Nestled in the peaceful village of Thornton Watlass, just outside the charming market town of Masham, Foxes Retreat offers a comfortable and well-equipped base for families or groups looking to explore the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales and beyond. This spacious holiday home features four good-sized bedrooms, including two king-sized rooms on the ground floor, and a family bathroom with a shower over the bath.
Upstairs, you’ll find two twin bedrooms, one of which benefits from an en-suite shower room. The cosy living room invites you to unwind in front of the wood-burning stove, with a Smart TV for evening entertainment. A well-equipped kitchen and a separate dining room provide all you need for enjoying home-cooked meals. Outside, the enclosed garden with outdoor furniture is the perfect spot for a morning coffee or summer evening drink. And with a welcoming village pub just a stone’s throw away, you’re never far from a warm Yorkshire welcome.
The surrounding area is packed with things to see and do. Masham, just a short drive away, is famous for its quaint market square, local breweries including Theakston and Black Sheep, and regular markets. Ripon and Bedale, two traditional market towns, offer further opportunities for shopping, dining, and discovering local history. For walkers and outdoor enthusiasts, the Yorkshire Dales National Park is within easy reach, offering spectacular walking routes such as Hackfall Woods, Jervaulx Abbey, or The Druids Temple near Ilton – a fascinating and mysterious folly.
Nearby Leyburn, Middleham with its historic castle, and Pateley Bridge offer plenty of options for day trips. Wildlife lovers will enjoy a visit to the Himalayan Garden & Sculpture Park or Thorp Perrow Arboretum, both close by. Whether you’re exploring heather-clad moors, enjoying picturesque village walks, or sampling local produce in traditional pubs and cafés, Foxes Retreat is the perfect base for discovering the heart of North Yorkshire.
