The Stable Block in Masham 3brm sleeps 2 - 6 guests
Charming 3-bedroom cottage in the heart of Masham, North Yorkshire, gateway to the Yorkshire Dales National Park—perfect for couples, families, and small groups seeking a relaxing countryside escape.
The Stable Block is a beautifully converted 18th-century building offering character, comfort, and modern amenities, just a short walk from Masham’s market square, traditional pubs, tearooms, independent shops, and the renowned Black Sheep and Theakston breweries.
This stylish Yorkshire Dales holiday cottage sleeps up to 5 (6 at a pinch) guests and is ideal for walking holidays, cycling breaks, and pet-friendly getaways (dogs welcome on request). The property blends original features with contemporary living, including a cosy lounge with flat-screen TV and SKY, a fully equipped kitchen and dining area, and French doors opening onto a private walled courtyard garden (shared) with outdoor seating and charcoal BBQ—perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the Dales.
A key feature of the Stable Block is the ground-floor double bedroom with en-suite and direct garden access, making it suitable for guests with limited mobility, although please note the property is not fully wheelchair accessible. Upstairs, there is a comfortable king-size bedroom and a single room that can become a small twin on request (or we can provide a port a cot for an infant), along with an additional shower room, providing flexible accommodation for families and friends.
Located in one of North Yorkshire’s favourite market towns, Masham offers a bi-weekly market on Wednesdays and Saturdays (and bank holidays), excellent local food, and easy access to top attractions including Fountains Abbey, Jervaulx Abbey, and scenic countryside walks right from the doorstep. The Stable Block also benefits from access to a shared enclosed garden area and can be booked alongside Morton House to accommodate up to 14 guests in total—ideal for larger family gatherings or group holidays.
With its central location, pet-friendly options, and proximity to Yorkshire's best walking routes, cycling trails, and attractions, the Stable Block is the perfect Masham holiday cottage for a cosy, character-filled UK countryside break.

Short family break
The property was perfect for us, with open plan living and a bedroom and bathroom downstairs for my elderly mother.We loved having the garden to sit out in an evening.
