The Experience

Journey through Yorkshire’s finest scenery, then drop down into the cobbled yard where this refined Victorian farmhouse sits on the side of a secluded valley – the views are fabulous. Come together for family suppers in the large kitchen, stoke up the fire when the weather isn’t playing, sleep in cosy, view-filled bedrooms with sleigh beds, original art and more of those views.

Fish on the river at the bottom of the fields and spot deer or perhaps an otter if you’re patient. Across the fields you’ll find a vaulted barn with a heated indoor pool, sauna and jacuzzi. There’s a gym too with table tennis and table football plus your own tennis court and football pitch. This is fabulous walking and cycling country – the whole of the Yorkshire Dales are yours to discover.

Take the scenic road to the market town of Richmond or further into Swaledale – there’s a reassuring timelessness to it all. Julia can also arrange yoga, therapy treatments, bike hire and art workshops.

Reviews

The Old Vicarage nestles in a stunning Swaledale valley, the views really are breathtaking. I felt immediately at peace on entering the house, with its spacious interior and soft furnishings in earthy tones. The house is spotlessly clean and very well equipped - there's even baking equipment.

It was so so so good

The Old Vicarage has been part of our family history for 70years, it has been wonderful to be able to stay here once again and reminisce about all the wonderful times we have had in this beautiful house. Julia has made the house feel like home from home, everything you need for your stay Julia has it covered, having the added bonus of the amazing facilities, is just wonderful. Thank you for yet again another wonderful stay helping us create more great memories from this beautiful place.

Amazing house. Fantastic facilities. Beautiful location. You'll find few nicer places to stay. The kids loved the Highland cows and the swimming pool. The only thing I'd change was the very late check in and early checkout but I think this was a COVID safety measure.

Alex, London

Lovely, comfortable house in a beautiful, isolated setting in the Swaledale valley overlooking the River Swale and surrounded by fields. The house is reached down a very bumpy, stony track (about 750 metres), so you really are in quite a remote location - your only neighbours will be sheep and cattle. The 'leisure facilities' are a 5-10 minute walk away across some fields but they are worth the walk. The lovely warm and large indoor swimming pool was a particular treat. The host is very attentive and was clearly taking the coronavirus-driven need to clean and distance very seriously.

Location

The neighbourhood

Follow the farm track through the fields – you’re tucked away, far from prying eyes and town hustle. Swaledale is God’s Own County at its most resplendent – the northernmost of the Yorkshire Dales with wild moors, waterfalls and meadows to cross on country walks. There are no shops in nearby Marrick, but you’re only five miles from Richmond with plenty of shops, pubs, restaurants, tea rooms and markets.

Local points of interest from Julia Carr

  • Wildlife is all around The Old Vicarage from the curlews and golden plovers in the meadows to the badger and deer making their way to and from the nearby river.
  • If you like culture then a trip to the Georgian Theatre Royal in nearby Richmond is a must. Built in 1788, it is Britain's most complete Georgian playhouse. Interesting daily guided 'behind-the-scenes' tours as well as varied live performances.
  • History buffs should visit nearby Bolton Castle - a spectacular medieval fortress completed in 1399. Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned here.
  • This part of Yorkshire is a cyclist's paradise and the Dales Bike Centre in the hamlet of Fremington (a mile or so away) hires mountain bikes and runs courses for beginners and enthusiasts alike. It also has a great cafe serving home-made food and cakes.
  • The Old Vicarage is surrounded by meadows and has its own private stretch of river - perfect for picnics or skimming stones.
  • Miles and miles of footpaths and country lanes with plenty of walks and cycle routes from the doorstep. Walk to the pretty village of Reeth via ancient Marrick Priory and discover the Nun's Wood on the way.

Introducing

Julia Carr

Julia lives just two small fields along the valley with her three sons – it’s unlikely you’ll need her but she’s on call all the time if you do. She’ll meet you at The Old Vicarage to show you around before leaving you to your stay. The Highland cattle you’ll see grazing nearby are hers. They are very friendly and she is happy to introduce you to them. This is often a big hit with children, particularly if there are any newly born calves.
