A Christmas Story


Santa comes to Crag House Farm
Christmas at Crag House Farm in the North York Moors National Park is an amazing experience. The barns look absolutely stunning dressed with fresh 13ft Christmas trees that we have selected from the forests at Duncombe Park Estate in Helmsley, this is one of Liz’s favourite jobs of the year!

With the fabulous cosy underfloor heating keeping toes snug and warm imagine you and your loved ones enjoying mince pies and sherry and a chocolate or two as you pop another log on the fire. Old fashioned board games come into their own at this time of year and we have a jolly good selection for you to enjoy.

Don your scarves and boots and wrap up warm, take a bracing walk straight from your doorstep where beautiful Danby Dale stretches out before you. Circular walks to the local village pubs with their log fires burning and Yorkshire bon homie is at it’s best.

Whether you’re striding the moors or walking along a windswept beach, one fact you should know The North York Moors is actually the driest upland in Britain.

We sometimes get snow but we have that covered too with sledges ready for you.
