Stayed 4 times at Westfield Stables. And would stay again . The house is warm and cosy. Spotlessly clean. With superb comfortable beds. Perfect for visiting Harrogate or York. Or the beautiful countryside around.

Beautiful holiday accommodation in a great area for visiting Knaresborough, Harrogate, York and further afield. Warm welcome from the owner, who lives on site. Characterful barn conversion, with large secure area for our dog. Very modern interior, with top quality furniture, fixtures and fittings. Everything that we needed for our four night stay. Would highly recommend and would not hesitate to stay again when we return to this area.
