Located at the end of a long private track on the outskirts of the village of Bolton Abbey, Stank House Farm is a traditional stone farmhouse showcasing charming design features such as flagstone floors and stunning fireplaces. Part of the Bolton Abbey Estate, this hideaway boasts a hot tub, underfloor heating in the bathrooms, and some of the best views across the valley.

Built in 1744, Stank House Farm has been exquisitely renovated throughout an offers guests traditional ambience alongside plenty of modern amenities. The large entrance hall with traditional flag stone floor leads through to the impressive dining room where a large farmhouse dining table sits beneath exposed wooden beams. A grand fireplace with wood burning stove adds extra warmth and ambient light on chillier evenings. The well-equipped kitchen styled with granite work surfaces is located just off the dining room and provides all you need to create every meal from a light breakfast to a full 3-course banquet.

Leading off from the main entrance hall is the elegant, spacious sitting room which enjoys uninterrupted views across the valley. Featuring an impressive fireplace with a wood burning stove and plenty of comfortable seating, this room is an ideal place for the whole group to gather in the evening. French doors lead out onto the terrace and gardens that wrap around the farmhouse. Conveniently located on the ground floor is a large double bedroom with panoramic views towards Bolton Abbey and beyond. An en suite bathroom with a shower over a roll top bath complete this floor.

Upstairs on the first floor there are two further tastefully furnished bedrooms (a super-king and a twin), each with en suite bathrooms.

The outside space around the cottage has been landscaped and designed with the ultimate enjoyment of the breath-taking location and panoramic views in mind. To the rear of the cottage a large landscaped garden features stone-flagged terrace with a seating area in complete seclusion and peace. With unspoilt views of Bolton Abbey and beyond, the garden terrace boasts a hot tub.
