This beautiful barn conversion is situated just outside a pretty village in the North York Moors. With an outdoor hot tub, pretty courtyard garden and an impressive leisure suite included, it's a fabulous holiday cottage for those looking for something extra. And to top it off, there is a heavenly country pub within walking distance.

The charm of the old farm buildings have been preserved perfectly with the use of exposed wooden beams and brickwork, however, the interior has a classic contemporary finish. There are two large bedrooms, one with a large en-suite bathroom and the second with access to a wet room.

The cottage also features a lovely farmhouse kitchen and a very comfortable lounge/dining area complete with wood burner. Flagstone flooring with underfloor heating lends a stylish touch.

The south-facing courtyard and gardens feature a hot tub, patio and gas BBQ area, perfect for al fresco frolics in the warmer months. In the winter months, the wood burner and comfy sofas make for the perfect snug hideaway.

The cottage has its own exclusive hot tub and also shared access to some fantastic leisure facilities including a mini gym, treatment room, sauna and relaxation area. You'll also find a fully stocked games room with table tennis, pool and table football

The cottage is set in the rolling Howardian Hills in the western reaches of the North York Moors. Designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1987, the lush pastures and woodlands of the western Moors play host to grand country houses, atmospheric ruins and handsome market towns. The very pretty village of Hovingham is just a 2-mile drive and features several pubs, a tea room and local store.

The beautiful market town of Helmsley (10 miles) is also close by and is well worth a visit. If you fancy a little pampering you'll find a fantastic day spa here - perfect for a little indulgence!

You're also close to Castle Howard (4 miles), York (20 miles) and the North Yorkshire coast (30 miles), so there is lots of choice for day trips.

The Stables were just perfect for our Christmas stay with our two teenage daughters and our two dogs. The owners left nothing to chance and our first experience of what was a truly quality luxury rural retreat will not be our last; we will be returning.

The Stables is a lovely barn conversion, really comfortable and clean. The owner left a hamper with tea, coffee and breakfast things, plus a bottle of wine which was really thoughtful. The garden is shared with another cottage but is laid out so we never felt overlooked when sitting out on the patio or in the hot tub. The games room is great for olRead moreder children and gym is small but well thought out. Hovingham bakery is worth a visit and The Grapes in Slingsby does amazing pizzas! Hide

Great location for visiting places not too far away. Felt immersed in the countryside with cowslips and birds aplenty. Short flat walks around and about for those who don't do big ones. Enjoyed watching the Red squirrels at the Arboretum just a few miles away. Travelled home with gaps filled with plants from the garden centre there and the HelmsleyRead more walled garden but pop up plant sales around too. Ate well in Hovingham at the hotel, carpeted to help those hard of hearing! Hide

We have visited the stables twice now and have never been disappointed. The cottage is very warm and cosy and the hot tub is great after a day exploring. We stayed for a week this time, wish it had been longer
