Plan a memorable group getaway at The Foldyard, a small and peaceful complex of three beautifully converted 200‑year‑old barns set around a traditional foldyard on a working farm in Holme‑on‑Spalding‑Moor. Sleeping up to 12 guests across The Stables, The Granary and The Barn, this flexible setup is perfect for multi‑generational families, groups of friends and celebrations where everyone wants to be together but still enjoy their own space. With the rolling Yorkshire Wolds, the historic city of York (19 miles) — home to the iconic Minster, The Shambles, Bettys and the River Ouse, plus Hull (22–23 miles), Castle Howard (23 miles), York Maze (summer), Williams Den, The Deep and the Yorkshire Air Museum all within an hour’s drive, it’s an unbeatable base for exploring Yorkshire. Dog‑friendly days out are plentiful too, from woodland trails and nature reserves to the wide sandy stretch of Fraisthorpe Beach (28.5 miles). At the centre of the site, a shared courtyard garden and fantastic games room make this a wonderfully sociable yet tranquil place to stay.
The Stables (sleeps 4, 2 bedrooms & 1 shower room) - All on one floor, The Stables offers a warm and welcoming retreat with its own private entrance, ideal for guests seeking a little extra rest and relaxation within the wider group. Inside, the open‑plan living area features high ceilings, exposed stonework, underfloor heating and a wood burner. The well‑equipped kitchen and dining area sit alongside a comfortable lounge with large patio doors. Two bedrooms, one king‑size zip‑and‑link and one double, provide flexible sleeping arrangements, served by a modern shower room. A perfect choice for grandparents, couples or anyone who prefers a quieter corner of the Foldyard.
The Granary (sleeps 4, 2 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms) - The Granary blends original character with contemporary comfort, offering a bright open‑plan living area with wooden beams, exposed stonework and calming blue tones. The stylish kitchen, extendable dining table and cosy lounge with a wood burner make it ideal for sociable mealtimes and evenings in. Upstairs are two bedrooms, a king‑size zip‑and‑link and a double, along with a family bathroom (bath with shower attachment), while the ground floor benefits from an additional shower room for convenience. An internal adjoining door links The Granary to The Barn, making the pair perfect for families or friends who want easy flow between spaces.
The Barn (sleeps 6, 3 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms) - The Barn is the largest of the three properties, offering generous open‑plan living with impressive A‑frame beams, a wood burner set into an exposed brick chimney breast and plenty of natural light from large double doors and roof windows. The spacious kitchen/diner and comfortable lounge make it ideal for group gatherings. The ground floor includes one double bedroom and a wet room, perfect for less mobile guests. Upstairs, a galleried landing leads to two further bedrooms — a king‑size zip‑and‑link and a double — along with a family bathroom (bath with shower attachment). An internal adjoining door connects The Barn to The Granary, allowing the two barns to function as one larger home when booked together.
All three barns share access to the attractive courtyard garden, where gravel paths and a brick‑and‑wood pergola create a lovely spot for morning coffees or evening drinks. Guests are welcome to wander the wider farm grounds, where you may meet the resident horses, ducks and sheep. The shared games room is a highlight for group stays, complete with a pool table, fridge, TV and comfortable seating — perfect for friendly competitions, film nights or watching the big match together.
