The Dovecote Barns offers you a taste of country living in the sumptuously furnished surroundings of converted historic barns near York, the centre of historic and cultural Yorkshire. Using renewable energy, you can enjoy year round luxury and comfort with no compromise to you or the environment.  A warm Yorkshire welcome is guaranteed.

 

There are three self-contained luxurious holiday self catering cottages (sleeping 2, 4, 6 adults)  devotedly restored and including hand-made country kitchens with granite worktops, all en-suite bedrooms with luxury John Lewis mattresses and individually designed contemporary bathrooms, log stoves and under-floor heating.  All offer the highest standard of attention to detail, comfort, fittings, furnishings, art and design.  Each barn has its own private garden area with barbeque for dining al fresco.

 

Relax in the open countryside or stroll through the medieval streets of one of England's most ancient cities.  Located ten minutes from the York Designer Outlet where a Park & Ride service operates into York city centre, or there is a public bus service from your doorstep into the city, with a late night service operating on the weekends.  If using the car, the barns are within easy reach of some of Yorkshire's best historic estates and attractions.

 

Awarded the prestigious Visit England's ‘Self-Catering Holiday of the Year 2011/2012’ and winners of the Visit York 2012 and 2010 Awards, The Dovecote Barns offer the perfect retreat for romantic couples, families, wedding parties, family reunions and groups getting together or celebrating a special occasion, wanting both peace and quiet as well as easy access to either York or Leeds.  A large group of 12 adults can dine together in The Hay Barn.

 

"For those wanting the luxury of a hotel, as well as the space for large groups to dine together, this is an ideal venue."

 

  We offer weekend short breaks and mid-week breaks all year round. 

Weekly stays commence on either a Monday or Friday.
