A cosy cottage made for the two of you, close to Leyburn and the Yorkshire Dales. The perfect add-on for guests staying at Sun Hill Farm or for couples looking for a romantic retreat in this country bolthole where you can venture into Wensleydale and immerse yourselves in the area, before returning to a roaring fire and watching the racehorses train in the fields.

Leyburn is the closest town, 4 miles from this Yorkshire Dales holiday cottage. The market square offers a range of everyday shopping, furniture, gift shops, inns, and tearooms. Try delicious artisan chocolates from Inspired Chocolate or browse the sales at the well-regarded Tennant’s auction house. The Sandpiper Inn has a dog-friendly bar, and on Friday’s do make sure to visit Leyburn’s weekly market full of local produce. When stocking up for food, head to the award-winning Campbell’s of Leyburn; family-run since 1868, it is a supermarket and wine retailer. The village of Constable Burton sits a mile below Sun Hill. For eating out, The Wyvill Arms has a warm welcoming bar and a restaurant. In the area, we also recommend The Saddle Room restaurant at The Forbidden Corner and the delicious award-winning seafood menu at The Wensleydale Heifer. For light afternoon activities, swing over to the driving range at nearby Akebar or wander around the stunning Jervaulx Abbey followed by delicious ice cream at Brymor. Scenic and more challenging walking routes weave across the countryside and market towns. There are some lovely routes around the well-known historical racing town of Middleham, 3 miles away. Middleham Gallops are fun to visit, and horse racing enthusiasts can even book guided stable tours of the Sun Hill racing yard and get to know the horses. Cycling is a popular activity in the area – for amateurs and enthusiasts alike. Tried and tested routes and bike hire are all available around Leyburn. Hawes, Bedale, Richmond, and Harrogate are all within an easy drive of Sun Hill Farm. Our Journal has guides for each, and there’s something to enjoy for all ages. With the Yorkshire Dales at your doorstep, there is plenty to explore in the area, if you can pull yourself away from a relaxing break at The Palins.
