Escape To God's Own Country - Yorkshire Wolds retreat Dale Farm Holidays is up For Sale
If you are a jaded city dweller dreaming of a new life, this stunning 18th century Yorkshire Wolds farmstead, close to Filey Bay, might be for you. Dale Farm offers the perfect opportunity for anyone seeking a beautiful home, profitable business, peace and fresh sea air, all set in a rural but accessible coastal location.
The 5 bedroomed farmhouse, attached 3 bedroomed cottage (currently a holiday let and which has also operated as a B&B and as a family home) and range of further holiday accommodation would also be ideally suited to multigenerational living. This is a successful established business sold as a going concern which could be further developed.
The business property comprises an extensive and varied collection of self-catering and glamping holiday accommodation sleeping up to 26 in total including cabins, treehouse, studios, apartment, grain store, cottage and summerhouse, all imaginatively converted from the original farm buildings. In addition there is a popular courtyard wedding venue with stunning bar ‘The Yorkshireman.’
The business has also facilitated yoga and mindfulness retreats and the large summerhouse, overlooking the kitchen garden, makes an ideal yoga studio. Also included is a huge array of ancillary accommodation and outbuildings including an original stable block.
The property is set in 3 acres of gardens including pond, small meadow, woodland, formal garden and large well-established kitchen garden with fruit cage, large enough to allow self-sufficiency in fruit and vegetables for the family as well as opportunities to keep hens and other livestock. Other eco-credentials include a biomass boiler which is registered with the government’s Renewable Heat Incentive scheme.
Situated at the northern end of the Yorkshire Wolds near the coast and close to the North York Moors national park, the property is ideally situated for those interested in walking, cycling and sea swimming or sailing. Beautiful York and the Yorkshire market towns of Beverly and Malton are all easily accessible.
The current owners say,
‘This is an outstanding home and business for anyone looking for a great lifestyle in the countryside yet close to all amenities. We are retiring now but can’t overstate how much we will miss the peace and beauty of this place, hosting our guests and some wonderful family gatherings.’
