Peaceful Breaks Away In January 2011

Peace and tranquility will be the order of the day after the hustle and bustle of the festive season, so why not get away from it all this January with a break in the quiet, rural North York Moors.

Enjoy strolls through the beautiful countryside surrounding our cottages and watch the sheep with their new born lambs, then head back to your cosy, comfortable cottage where you can put your feet up and enjoy the warmth of the fire and read the paper or a good book. One of our staff is in a book club and she can recommend a few good books:

Chickens, Mules and Two Old Fools by Victoria Twead
The Red Tent by Anita Diamante
The Other Hand by Chris Cleve
Guernica by Dave Boling
The Island by Victoria Hislop
My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult
Friends Like These by Danny Wallace

Valley View Farm Cottages are 4 star holiday cottages with one, two or three bedrooms, located on the family run farm, in the peaceful and picturesque village of Old Byland, near Helmsley, North Yorkshire. There are six stonebuilt holiday cottages which have been converted from barns.

Hi!
What a lovely part of the country you live in! I can't think of a better relaxing holiday break than staying in one of those farm cottages and strolling round the glorious countryside.

Thank you so much for mentioning and recommending 'Chickens, Mules and Two Old Fools'.

Hi Victoria,
Glad you like the look of North Yorkshire, yes I am very lucky to live here in the North York Moors with such stunning scenery.
Sara, who works for me, mentioned your book which she recommended so highly that I thought I would mention it on my blog.
Thanks for your comment.
Kind regards
Sally
