Hygge moments abound on the North York Moors and Coast National Park
HYGGE – Some languages have words for which there is no single, or direct, translation. In Danish, hygge (pronounced “HUE-gah”) is one such word.
Though there are many ways to describe hygge, we see it simply as the Danish ritual of enjoying life’s simple pleasures. Friends. Family. Graciousness. Contentment. Good feelings. A warm glow. Certainly, hygge is intrinsic to the Danish lifestyle, but this feeling of well-being, so deeply satisfying and cozy, is something we all experience, each in our own way.
Here at Crag House Farm find your hygge moments both inside these beautiful Eco Award Winning Barns and outside in the splendour of the surrounding National Park.
