The Stable Block in Masham 3brm sleeps 2 - 6 guests

Charming 3-bedroom cottage in the heart of Masham, North Yorkshire, gateway to the Yorkshire Dales National Park—perfect for couples, families, and small groups seeking a relaxing countryside escape.

The Stable Block is a beautifully converted 18th-century building offering character, comfort, and modern amenities, just a short walk from Masham’s market square, traditional pubs, tearooms, independent shops, and the renowned Black Sheep and Theakston breweries.

This stylish Yorkshire Dales holiday cottage sleeps up to 5 (6 at a pinch) guests and is ideal for walking holidays, cycling breaks, and pet-friendly getaways (dogs welcome on request). The property blends original features with contemporary living, including a cosy lounge with flat-screen TV and SKY, a fully equipped kitchen and dining area, and French doors opening onto a private walled courtyard garden (shared) with outdoor seating and charcoal BBQ—perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the Dales.

A key feature of the Stable Block is the ground-floor double bedroom with en-suite and direct garden access, making it suitable for guests with limited mobility, although please note the property is not fully wheelchair accessible. Upstairs, there is a comfortable king-size bedroom and a single room that can become a small twin on request (or we can provide a port a cot for an infant), along with an additional shower room, providing flexible accommodation for families and friends.

Located in one of North Yorkshire’s favourite market towns, Masham offers a bi-weekly market on Wednesdays and Saturdays (and bank holidays), excellent local food, and easy access to top attractions including Fountains Abbey, Jervaulx Abbey, and scenic countryside walks right from the doorstep. The Stable Block also benefits from access to a shared enclosed garden area and can be booked alongside Morton House to accommodate up to 14 guests in total—ideal for larger family gatherings or group holidays.

the Stable Block at Masham was a welcome surprise - a lovely quiet spot in a pretty little town. really felt like a home from home for the few nights I spent there. Well appointed and well equipped, with a nice outside area to sit in on the sunnier evenings.

Wonderful stay in Masham

The Stable Block in Masham is an ideal place to stay and explore this lovely village and the surrounding area. The house itself was clean, well equipped and the beds were extremely comfortable. The ground floor ensuite room is ideal for those who are less mobile. This was our third stay and would definitely recommend

Something for everyone

Enjoyed our stay here in the heart of Masham. The cottage is ideally placed, being a five minute walk to all the local shops, pubs, breweries, market square and church. Fabulous riverside walk from the road bridge to the wetlands nature reserve and back over the fields to the brewery!

Lovely place to stay

Absolutely beautiful place to stay, with a fantastic location, very close to the centre of Masham. When we arrived it was very clean and is bigger than it looks on photos. The only downside was that there was another group staying in the main house (Morton House) that were extremely noisy and kept us awake until the early hours of the morning (not ideal with a toddler who was also woken) but other than that we had a fabulous stay

Mid week stay at Masham

An excellent experience enjoyed by all 4 of us, clean and comfortable accommodation . The only niggle is the drafts coming through both sets of French doors. Other than that’s perfect break at a reasonable price.

You are right in the heart of Masham, a wonderful village with lots of wonderful country pubs and shops. Iits just the perfect place to stay. I will definitely be returning .

Lovely short break.

We have just had a 3 night stay in The Stable Block, we found the accommodation clean and tidy, well kitted out and with the underfloor heating, it was so cosy. Everything we needed was provided, there was also a very thoughtful welcome basket with some delicious items in. The property is situated just off the market square, so everything is very accessible. Another bonus is the on street parking and the extra spot adjacent to the cottage.

I was not expecting this !

I did not expect for the price I paid; such lovely accommodation. The property was lovely and warm. My bed was super comfy. It was located in the centre of the town, however it was peaceful inside. There are some lovely walks nearby. And the pubs are really friendly.

I only have positive thoughts about both the Stable Block and Masham. The accommodation is clean and well maintained and couldn’t be in a better position. Masham is beautiful and the locals friendly and welcoming. If I could give Six stars, I would.

Wonderful stay at Masham House Stable Cottages

Throughly enjoyed our stay at Masham Cottage (2 adults/1 toddler & 2 dogs). The Cottage itself was spacious and well kitted out with everything you need for your stay. Michelle and Columb were friendly and provided great customer service. Location was excellent with a variety of great iconic locations to visit and great dog walks, all within 30minutes of the Cottage. A testament to the accommodation is the fact that we would book again on our next trip to the Yorkshire Dales. Would also recommend to others.

Weekend away

Ideal accommodation for a short stay in Masham. Only a street back from the main market square with shops, cafes and pubs all within a 2-5 min walk away. Many places are dog friendly and plenty of walks from the town. Our stay was for 4 adults and 2 dogs which made our time in the stable block easy as there are 2 double bedrooms and 2 shower rooms along with an open plan kitchen/dining/lounge and an extra bedroom. The owners were exceptional in getting back to us immediately before we visited to answer questions around our stay and even when we got there early, a quick call to them allowed us to get into the property an hour early.
