About This 5-Bedroom Group Longhouse

This 5-bedroom group longhouse is a large self-catering property in Coverdale, one of the quieter dales in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Sitting in the heart of North Yorkshire, this is a serious group booking the kind of place where everyone actually fits under one roof. The longhouse layout keeps the whole group together, which makes it ideal for family gatherings, milestone birthdays or friends' reunions.

Coverdale is a working farming valley. It's green, unhurried and genuinely off the beaten track. The River Cover runs through it and the surrounding fells give walkers something to get stuck into straight away.

The longhouse delivers genuine Yorkshire Dales space for groups who want countryside without compromise. Middleham's racehorse training yards and castle make it a brilliant base. Book this for groups who want real space.
