Located just outside of the Nidderdale AONB, the property is situated on the north-west fringes of Burnt Yates, a popular village set in beautiful countryside close to the villages of Ripley, Hampsthwaite and Birstwith. The elegant, spa town of Harrogate is easily accessible and provides a comprehensive range of shopping, leisure, cultural and educational facilities, including the outstanding-rated Harrogate Grammar School, St John Fisher and St Aidan’s High Schools.

To the front of the property, wooden gates open onto a driveway leading to the rear of the house giving access to the paddocks and field shelter, the annexe and a large two-storey stone barn building, which form a quadrangle courtyard with the cottage. There is also a second gateway and drive leading to the courtyard which provides ample parking for numerous cars. The garden has areas laid to lawn and beds planted with shrubs and perennial plants, with a dedicated vegetable garden. Low stone walling provides functional divides to the various areas within the grounds, where further outbuildings are located, including a timber cow shed and storage units. Open countryside vistas can be enjoyed from the garden and grounds offering a wonderful rural sanctuary to enjoy.
