Pasture House

Ripon, North Yorkshire

Located within it's own grounds on the Thornton Watlass Estate near the thriving market town of Bedale, Pasture House was thoughtfully restored in 2024 to create a beautifully appointed detached holiday home that provides comfortable accommodation for up to eight guests. Set in a perfect location for discovering the Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors and the highly sought-after Ripon and Harrogate area, this hideaway is not to be missed!

With far-reaching, 360-degree views across surrounding countryside, Pasture House is a welcoming family friendly and dog friendly property, boasting a large garden, beautifully decorated rooms, a spacious farmhouse kitchen, and a dining room. Exuding grandeur and oozing style, this home is a special place to enjoy time away with loved ones all year round.

The spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area features an Aga, roaring wood burning stove set in the original fireplace, and magnificent rural views from every window. There are two tastefully decorated sitting rooms, both with the added luxury of an electric living flame stove or traditional open fire and delightful views across the garden. A convenient ground floor bedroom offers full size 3' twin beds, with a shower room and utility room also located on this floor. Upstairs on the first floor there are two family bathrooms each featuring a free standing roll-top bath and large walk in shower, three bedrooms (a super-king size and two king-size) each individually designed using luxury soft furnishings. There is also a games room should any guests seek to bring out their competitive side.

Stepping outside, either through the front or rear entrance, guests have various patios for taking in the superb views across toward the North York Moors or Penhill looking down onto Wensleydale. A charcoal barbecue is provided for guests to enjoy throughout the warmer months. For dining out, the local pub The Buck Inn is a 15 minute walk away - perfect if you have spent the day watching the village cricket from the green or exploring one of the many bike trails and walks from the doorstep. After a day of long walks, a designated dog wash with hot and cold running water is located in the rear courtyard. For e-bike hire, contact Yorkshire Bike Hire, or Dales Bike Centre in the heart of Swaledale, the largest bike hire centre in the Yorkshire Dales. Pasture House has secure bike storage available for those wishing to bring their own bikes, and there is an app operated EV charger on site.

Pasture House makes for the ideal base for all ages to experience an action packed holiday discovering North Yorkshire and more. From the Himalayan Gardens near Masham to Wensleydale Creamery in Hawes, famous for Wallace and Gromit's favourite, Wensleydale cheese, there is something for everyone.
