Whashton Springs Farmhouse B&B

This place is unreal a real old style farmhouse B & B, set in a stunning location which is so peaceful with rooms over looking the gardens with a large amount of wildlife. The whole place is spotless the rooms are comfortable big beds nice bathrooms and quality bedding and towels, Jane is a fantastic host and very kind and welcoming, the breakfast is for me the highlight real food cooked properly bacon and sausage of the best quality and eggs from their own chickens along with real fried bread was a thing not many places do any more but was fantastic. There is also a good selection of fresh fruit and plenty of tea, coffee and toast can’t wait to return

We had a wonderful 2 night stay on this working farm. Lovely comfortable Courtyard Room. Excellent breakfasts, cooked to order, including free range eggs from the chickens. Lovely friendly hosts. Great base for visiting Richmond, Raby Castle and High Force waterfall.

The visit was superb! The hosts were lovely - nothing was too much trouble and their son even helped to bump start our motorbike as the battery had drained! The setting and rooms are beautiful, idyllic and peaceful and the bed to die for! Breakfast was amazing and really sets you up for the day. The local town of Richmond has some wonderful bars and restaurants, particularly the Tapas. Lots of places to visit or walk to in the local area. I couldn’t recommend this place enough! Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Jane and Fergus the cat made us feel very welcome at this lovely farmhouse retreat. Perfect spot for walking in the Dales, and plenty of restaurants/ pubs in nearby Richmond to keep us fed and watered of an evening. Breakfast was delicious and cooked to order. They had no trouble providing gluten- free and dairy-free options for me at breakfast every morning. The room was spacious and very comfortable, and fantastic water pressure in the shower (a personal bugbear for me usually)! On a more prosaic note, there was plenty of guest parking overlooking the chickens and the drive was well signposted from the road, so super easy to find after a long drive up North. Whashton has definitely made it onto our list of preferred stopping off points when we travel this way in future.

This place is a little gem surrounded by open fields and fabulous scenery of the countryside. Jane the owner was the perfect host. Breakfast on both days was superb cooked using local supplies and delicious! I would highly recommend anyone to stay here….

A lovely overnight stay with a very comfy bed and lovely room. A good choice at breakfast too. A warm welcome from Jane and a special mention for Fergus the cat. This was a great find and the scenery is stunning.

We booked this accommodation based on the fabulous reviews and were not disappointed. We had a lovely welcome from Jane and were shown to our courtyard room where we were given the relevant information and left to do our quick turnaround to go into Richmond for dinner. Our room for 2 adults and a child was spacious and extremely comfortable. The place has obviously been carefully restored with guest comfort and pleasing aesthetics in mind whilst retaining the traditional farmhouse style. Breakfast was plentiful and freshly prepared and nothing was too much trouble for Jane and the lovely lady who was waiting on us (sorry we didn’t catch her name). And what a beautiful view from the breakfast room. We would not hesitate to recommend and will definitely visit again if in the area.

We had a lovely warm welcome from Jane, who met us as we arrived, and showed us to our beautiful comfortable courtyard room. If you are looking for a peaceful relaxing place to stay, yet only 3 miles from Richmond , this is it! The farmhouse itself felt homely and well loved, and delicious breakfasts were served in the dining room overlooking the garden, with many birds on the feeders, including a woodpecker and a nuthatch. Thank you Jane for a wonderful three night getaway, we would love to come back.

We had a wonderful 4 day break on this working farm. Comfortable en suite room in the courtyard. Excellent breakfast including free range eggs from the chickens seen in the field. Lovely friendly hostess and local staff. Close to the beautiful Swaledale and interesting castle town of Richmond and set in its own charming farmland with hares, owls and much more. Would definitely recommend. Lynn and Richard
