Barn in North Yorkshire York, North Yorkshire

Property Description

This converted farm building is situated on the edge of York, so is an ideal retreat for a city break in the historic city, a walking holiday in the Yorkshire Dales or Moors, or just a day at the races. Set in the pretty Yorkshire village of Upper Poppleton, Model Farm sits on the village green opposite the maypole and close to amenities such as a mini supermarket and a couple of traditional dog friendly pubs. This property is situated close to York, yet with easy access to the countryside and the Yorkshire Coast. As there is secure gated parking, many guests leave their car at the property and use the village bus or train station to travel around the area. York is famous for its iconic Minster, the National Railway Museum and the Jorvik Viking Centre. Alternatively, the market town of Knaresborough or the elegant town of Harrogate are within 20 miles by car or a short train ride. Knaresborough, home to Mother Shipton's Cave, also hosts a weekly market and Harrogate boasts an historic spa where you can spend a day indulging in some relaxation, or you can browse the shops or indulge in an afternoon tea at Betty's tearooms. The Stable is decorated with an eclectic mix of furnishings and original features, including beams. The kitchen is well equipped with an induction hob, electric oven, microwave, fridge with a freezer compartment and a full size dishwasher.
