Oughtershaw Hall, a stunning vacation retreat located in Skipton, North Yorkshire, offers a unique blend of historical charm and modern amenities. Originally transformed from a medieval farmhouse into a shooting lodge in the 1850s, this expansive property accommodates up to 16 guests across its eight beautifully styled bedrooms. The hall is enveloped by serene woodlands and picturesque valleys, creating a tranquil atmosphere that evokes the grandeur of a bygone era. Guests can admire original features such as intricate stained-glass windows, carved paneling, and a remarkable guestbook dating back to the mid-18th century, all while enjoying contemporary comforts.
Upon entering through the impressive stone loggia, visitors are greeted by a labyrinth of stone-flagged passageways leading to various cozy seating areas. Each space offers its own unique ambiance, from the inviting drawing-room with a roaring fire to the snug sitting room featuring a woodburning stove and stunning stained-glass windows. The historical oak table, inscribed with the initials of a previous owner, and a hidden peephole add to the hall's rich narrative. For those seeking a quieter retreat, the library provides a perfect setting to unwind with a book, accompanied by the soothing sounds of the nearby beck.
The vast, well-equipped kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring an open-plan design with a spacious breakfast bar and a large dining table suitable for the entire party. Adjacent to the kitchen, a contemporary utility room and a boot room with an 8-seater sauna enhance the convenience of the space. For entertainment, a basement games room promises fun for guests of all ages. The first floor houses seven exquisitely designed bedrooms, many boasting original character features, window seats, and luxurious en-suites, including a downstairs bedroom with an en-suite shower room, ideal for guests with limited mobility.
Just a short walk from the main house, the swimming pool, housed in a converted farm building, features bespoke windows and atmospheric underwater lighting, making it a perfect spot for relaxation. The original entrance leads to the gardens, where guests can explore the romantic ghyll and enjoy the natural beauty of the surrounding area, including Malham Tarn and Wensleydale. The hall's patio offers breathtaking views, inviting guests to soak in the serene environment that truly embodies the essence of rural Yorkshire. With its rich history and luxurious amenities, Oughtershaw Hall is an idyllic getaway for those looking to experience the charm of the North of England.
