Situated in the village of Leeming Bar, The Roost Retreat is a charming and secluded holiday annexe that blends rustic character with a warm, cosy atmosphere. Set on the edge of the stunning Yorkshire Dales, it provides a peaceful escape while remaining conveniently close to the market towns of Bedale, Northallerton, Masham, Leyburn and Richmond, making it an ideal base for exploring the surrounding countryside and attractions.

Set back from the road, this peaceful and inviting holiday retreat is thoughtfully arranged across two separate yet connected spaces, each full of charm and character. The main living area, once an orangery, still features its original wooden beam and is decorated with subtle poultry-themed touches that reflect its heritage as part of a working farm. Through elegant French-style doors, the main accommodation reveals a luxurious king-size four-poster bed accompanied by comfortable seating, creating a relaxing space to unwind. An en-suite shower room includes a spacious cubicle with a rain shower, while a compact but well-equipped Butler’s Kitchen allows guests to enjoy drinks and light refreshments at any time, with a selection of teas and treats provided. The retreat is fully double glazed and benefits from blackout curtains for added comfort, while offering pleasant views over the well-stocked front garden and the parkland beyond. Guests can also enjoy a private outdoor patio with seating, a parasol, barbecue and their own side entrance, with a fire pit available on request.

Northallerton and the surrounding North Yorkshire area offer a rich blend of history, countryside and traditional market town charm, making it an excellent base for exploring the region. Within the town, visitors can enjoy the bustling High Street, regular markets and landmarks such as Mount Grace Priory, a well-preserved medieval monastery set within peaceful gardens and All Saints Parish Church. Just a short drive away, the village of Osmotherley provides access to scenic walking routes including the Cleveland Way, while nearby Cod Beck Reservoir is ideal for quiet walks with far-reaching views. The location also places visitors within easy reach of both the Yorkshire Dales National Park and the North York Moors National Park, offering dramatic landscapes, outdoor activities and picturesque villages. Additional nearby attractions such as The World of James Herriot and The Forbidden Corner provide a mix of cultural interest and unique experiences for all ages.
