This stylish barn conversion is in the heart of a beautiful village on the outskirts of York. Spacious, sociable interiors and fantastic transport links to the cathedral city make it an ideal choice for a small family or group of friends… and one canine companion can come too. Unwind in a wonderfully welcoming Yorkshire village where the countryside credentials are cemented by a maypole on the green, a choice of friendly local pubs and a mini-supermarket that will supply all your self-catering needs. Enjoy riverside walks from your doorstep, hop on the bus or train to explore one of England's most historic cities, or drive further afield and you can discover the delights of the North Yorkshire Moors and Yorkshire Dales – a holiday here can be as busy or laid-back as you’d like. Original beams, lovingly chosen furnishings and all the easy-living essentials make this former barn a home-from-home that’s memorable for all the right reasons. One of a small cluster of expertly restored buildings, the property is light and airy, thanks in part to the two entrance doors that lead to both its kitchen and lounge. In the first, you’ll find all the contemporary must-haves including an electric oven, induction hob, microwave, fridge and full-size dishwasher. Enjoy coffee and cereal at the breakfast bar or take your home-cooked evening meal into the adjacent dining area where you can eat and enjoy good conversation in a more formal setting. The lounge has lovely terrace garden views, comfortable seating and a Smart TV so you can keep up with your viewing favourites. And when it’s time to retire, a staircase leads up to two large bedrooms, each with original beams and a calming ambience. One has a double bed, the other has twin zip-and-link beds – for ultimate flexibility, this can be made up as a super-king-size on request – and each has easy access to the modern shower room. Doors from both the kitchen and lounge open onto a small terrace with garden furniture – enjoy food and drinks as you soak up the sunshine and sounds of the countryside!
