Osmund's Firewood Osmotherley, North Yorkshire

Holiday Rental Description

Set within the North York Moors National Park, the village of Osmotherley is a quaint resting spot for hikers and history fans. As this fantastic home is located just a four-minute drive from the Mount Grace Priory House and Gardens, you might fancy spending the day roaming the ruins of a medieval monastery. Or with hills to the north and south, you can amble to your heart’s content. Either way, this magnificent house will be ideal to come home to after exploring the beauty of Yorkshire.

Although it’s set over three fabulous floors, the entrance is truly the heart of the home. Modern, elegant, and opulent, the decor makes use of natural elements like wood and stone, with a muted colour palette. You’ll love stepping into the open-plan kitchen, where a huge skylight allows soft sunlight to beam down while you enjoy a hearty brunch. Or in the evening, you might find yourself by the log-burning stove in the formal dining space, sipping red wine alongside a Sunday roast. Afterwards, head up to the top floor, where you can admire the original architecture of chunky timber beams in the eaves of this grand country home.
