Honey Pot Barn

Nestled in the midst of spectacular scenery on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moor, Honey Pot Barn has been lovingly converted from the original old stone cottage into a stunning, beautiful escape just for two. With a keen eye for interiors and attention detail, the owners have created a luxurious cottage with an open plan kitchen complete with a log burner to keep you toasty on chilly days and a super luxe master suite and bathroom. The owners have thought of everything you could possibly need and the little extras too that really make this cottage a beautiful escape to explore the hidden gems of North Yorkshire.

The perfect location for walkers and those who like to explore, straight from the cottage there are walks, cycle routes and woodlands to discover.

Parking on site, sorry no dogs. Babies in arms welcome.
