2 The Croft

Located on the outskirts of Stirton near Skipton, North Yorkshire is 2 The Croft, a wonderful, five-bedroom home, inviting nine guests. Enjoying countryside views and a prime position within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, whilst offering flexible sleeping arrangements, a private garden with hot tub, and a contemporary interior, 2 The Croft makes the ideal base for a rural escape.

Benefit from three off-road parking spaces, before heading through the quirky pink door of the home with your personal belongings in tow. Be welcomed into the stylish open-plan living space with a fully-equipped kitchen with state-of-the-art appliances, a sleek breakfast bar, a lofty dining table, plush seating, a Smart TV, and a woodburning stove; the space also enjoys direct views out to the kitchen, making it the perfect place to dine, socialise, and make memories.

If you'd prefer to dine with the sunlight above, head outdoors and enjoy an alfresco affair upon the patio, before heading down to the stream at the bottom of the garden, relaxing in the summerhouse with a TV, or for an indulgent soak in the hot tub. On the ground floor you'll also locate a snug, a utility/pantry, and a study, offering plenty of space for your group to unwind.

When sleep calls, select between five well-appointed bedrooms, two of which rest on the ground floor, a double with a contemporary en-suite and dressing room and a single room, ideal for children. A king-size with en-suite, a double with en-suite, and a further double can be found upstairs, all complete with stylish accessories and serviced by a shower room.

If you can tear yourself away from your abode, head into Skipton to tour the Craven Museum & Gallery, practise your swing at the Skipton Golf Club, or stroll around the Skipton Castle Woods, before grabbing a bite to eat at one of the many restaurants dotted across the market town. The Yorkshire Dales Food & Drink Festival is held nearby, recommended to plan into your itinerary if you're a foodie, whilst trips to Grassington offer further attractions to explore, including the Grassington Folk Museum, Linton Falls, and the breath-taking Threshfield Quarry.
