Yorkshire Dales at its best. The Healthy Home sleeps 17 and is a beautiful haven for family gatherings, birthdays, business getaways or Yoga Retreats. A perfect celebration venue with breathtaking views, cosy spaces & private sheltered terraces. Minutes from Skipton. Featured on TV.
The house is a collection of three buildings that work well to offer many spaces to be together and have retreat and privacy (6 reception rooms and 2 kitchens, one with log fire). This is an ideal place for multi-generations or three families to holiday together with parents and children in each of the three buildings: The New Building, the Barn and the Cottage form one house. The house is a product of loving design and attention to detail, curving surfaces and all natural materials including wood, marble and natural eco paints. The sensitive renovation & building work inspired a best-selling book called The Healthy Home. People visiting from the city often find they sleep unexpectedly deeply, feeling rested and rejuvenated. The house has been filmed by BBC TV and Channel 4 News and Yorkshire Television have broadcast their Calendar evening news programme live from the house.
The 750 year old original cottage was extended in 1997 by conversion of the barn and then in 2004 the stunning extension was added with its 2-storey high 2 metre wide windows, offering a twenty mile view over the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. A beautiful conservatory built out into the private woodland overlooks the breathtaking panorama.
Two private terraces offer magnificent views and the garden is a nature haven with a small field and woodland behind and a protected hillside wild garden in front. Organically cultivated for the 50 years we have owned it, the garden is quite a nature sanctuary…. we've counted 30 species of birds. The nature garden also features a pond often visited by Mallard ducks, pigeons, doves, herons and even peacocks. Our Pear Tree is visited by partridges too!
We have two fully fitted kitchens, one of which is located in the Panorama Penthouse Suite on the 1st floor with stunning views, its own lounge area attached and next door double bedroom and bathroom.
Special Notes:
Our location in a hillside with steps between buildings which means we are not suitable for people with limited walking ability. We do not accept any pets as that helps keep the house pet allergen- free.
PLEASE NOTE: **** The minimum stay advised for most weekends is three nights not two. A 3-night stay is much better value. Two nights effectively give you just an evening and one day in this huge property of 20 rooms and most guests say they wish they had booked longer stays.
Please contact the host with any questions about the property and for information about current SPECIAL OFFERS

“Great Location for Large Group”
The house is all one would wish for. Lots of room, two kitchens and plenty of shower facilities. Thanks to the weather we were able to dine al fresco and the tables made this possible for our family of thirteen. Views are stunning especially at sunset. Only negatives - while the local pub is only 2.5 miles away, the climb back is quite challenging. Also, the lawn has been left wild which makes outdoor games virtually impossible. Highly recommended.

“Just a brilliant house!!!”

“The most amazing hen weekend!”
We booked the Healthy Home Retreat by chance after our original booking for the weekend cancelled on us last minute and I am SO glad we did! The hosts were absolutely lovely from the get go and sent over loads of info via email before our stay (detailed directions, floorplans, local sights, restaurant recommendations etc.) which was super helpful. When we arrived Gina was there to greet us and give us a tour of the house/show us how to work the heating etc (again super helpful as it’s HUGE!!). Not only is the interior amazing, but also the views of the surrounding countryside - we were also lucky enough to see a family of rabbits and a resident pheasant in the garden! Every little detail had been thought of - a lovely welcome hamper with local produce, cupboards stocked with tea/coffee/spices, a large selection of glassware, utensils, pots and pans, a sound system with Bluetooth connection and even a disco light for when the party got started later on! The bedrooms were spacious with plenty of hanging space for clothes and a number of mirrors which was perfect for when we were all getting ready! There were loads of bathrooms too (6 I think?!) so there was never a queue for a shower. There was also loads of communal space, including a tearoom, yoga room, TV room, conservatory, two kitchens and a dining room with a table big enough to seat at least 16 people. I could go on but I think you get the picture of how fab this place is! I’ll definitely be returning back again in the future!

“Fabulous place for a family break”
Beautiful location! The house is wonderfully equipped and great for our family of 12. We really appreciated having plenty of bathrooms and the large lounge areas and outside spaces were fabulous.
