The separate dining room seats 12. Guests in the past have used local companies to have that special meal cooked.

In season guests also have shared use of the 15m outdoor swimming pool, the grass tennis court and croquet lawn. The estate's extensive gardens and grounds are a delight, even in winter.

There is dedicated parking next to the front door.

The perfect base, conveniently situated just off the A59, 15 minutes from the A1, from where to explore all North Yorkshire has to offer, whether it's the medieval city of York just 8 miles away, (park and ride 10 minutes away), the spa town of Harrogate or the vibrant city of Leeds. If the countryside appeals, the North York Moors and the Yorkshire Dales National Park are nearby. Or simply stroll through the estate gardens exploring the small 17th century chapel as you go.

Well located for famous annual Yorkshire events like the Ebor Races, the Harrogate Flower Shows and the Great Yorkshire Show.

Whatever the season, it is a short walk from the front door to the River Ouse where public footpaths provide scenic walks. In the winter tuck up in front of the large log burner after a day out in York or Harrogate or exploring the countryside.

My whole family enjoyed their stay. The pool was a big hit, as was the tennis court, and croquet lawn. Facilities were excellent, friendly owners who went above and beyond our expectations. Would highly recommend and plan on another visit.

Prince Rupert House is a very beautiful house on a country estate. It has an outdoor pool which our grandchildren loved. Also croquet, tennis court and lots of walks. We had no issues with the house … it slept 10 comfortably and would accommodate 12. Great place to go and relax. 25 minutes from York and 30 minutes from Harrogate. All in all a lovely time together as a family. No complains at all. I can heartily recommended this place. They also have smaller properties too.

Just stayed for a week in August and had a great time. The house is very nice inside with good size rooms and bathrooms. In a lovely quiet spot which is great for walks. There is also the use of a good size pool. Good location to visit the surroundings areas in Yorkshire. The owners were also very helpful and assisted us with all our queries. Recommend.

Prince Rupert House is just an amazing propety. We thoroughly enjoyed our special family holiday together, and our newly born grandson arrived in time to join us too! Our grandchildren, aged 19mths to 7, loved the space for running around, secure garden for us, outdoor swimming pool used every day, great fun and such a relaxng time for us all. We hired a hot tub and so pleased we did for our stay. The house was perfect in every way, and so was our family holuday.

Wonderful property. Spacious and comfortablewith excellent facilities. Extremly well equiped even the barbaque is very big. The swimming pool is fantasic with a good shallow end and a very good size for a proper swim. Property owners lovely and quick respond to any quires. It is in some senses remote although close to York and surroung areas.
