Property information

Harmony House is a boutique B&B with each room uniquely stylised. Parts of Harmony House date back to the 17th Century and we have been keen to retain many of the original features whilst upgrading it to 21st century standards. The rustic red brickwork blends well with the surrounding neighbourhood. We are situated in the tranquil rural village of Stillingfleet, offering relaxed luxury accommodation overlooking The Green, yet we are only a 15 minute drive from the centre of York. If you are staying in one of our gorgeous rooms in the main house, we include a delicious breakfast with choices from our al-la-carte breakfast menu. All our dishes are prepared using quality ingredients, which are locally sourced wherever possible. A Room-Only option is available in all rooms. A stay in Willow Cottage comes with a complimentary continental breakfast hamper on bookings of 3 or more nights. Children & up to 2 well-behaved dogs are welcome in Willow Cottage with an extra fee, but we regret we cannot accommodate either in the main house. Adele and her team are really looking forward to welcoming you into their beautiful home from home and hope you have an enjoyable stay as their highly valued guests. Please note: we have limited public transport to the area and a car is recommended!

Neighbourhood information

Location: Harmony House overlooks the village green and Stillingfleet Beck, where you can often see the barn owl flying, or hear a woodpecker at his work. It is set in a lovely quiet location, surrounded by miles of open countryside, yet only 10 minutes drive from the outskirts of York. We are about 1 mile from the Sustrans 65 cycleway and there are several scenic walks around the area, with myriads of public footpaths winding their way through the local countryside. Eating out: There are several excellent restaurants, pubs and a garage within 3 miles. There is no shop in the village itself, but you will find supermarkets and the York Designer Outlet just a short drive away. Public Transport: We have a bus service (number 42), which runs every 90 minutes until around 6pm (except Sundays). The Park and Ride is just 10 minutes drive away. Taxis are available for hire from York and Selby.
