About this property
We still have availability for booking late November and early December 2025
Central location,lovely wild life,,great unspoilt views, excellent reviews with many repeat guests,and very comfy beds. An electric car charger is available. We have always taken great pride in the cleanliness of the Barn,which is away from all neighbours and surrounded by farmland so easy to socially distance as required.Due to the Corona Virus we have further enhanced our cleaning procedures.
Fig Tree Barn is an extensively renovated property thoughtfully converted to the highest standards. It is detached and whilst located adjacent to our home, Lund House, it retains full privacy.Visitors now have their own private outside spaces.The door in the dining/lounge area of the barn leads onto a large and stunning roof terrace overlooking the orchard.Here you can sip your favourite tipple,relaxing on comfy rattan chairs with cushions and stools or watch the sun rising whilst you breakfast around the table or the sun setting in the evening. The barn overlooks an apple tree orchard with far reaching views towards the pretty village of Hunsingore, which is located by the River Nidd. There is a picnic bench for sitting on in a secluded, peaceful and sunny corner of the orchard.Many of our guests have commented on the wildlife they have seen from the lounge area including owls,hares,pheasants,hedgehogs, and deer .There is also a bird feeder which attracts many feathered visitors including woodpeckers,wrens,sparrows and bluetits..Outside the barn entrance, there is an ornamental pond with fountain and Koi carp and 2 fig trees growing up the wall, hence the name. We have recently welcomed some lovely Dutch (zwaltbles)rare breed sheep into our back field.They are very friendly and enjoy being stroked and you can watch them from the lounge windows.Have a look at our photos of them. There is ample and secure off road parking and a locked bike shed. From the attractive, glazed front entrance, an oak staircase leads up to the first floor accommodation, comprising a gallery landing, open plan lounge/dining area(with table and chairs) with oak floors and wood burning stove and fully fitted modern kitchen with breakfast bar and stools..There are 2 bedrooms, one double with fitted oak wardrobe and one with twin beds.There are 2 bathrooms, one en-suite and one with bath and overhead shower. The property is very light and airy thanks to its many windows and high ceilings.

About the host
Hosted by Suzanne Margiotta
We are a recently retired married couple called Frank and Suzanne.We both had busy careers.Suzanne worked in Human Resource management and Frank ran a flooring and carpeting company.
However we wanted to keep active and started our barn conversion a year or so ago,managing the project ourselves and doing much of the work.
We were keen to have it as a holiday let and know we will enjoy meeting our guests and sharing with them our passion for the area and information on all the beautiful parts of Yorkshire to explore
We have spent much time and money to make the property into accommodation that we ourselves would love to stay in.We love the countryside and enjoy living in a rural location with no near neighbours but close to some friendly village communities.
Although the majority of our bookings are for 1 or 2 weeks,we can offer a minimum of 4 nights particularly during bank holidays,also low and mid seasons. If you are interested please contact us via an enquiry email and we will send you a quote and further information.

Why they chose this property
We had always wanted a property with land for keeping horses and other pets. Lund House has 3 acres with lovely farmland views and no close neighbours. However it is not remote as we are close to main roads and Wetherby,York and Harrogate are all an easy drive away.
We love the North Yorkshire countryside and Suzanne does regular walks with the Harrogate ramblers,rides a friend's horse and Frank enjoys his golf at Aldwark manor.From our home it is easy to visit so many places and we often also enjoy a day trip out to the coast(with fish and chips of course), the Dales and the North York moors.
Hunsingore village is a friendly and thriving community with regular events in the village hall and church and the local Bridge Inn is great for good meals and beverages.

What makes this property unique
There is plenty of secure parking within our grounds and a lock up shed for bikes if required.Whilst the barn is located in our grounds it is detached with its own entrance and far enough away to enjoy complete privacy.
Guests can walk a short distance (approx 5 minutes) to the Bridge Inn for meals or can walk into Hunsingore village along a footpath to explore the river Nidd and several rights of way.
The other member of our family is a chocolate labrador called Chino who is very friendly but has his own enclosed garden space to run around in.We also have lots of colourful koi carp fish in the pond who are also very friendly and enjoy eating from your hands.
