Within distance of a hub of amenities and attractions, whilst a car journey away from the city of York, Bailey House offers a stylish base for a family of eight, providing access to an enclosed garden, sleek living spaces, and a shared outdoor swimming pool (only available from May - October) in the grounds of a working farm.

The small village of Middleton on the Wolds lies mid way between the thriving market towns of Market Weighton and Driffield. Old cottages line the main street and the village is overlooked by a 13th century church located on a hill above the community. The local pub now houses the village shop and caters for everyday necessities. Surrounded by the rolling countryside of the pretty Yorkshire Wolds, this village is centrally placed for easy access to the bustling market towns of Beverley, Pocklington and Driffield. Visit Market Weighton with its Victorian and Georgian streets and enjoy the amenities including local inns, tea rooms, individual shops and a weekly farmers’ market. Other attractions include Beverley Minster, Yorkshire Air Museum, Sledmere House and Skipsea castle. The historic City of York is an easy drive away and well worth a visit.

Pool and sauna lovely, though a little nippy for swimming in October. Host came to meet us and welcomed us to the area and showed us around the grounds. Pub across the road a great addition. Would highly recommend; great for families and friends just looking for a break. (Car needed to get around).

One of our family members was in a wheelchair and we knew the house wasn't listed as assemble but we make everything work. The owners couldn't do enough for us all. A very beautiful house with everything you'll ever need and wonderful owners near by if needed. We loved it and will definitely be back. Thank you so much

We wouldnât change a thing about the place. The house had every home comfort we needed for adults, kids and the dogs. Just a beautiful place to stay. The owners left us some lovely little touches such as a bottle of Prosecco, cookies and treats for the dogs! The enclosed garden was perfect for us to let them wonder as well as the luxury of having a little herb garden to pick some fresh produce and the swimming pool to ourselves. The owners were friendly and helpful, and I will definately be recommending the place to friends and family. The pub being 1 minute walk away was a good added bonus too!
