Old Fever Hospital with Harry Potter themed room
Description
A former isolation hospital, which has also been a rope mill and a dairy. It's a great place for a gathering with friends or family, close to Masham with lots of outdoor space and the nature reserve literally on the doorstep. The space The house is spacious and well equipped. It has been a major renovation project and has retained its quirks and character as well as gaining some warmth and comfort! We're not 100% there yet, and are delighted to be using Airbnb funds to keep going with improvements, so thank you for helping us get there! Guests so far have been very complimentary but please don't expect perfection!! It's an interesting and relaxing space to stay in, with the countryside on your doorstep, and Masham a short walk across fields (public footpath - 10/15 minute walk) or an even shorter drive (2/3 mins!) Guests enjoy the large kitchen, with old range cooker (sadly not working yet, but adds to the ambience). We're big cooking fans, so the kitchen is well equipped with most mod cons (big cooker, big fridge and freezer, wine fridge, KitchenAid mixer, bread maker, etc etc - let us know if you've got a specific cooking requirement in mind) There are five bedrooms, four of which are ensuite: 1. Big room, king sized bed, en suite bathroom with bath and shower (can add single z bed here if needed) 2. Double bed with a single high bunk. Morroccan/Bohemian style decor. This room is not ensuite. Again, room for further z bed in here if required. 3. King size bed. With ensuite shower room. 4. 'Harry Potter' room (see pics). Zip and link beds which can be king size or twin (please let us know which you'd prefer. You can sleep up to three in this room at a push.... Ensuite bathroom (bath with shower over) 5. Double, with pallet-wood feature wall. Ensuite bathroom (bath with shower over) Can fit further bed in this room if required although is a squeeze! The house is set in a garden of 1/3 of an acre. The pictures show the front, with seating near a brick built barbecue. The back of the house is a further garden area. It is overlooked from the big bifold doors in the kitchen and lounge. Woodpecker is a daily visitor to the bird food at the moment, and we've had deer visit right into the garden on a few occasions this year. Please note, there is an unfenced stream at the back of the back garden. (This is not suitable for paddling - a bit on the sludgy side and we would ask that you keep an eye on any children in the party...) Guest access Guests have access to the full house, apart from one room which we keep for storage. Other things to note The stairs are fabulous old railway sleepers, which means they look great but need to be treated with absolute care by smaller visitors, eg for under 5s you may feel the need to keep a close eye and not let them wander off on their own. We have had a lot of families stay, who don't seem to have struggled, and we brought our own kids up here from being tiny, so we are by no means saying don't bring kids, just be aware! Also, there is a stream at the back of the back garden which is unfenced (not suitable for paddling). We try to be as eco friendly as possible and leave 'Faith in Nature' products in reusable/already recycled bottles for your use. Please note: HOT TUB AVAILABLE AT ADDITIONAL CHARGE £250
