Old Post Office

Boroughbridge 5.3 miles. Old Post Office is tucked away in the pretty village of Helperby near Boroughbridge, and offers a charming base for families and their four‑legged friends. True to its name, this former post office has been beautifully transformed into a welcoming retreat, perfect for slowing down and enjoying the North Yorkshire countryside.

Step inside to find an inviting sitting room, an ideal spot to unwind with your favourite TV show after a day of exploring. The quaint yet well-equipped kitchen makes mealtimes a pleasure, with a dedicated dining room ready for relaxed suppers. Continue the evening outdoors with drinks on the patio, then slip into your swimwear and enjoy a soothing soak in the luxurious hot tub.

Upstairs, a bright, contemporary shower room awaits, complete with a heated towel rail, and three thoughtfully presented bedrooms, a super-king, a king-size, and a twin.

Begin your mornings with a gentle stroll into Boroughbridge, where you can discover The Devil’s Arrows or wander beside the picturesque River Ure. Pick up fresh ingredients from the town’s shops for an evening meal back at the cottage. Nearby, explore the fascinating Aldborough Roman Site or spend an afternoon at Newby Hall & Gardens in Skelton‑on‑Ure. Head further afield to York to admire the majestic Minster and the National Railway Museum, or venture to Harrogate for a leisurely afternoon tea.

For outdoor adventure, take in the dramatic landscapes around Brimham Rocks or climb up to How Hill Tower for sweeping countryside views. With both the North York Moors and Yorkshire Dales National Parks within easy reach, this lovely property is perfectly placed for memorable days out.

Savour precious time with loved ones and make wonderful memories at Old Post Office.
