The place

The Terrace Barn is a wonderful spot from which to explore the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, with the Moors just a stones throw away - settle down in its beautiful landscape. Surrounded by patchwork fields, your place is backed by a patio area, looking out on the countryside with woodland in the far distance. You’ll find yourself out here for breakfast al fresco, or out using the BBQ at lunchtime for some grilled treats. Inside, you’ll find the place as outfitted and comfortable as your own home, making it easy to lie back and concentrate on relaxing. With so many walks straight from the front door, as well as a choice of enclosed gardens to frolic in, your dog is totally spoilt for choice and will love ending the day beside you on their dog blanket on the sofa. Your highlight will likely be a tall drink in the bath, and you can both stretch out by the wood burner as night closes in.

You should know

The owners have a 12-year-old chocolate Labrador called Ruby, who’d love to meet you and might be there on arrival
No dogs on the bed, only on the sofa if using the dog blanket provided
There is a secondary space which guests can use, which is at the potting shed in the vegetable garden. This space is made available if guests want to sit in the sun for lunch, as the terrace gets the sun in the afternoon and evening.

Anyone for a walk? Well, you’re in luck, there are some fantastic ones nearby. The Ripon Rowel Walk, which starts directly outside the barn is a 50-mile circular walk around Ripon. There’s also Hack Fall just 15 minutes away, which is a steep woodland walk with Georgian Follies dotted along the way – along the river Ure
If the dog’s a keen history buff (signs include panting, and woofing), then you might like to go out to the Druid Temple on The Swinton Estate, just twenty minutes away. A recreation of a prehistoric monument, it was commissioned by a landowner to alleviate local unemployment. There are great walks in the area, views to Leighton Reservoir and even a dog-friendly café
Lots of people would go to the Himalayas if they could, but it is… awfully far. And high up. One good alternative (without the uphill struggle) is the Himalayan Garden & Sculpture Park at Grewelthorpe – just 15 minutes away. Wander through the rhododendron woodland full of amazing sculptures. Well-behaved dogs are allowed outside on lead, but not in the Tea Rooms
An abbey or two should always be on the cards. Often with gorgeous gardens, and a peaceful atmosphere, they make for lovely strolls. There’s the Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal World Heritage Site, which has the impressive ruins themselves, as well as the Royal Water Garden and Royal Deer Park. There’s also the Jervaulx Abbey, which is a stunning wander. Both are around 20 minutes to get to (though in opposite directions) and are great spots to bring the dog on a lead
If you’re in the mood for the great outdoors then you’ll love heading out to either, The Brimham Rocks, which as weird and wonderful collection of rock formations out on the Nidderdale AONB – great for a longer walk with the dog. Or the Aysgarth Falls in the Yorkshire Dales National Park – where there’s an incredible triple fall of waterfalls in the woodland
After all these days out, you’ll be eyeing up menus wherever you can, but if you get the chance, take a wander out to The Bruce Arms. They have a stunning menu of beautifully presented food and regularly host events and it's just down the road. There’s also The One Eyed Rat in Ripon, where you can get comfy by the log fire, or out in the garden with an ever changing menu of local beers.
