OWNERS AND PETS WELCOME
Unbelievable, here's me thinking the other day that we would be using our new biomass heating system and I wake up to a lovely, sunny September day. I hope it will hold for our guests arriving this afternoon. We have five of our six fully furnished cottages occupied for a week or more and over half of them are bringing their dogs. Our cottages are dog friendly and there is the option of a kennel for dog/s when our visitors may wish to go out without them. Our staff are even happy to dog sit! We have had many types of animals staying with us over the years from cats, tortoises, parrots, ferrets and even birds of prey! Our cottages are open all year round for stays from 1 night to a few weeks or months in the winter. All are welcome! Should you wish to visit, with or without your pets, for a little or long time, please give me a call.

Warm and Cosy Cottages For Rent Thanks to our New Biomass Boiler
The temperature has definitely dropped this week on the North Yorkshire Moors. Luckily for us at Valley View Farm we are looking forward to a very warm winter thanks to our new Biomass Boiler. We had it installed earlier this year by a local firm and it all went very smoothly. It is giving me the opportunity to rent out my fully furnished HEATED cottages this winter for short or long term lets. Should you be interested please give me a call. I would welcome viewers.
