The Roost Retreat - Self-Catering Accommodation in Leeming Bar, North Yorkshire
The Roost Retreat is a comfortable, quiet and quirky small holiday hideaway located on the Gateway to the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. Our characteristic little bolthole is a wonderful eco- conversion of a former Orangery and was beautifully restored in 2018, retaining the original beams, into cosy and unique self-catering accommodation.
The Roost also benefits from its own separate kitchenette and a private outside patio area with chairs, table, barbeque and fire pit, exclusive to guests. We have ample off-road private, level and secure parking, a large enclosed front garden and complimentary Wi-Fi.
Sleeping up to two guests, we are the perfect holiday bolthole for couples, solo travellers, business guests and contractors working in the area. Up to two small dogs or one medium dog very welcome.
Location
The Roost Retreat is situated in the village of Leeming Bar, just off the A684 road between Bedale and Northallerton. It is on the Gateway to the Yorkshire Dales (Lower Wensleydale), also known as Herriot Country where the 1970’s TV programme “All Creatures Great and Small” was filmed. Our location is perfect for visiting the many diverse range of attractions, gardens, historic houses, and lovely walks with your dog that North Yorkshire has to offer. We are surrounded by several lovely market towns with independent shops (many are dog friendly) and businesses within a short drive including Bedale, Northallerton, Masham, Leyburn, Richmond and the beautiful cathedral city of Ripon.
Reviews
“We had the pleasure of staying with Claire and Simon at their B&B in Northumberland a few years ago and were initially sorry to hear about their move to North Yorkshire but then keen to stay at their new self-catering accommodation when we heard that it is dog-friendly. We had a four-night stay last weekend and, aside from torrential rain on the Saturday, had a great stay. The bedroom is very comfortable, the bathroom is a good size, and the separate kitchenette is very useful to have for basic food preparation and eating. Claire welcomed us to the property and showed us around. It's immediately evident that there is great attention to details. There were useful basics (milk, bread, eggs) and tasty extras (artisan cookies, home-made greengage jam and Seville orange marmalade) for us and dog biscuits, towels, blankets and bedding for our pooch. The secure garden is a massive bonus for people with a dog and he much enjoyed roaming around it and making friends with people passing by the gate. The property is only a five minute walk from the Leeming Bar terminus of the Wensleydale Heritage Railway and we had a lovely day in Leyburn and Bedale via the train, and there are lots of interesting places to visit within an hour's drive. We particularly recommend Hearts of Ampleforth for breakfast/brunch/coffee if you visit the North York Moors National Park, Rievaulx Abbey, etc.”
