Murk Head is our home. It's a beautiful, tranquil place, so when we began to plan our Holiday Cottages we knew they had to be something very special indeed. Every detail is crafted to ensure you experience our beautiful Dale to the full. We look forward to meeting you and sincerely hope you will enjoy your stay with us.
Still a family business, true to Frederick Belmont’s founding principle: everything should be ‘fresh and dainty' and ‘if we want things just right we have to do them ourselves’.
The home of the ultimate thrill! Our adrenaline-fuelled offroad driving adventures are the most exhilarating, challenging and fun days out you could ever have.

We purchased Murk Head Farm in 1994, as a run down farm house set in 160 acres of very beautiful North Yorkshire countryside and some derelict barns! Today it is far from this.
From four farm buildings to four star accommodation
The location of this farm was crying out to be enjoyed so we converted the four redundant buildings into self-catering holiday cottages. The large cart shed, which also contained stables and a mill were converted into Stables, Mill and Painters holiday cottages. The remaining piggery is now unrecognisable as our single story luxury Honeysuckle Cottage.
The finest self-catering holiday cottages in
North Yorkshire
We have built our self-catering holiday cottages to a standard that is comfortable and full of luxury, we would be very happy to live in any one of them.
North Yorkshire family values
My husband Robin farms the land with the help of our twin boys (at weekends) Henry and Giles, who now both teenagers, while our daughter Antonia is now at Cambridge University. We are a family run business and have a lovely black labrador, named Pye, who is very much part of our family too.
