Elmfield House

This has been one of the most wonderful stays we have had. Went for our anniversary. Sadly didn’t have a long enough stay to fully benefit. Kirsty knowledge of the area is amazingz Breakfast spot on. Wonderful family run, homely and comfortable environment. Shared lots of cricket knowledge with my cricket mad husband.

The accommodation was so welcoming, with great views and places to walk. The hosts were super friendly, happy to offer any advise we wanted, giving us great ideas on where to visit. Breakfasts were amazing and kept us going most of the day. It is a must for anyone wanting to go to the Dales.

My wife and I stayed in Elmfield lodge which is the self contained 1 bedroom cottage attached to the main farm house. We had our 4month old baby with us. This is a stunning place. The location is ideal for exploring the dales with Bedale, Richmond, Hawes, Leyburn and many more a short drive away. There are lovely walks right from the doorstep also. There is a lovely lake set in their own woodland. Beautiful. The host Kirsty is absolutely lovely and couldn’t have been more welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. We even got to see some of the Wensleydale lambs up close with Kirsty. The cottage itself is lovely and cosy. It’s extremely well equipped with everything you could possibly need and was spotlessly clean. The bed was super comfortable and the views over the grazing fields were to die for. We will be back time and time again. 100%.

It started with a lovely e-mail from our hosts before arrival, giving us advice and recommendations for the area. It continued on the day of arrival with a lively welcoming chat and a cup of coffee or tea and a slice of cake. Comfortable and clean room and a lovely breakfast is there to round off the experience. I’m short if you need to stay in the area I couldn’t recommend enough. Wonderful

Good location with easy access to the A1. Warm welcome and friendly host. Tea and cake on arrival was a nice touch. Comfy room and good breakfast. Would happily recommend.

We have had a most enjoyable couple of days away in North Yorkshire. If you are looking for a covid safe place to stay I would recommend Elmfield House in Arrathorne. Our host Kirsty was very welcoming. She wore a mask throughout our stay and even used a cloth to pick up the TV remote to show us how it worked so we felt very safe. Our breakfast was delicious with local produce and home made jam with fruits from the garden. An unexpected highlight for me was the wool, hand dyed from her own rare breed sheep. Can't wait to start knitting with it. We stayed in Field room which had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

This is such a lovely place to stay for a couple of nights away from it all. Off the beaten track but within easy reach of so many beautiful, little, North Yorkshire towns. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable with everything you needed - handwash, shower gel, hairdryer etc. Tea and coffee making facilities in the room with a mini, communal fridge on the landing with fresh milk and chilled water available (gel and wipes to sanitize after use) What really made it so wonderful was Kirsty with her cheerful, welcoming greetings, cake on arrival with a pot of Yorkshire tea, beatifully cooked breakfasts and recommendations for places to visit and eat. Nothing was too much trouble and she goes above and beyond to make sure you have a fantastic holiday. We absolutely loved it here and will book again in future.
