This beautiful studio is within a stunning converted barn in the beautiful North Yorkshire village of Bilbrough. There are vaulted ceilings and exposed beams throughout and renovated to a high standard. Plenty of walks in open countryside to be enjoyed with four public footpaths in the village. One mile from The Normans Wedding Venue. It’s only 6 miles into central York ,10 minutes by car from the Designer Outlet Village and six minutes to the Park & Ride (Askham Bar) for York.



The Space:

200 year old barn - originally a Carriage House, set in beautiful open countryside yet only two minutes from the A64 and five miles from York. Ideally located for York Races and a five minute drive from The Normans wedding venue. It is a ten minute drive from Woolas Barn wedding venue and 15 minutes from both Hornington Manor and Priory Cottages. The village is quiet with little traffic and therefore a safe environment for children. There is a lovely playground in the village. Storage for bicycles can be arranged by request.



There is a sofa bed as well as the SUPERKING sized bed. Standard pricing is for two guests and additional guests are charge at £30 per person per night. Where two guests wish to sleep separately please note that there is a £10 charge for the extra bedding, to cover the laundry fees.



Please note also that The Carriage House is over 200 years old. It is not a modern building! We have retained as many original features as possible. Sound can travel between the apartments; we clearly state this and ask for 'quiet hours' in our house rules. You might hear footsteps from above and/or below and possibly the sound of a tv. That said, the only noise you will hear externally is the sound of owls and foxes and possibly a tractor. There are no rowdy pub/club goers, very (very!) little traffic and no sirens or music.



Our Relaxation And Wellness Space (RAWS) has an Aspen 5/6 seater hot tub, a lounging area with a fire pit and a dining area - all under wooden gazebos. There is a sun terrace, yoga studio, fully fitted kitchen and bathroom plus a spacious decking area. This facility is available to book and is a perfect space for up to 30 guests. We hold regular yoga classes, retreats, parties and events here. Prices start from £200 for a full day of exclusive use (12 noon to 10pm). You can book the Hot Tub only (exclusive use) for £10 pp for a 90 minute session. Towels provided.
