PARTRIDGE LODGE - A fabulous holiday home, sleeps 10, close to the Moors & Dales

Relax in an idyllic rural Yorkshire village between the Dales and the Moors

Perfect for families or friends, this impressive five-bedroom base combines high-spec interiors with lots of outdoor space

Six miles east of Partridge Lodge begin the North York Moors, full of heather-studded plateaux, woods and high sea cliffs. Venture ten miles west, meanwhile, and you'll already be in the Yorkshire Dales, where dry-stone walls dot gentler valleys. In other words, this is an extremely well-placed home.

You'll find it in the charming, riverside village of Newby Wiske, only a short hop from the A1(M) road yet wonderfully quiet. A beautiful, newly-developed home on the owners' family plot, Partridge Lodge works just as well for multi-generational families as large groups of friends.

Those owners have been meticulous in every detail of this delightful red-brick base. The design sees soothing shades - soft white walls, wooden furniture and eye-catching feature wallpaper - accentuate a homely element instilled by stylish gallery walls, squashy sofas, rich velvet cushions and bright patterned lampshades.

Its heart is an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space whose large, bi-fold doors allow the morning light to flood in. These lead to a flagstone terrace ready for al-fresco group dining on warm days. Perhaps you'll fire up the barbecue after a competitive croquet game on the lawn. Large, enclosed expanses of grass both to the property's rear and front also offer the chance to sit, sunbathe, read or practise yoga.

Looking for the kids? They'll probably be in Partridge Lodge's purpose-built, stand-alone games room. This comes furnished with pool and foosball tables, plus comfy seating for card or board games. Connecting onto the garden, it's a great, separate space for older children to use, away from those boring adults, or for groups of chums seeking some solitude.

Speaking of which, there are two delightful, adjacent sitting areas in order to satisfy all guests' fancy. Both have a trio of slumberous sofas. As popcorn-powered movie nights take place in one, off the dining area, quieter chats or group games might be unfolding amid the second room, heated by an electric fire if necessary.

The ground floor further features one twin room, ideal for any guests of limited mobility. Four more spacious bedrooms await just upstairs. That includes the massive master suite, whose en suite contains a large walk-in shower, plus the second bedroom, also en-suite, and its king-size bed. Another two sleeping quarters - a super-king double and a twin - share the family bathroom.

Both within half an hour's drive, the Dales and Moors offer a plethora of walking and cycling routes for all levels. Those include journeys to such famous landmarks as Aysgarth Falls, Malham Cove or Rievaulx Abbey. Harrogate, famous for its tea rooms and Victorian bath-house is within easy reach, as are numerous golf courses and Ripon's prestigious, year-round horse races.
