Accommodation Overview
Nestled in the heart of the charming market town of Helmsley, The Byre has been lovingly converted from a former cow shed into a beautiful and intimate retreat for two.
With a keen eye for interiors and thoughtful attention to detail, this stylish barn offers a spacious open-plan layout combining kitchen, living, and sleeping areas. A cosy log burner adds warmth and character, making it the perfect hideaway on colder winter days. Outside, guests can enjoy a private seating area with table and chairs, along with off-street parking for one car.
Dogs are welcome to join you, making The Byre an ideal countryside escape for couples and their four-legged friends.
Set entirely on one level, The Byre offers a thoughtfully designed open-plan layout with distinct yet connected areas for cooking, dining, relaxing, and sleeping. At its heart is a beautiful wood-burning stove, perfect for keeping warm on chilly evenings, while a comfy sofa and sumptuous furnishings create a luxurious, welcoming feel from the moment you step inside.
The spacious kitchen area is ideal for lingering over morning coffee while planning the day’s adventures, or chatting over pre-dinner drinks. It is well equipped with a cooker, hob, dishwasher, washing machine, and everything needed to prepare a hearty breakfast or a delicious supper.
The sleeping area features a comfortable double bed dressed with plush duvets and pillows, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. The bathroom is the only separate room and includes a bath with shower over, basin, and WC.
Outside, a charming patio area to the side of the property is furnished with garden seating—perfect for relaxing with a glass of fizz after a day exploring. Exposed beams throughout add character and reinforce the warm, country-cottage feel that makes The Byre so special.
Perfectly located just minutes from the centre of Helmsley, guests can enjoy renowned restaurants, excellent delicatessens, and quality independent shops. Set on the edge of Ryedale’s rolling countryside, Helmsley also offers an arts centre with live events and film programmes, five acres of beautiful walled gardens beside the castle ruins, and Duncombe Park—home to the International Centre of Birds of Prey.
The surrounding area is ideal for walking, touring, and a wide range of countryside pursuits, making The Byre a wonderful base for a relaxing North Yorkshire escape.
