Elmfield house was originally a gamekeeper's cottage attached to the Duke of Leeds' estate in the heart of Wensleydale.

Since then it has grown significantly from a small cottage to a modern country guesthouse with four double rooms, each with en suite facilities.

The property offers fantastic views over the Dale towards Middleham and Leyburn in the west and the North Yorkshire Moors in the east. The calm surroundings combined with comfortable beds, plenty of fresh air and good company all make for a relaxing holiday break.  It is very peaceful here and many of our guests comment on just how well they have slept.

After a good night's sleep you can look forward to a hearty Yorkshire breakfast made from the best local produce available. Elmfield House also has lovely gardens and many of our guests enjoy a walk down to a fully-stocked fishing lake, enjoying the wildlife from local roe deer to darting kingfishers.  Fishing is available to guests - please ask for further information.

We can arrange for an evening meal from our well-stocked farmhouse kitchen but you do need to let us know ahead of time if you would like a meal.  If you want to try some of the excellent restaurants and pubs in the area then we are happy to talk through your options and make a booking for you.
