floor, guests are greeted by three expansive sitting rooms, two of which are equipped with woodburning stoves, allowing for cozy gatherings or quiet moments apart. The farmhouse kitchen is a highlight, boasting a large dining table that serves as the perfect setting for shared meals after exploring the beautiful surrounding countryside. Upstairs, the six bedrooms are thoughtfully designed, each with a basin, and complemented by a wet room and a family bathroom featuring a freestanding bath, all providing lovely views of the garden and the picturesque landscape beyond.
The property is nestled within private grounds at the base of Penhill, where guests can enjoy delightful garden spaces that offer serene spots for relaxation and contemplation. The tranquil ambiance is enhanced by Walden Beck, which flows through the grounds, creating a peaceful atmosphere, particularly during the summer months. Just a short stroll from the house lies the village of West Burton, known for its expansive village green, a children's play area, and a welcoming pub that overlooks the green, as well as the breathtaking Cauldron Falls, adding to the village's charm.
For those seeking further adventure, the impressive Aysgarth Falls are only a mile away, while the vibrant towns of Leyburn and Middleham, with their diverse selection of shops and eateries, are within a twenty-minute drive. Slightly further afield, the picturesque towns of Reeth, Hawes, and Richmond are easily accessible, offering additional exploration opportunities.
