About Valley View Farm
Our self-catering cottages are set on a working farm in the heart of North Yorkshire. We are a family run business and have been welcoming guests to our neck of the woods for over 20 years. The business started out with a B&B in the main farmhouse many years ago, before we acquired six old-style country cottages – and so began Valley View Farm Cottages!
The Humble Holt Cottage
Holt Cottage is our stunning 3 bedroomed cottage, ideal for larger families or groups of friends. The cottage sleeps 6 people but can be connected to the neighbouring Drey Cottage to cater for up to 10 people if required.
The comfortable sitting room boasts panoramic views of the farmland and countryside beyond, whilst the showstopping galleried kitchen / dining area contains everything you could possibly need to cook up a delicious dinner for six. The cottage features 3 luxurious bedrooms: one double and two twin. At the end of a long day exploring the sights and sounds of rural Yorkshire, snuggle down in the most sumptuous bedding and wake feeling truly refreshed. All bedrooms have fully equipped ensuite bathrooms, complete with bath, shower, toilet, and basin – allowing you to freshen up in comfort and style.
The Fantastic Form Cottage
Form Cottage is our romantic retreat for 2, with a handsome king-sized bedroom and a private raised patio area.
The fabulous sitting / dining room is flooded with natural light, boasting 360-degree views over the patio and countryside beyond from the large open aspect window. Kick back and relax on the most comfortable furniture, with the open light aspect. Head into the kitchen and rustle up a tasty meal for two, before retreating to the king-sized bedroom for a truly restful slumber.

Cook your family meal in the fully-equipped kitchen or step out into your own private patio area, boasting rustic outdoor seating and fantastic BBQ facilities – ideal for a spot of alfresco dining. With 1 double and 1 twin bedroom, there’s plenty of space for all the family to settle down in the most comfortable surroundings.
The Charming Couch Cottage
