    Harmby House Region: Yorkshire Sleeps: 6 Overview Tucked in the rolling hills of Wensleydale and just moments from the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Harmby House is a masterpiece of traditional Yorkshire architecture brimming with contemporary comforts – including your very own alfresco hot tub! The moment you step inside you will appreciate these luxurious, bespoke interiors, with opulent rooms of modern oak and glass oozing splendour. You enter into a large hallway directly accessing the fabulous modern kitchen, which is set in a beautifully open-plan design with the rest of the social spaces, guaranteeing fun rustling up a treat for the whole group whilst still socialising! The central island, which doubles as a breakfast bar, creates plenty of space for meal-prepping as well as providing the perfect spot for casual snacking. And for total relaxation, get snug by the roaring log-burner after a day exploring the delights of the Dales! There’re two cosy sofas to settle into and a vast TV to switch on for a little entertainment! Around the whole property you will find the works of renowned local artist, Lucy Pittaway, which evoke a strong urge to step outside into the extraordinary natural environment which surrounds you in Wensleydale! The fabulous modern conservatory, with plenty of comfy seating, affords spectacular views of this landscape, while underfloor heating and an Amazon Echo in every room will have you feeling totally luxuriated. The stunning views can also be enjoyed across the three exquisite bedrooms, each with the same charming fusion of the traditional and contemporary styles which we see across the living spaces.
