This imaginatively converted Grade II listed former church offers cosy, welcoming and unique accommodation for couples looking for a lovely retreat on the outskirts of the beautiful North York Moors.
Helmsley, located just a couple of miles from the property, is one of the prettiest towns in Yorkshire and lies just on the outskirts of the glorious North York Moors. The wonderful heather-covered moors offer plenty of opportunities for breathtaking walks and bike rides, stretching out for some 600 square miles. You could also explore the Howardian Hills (5 miles), an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, to the south. Helmsley and the delightful neighbouring town of Pickering offer a range of lovely pubs, restaurants and independent shops. Local attractions include Castle Howard (13.5 miles), Duncombe Park (1.5 miles), Nunnington Hall and Rievaulx Terrace (3 miles). The historic city of York (24.5 miles), home of York Minster, Jorvik, the Shambles and Castle Museum, is also within easy reach.
This breathtaking property has been lovingly converted from a 19th-century church which was originally designed by Temple Lushington Moore, one of the Gothic Revival's greatest architects. It retains many unique features including hand-painted ceiling arches, original pews, fonts and stained-glass windows. The lounge/diner is an atmospheric space, but also has plenty of comfortable seating, a charming dining area and more modern facilities including a TV with Netflix and a Bluetooth speaker. The main king-size bedroom – which can be made up as a twin room on request – is to be found in the original part of the building. Heading past the feature stone wall, you will move into the new extension where you will find the attractively designed kitchen/diner, which has a lovely dining area and is fully equipped with everything you may need. Exploring further, there's a second lounge with a double sofa bed, as well as a family bathroom complete with shower over the bath and a WC. There's also a separate wet room, and underfloor heating can be enjoyed throughout the extension.
Stepping outside, you can relax in the private garden with its terrace, heather garden and a selection of outdoor furniture. This is an ideal spot for dining al fresco while admiring the stunning North York Moors.
Dogs are charged at £20 each per full or part week.
