Away from the hustle and bustle of urban life, the magnificent Hill Top Farm is situated right in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, close to the attractive Wensleydale village of Askrigg. Home of the original All Creatures Great and Small television series, Askrigg is well-served with a brewery, tea room and bakery, craft shop, not to mention three pubs all serving homemade Yorkshire fare, making this the perfect hideaway to celebrate a special occasion with a large family or group of friends.

Providing accommodation for 22 guests in 11 delightful bedrooms across three floors and further converted farm buildings across the driveway, Hill Top Farm has been lovingly restored by its owners for everyone to enjoy the breath-taking, uninterrupted panoramic views surrounding the farm. Endless features set the scene including a pool table; bar area with jukebox; the Great Hall with an imposing large wood burning stove set within an impressive Yorkshire stone fireplace; library; gym; games room and finally a cinema room. There truly is something for everyone to enjoy. The well-equipped farmhouse breakfast kitchen with a large Aga and Belfast sink leads through to the breakfast dining area with seating for six guests, perfect for the little ones; and the south facing dining room has an adjoining sitting room for after dinner drinks around the open fire. The impressive Great Hall and pool room will keep you all entertained into the evening; or escape to the small sitting room that leads to the west wing for a night cap.

To the rear of the farm is a large parking area leading to the main entrance, with herb garden and seating area with chiminea.

Owner Photo

We have lovingly restored and refurbished Hill Top Farm over the years and uniquely designed it to give it a modern feel on a country retreat, transforming it into something truly special for all to enjoy whether it be in the cinema room with the children or playing a game of pool with friends. We hope our guests are able to relax with a glass of wine and take in the stunning views from the beautiful herb garden or snuggle up on the sofa with family and friends in front of the wood burner.

We really do wish you a wonderful stay at our glorious Hill Top Farm in the heart of Wensleydale.

Trish, Owner of Hill Top Farm, Askrigg
