Take a look at this beautifully connected 8-bedroom holiday cottage with two hot tubs, two games rooms, and space for 16 guests. The house is new for 2026.

At Holiday at Home we have over 80 properties in our portfolio which we professionally manage and maintain.

The space
The Big Green Barn is our largest group property, formed by two adjoining luxury barn conversions, Wheatsheaf Barn and Field Cottage, linked via an interconnecting door. Sleeping up to 16 guests, this dog-friendly retreat features 8 bedrooms, 2 hot tubs, 2 games rooms and generous outdoor space, ideal for large families, celebrations and group getaways.

Set in a peaceful rural location between Ripon, Thirsk and Masham, the barn offers the perfect balance of countryside tranquillity and space to socialise.

Inside, both cottages offer bright open-plan living areas with Smart TVs and fully equipped kitchens, making catering for larger groups easy. Wheatsheaf Barn features a large sociable living space with patio doors opening onto the enclosed garden, while Field Cottage provides a second lounge and kitchen—ideal for spreading out or giving younger guests their own space.

Entertainment is covered with two games rooms, including a pool table, darts and table football, plus bar areas and drinks fridges for relaxed evenings in.

The property offers eight stylish bedrooms, all with Smart TVs. Seven super king-size beds can be configured as doubles or twins, with one fixed king-size bedroom. There is also a ground-floor en-suite bedroom, perfect for multi-generational stays.

Outside, enjoy two private jacuzzi-style hot tubs, enclosed gardens for children and dogs, countryside views, and a BBQ area for alfresco dining.

New for 2026: newly laid lawns with further landscaping and outdoor seating added in spring.
