Excellent accommodation, very spacious, plenty of comfortable sofas, super beds, well equipped kitchen fantastic views. We had a truly lovely time. There are attractions nearby and seeing the horses was a treat. The gardens were super for my dog to run around and for sitting out.

It is tempting to not tell anyone how wonderful our stay at Paddock House was! We were welcomed by the gardener on arrival who made us feel incredibly welcome. We’d done our research and yet the property delivered far more than we could’ve hoped for. It was spacious, luxurious and homely all at the same time. The luxury of large bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and three toilets! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we could possibly want and easy to use. The garden was perfect for relaxing in and for the dog to run around in, all safe and secure and with stunning views of the local countryside. Middleham was perfect for a family break on the edge of the beautiful Yorkshire Dales with its castles and gorgeous riverside walks a short distance away. We’d particularly recommend the Dante Arms and Middleham Fish Bar! Trips to the Forbidden Corner, Bolton Castle, Aysgarth Falls and Thorp Perrow Arboretum were just a few of the local attractions well worth visiting. 10/10
