Sproxton Hall, Helmsley

Farmhouse Bed and Breakfast Accommodation on the edge of the North York Moors - a friendly welcome off the beaten track

Sproxton Hall is situated in a magnificent elevated position overlooking the Howardian Hills on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, with truly panoramic views over open countryside, wooded valleys, crop-laden fields and grazing livestock. There can be little to match the sight of the dawn mist as it clings to the valley floors and the evening sun as it sets behind the hills.

The Hall stands in total peace and seclusion at the end of the cul-de-sac hamlet of Sproxton - yet only one and a half miles from the bustling market town of Helmsley. Sproxton Hall is a 300 acre family-run working farm devoted to sheep, cattle, pigs and arable crops of wheat & barley, oilseed rape, silage and hay. Guests are welcome to take an interest in any aspect of farming throughout the seasons.

Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere, magnificent views and comfort as a guest at Sproxton Hall, a Grade 2 Listed Building. This seventeenth century beamed farmhouse has been lovingly and tastefully furnished and decorated in a traditional way giving the warm and cosy elegance of a country home. There is full central heating throughout.

As a non-smoking household it would be appreciated if guests did not smoke in the house.

The farmhouse has an extremely tranquil and elegant guests drawing-room with deep chintz sofa and chairs to relax in, and an attractive dining-room where guests enjoy a full hearty English breakfast. There are also many interesting inns in the area where Yorkshire hospitality and evening meals may be enjoyed.

Bedrooms are most welcoming and decorated in co-ordinating Sanderson or Laura Ashley prints. Double rooms have half-tester or coronet drapes over bed. Facilities include vanity units, razor points, remote control colour TV and tray for hot drinks.

Featured in Alastair Sawday's 'Special Places to Stay', Sproxton Hall is well located for visiting York, the open spaces, delightful villages, and historic sights of the North York Moors and 'Heartbeat Country', and the charming old ports and fishing villages of the East Coast.
