About this property

Flax Mill Redmire Leyburn single storey architect designed property

Flax Mill ticks many boxes for families with members of all ages, being largely on one floor. The space, both inside and out, is a major feature, with high wood panelled ceilings and two lounges for relaxing, so that the different generations in a party can enjoy relaxing in their own way all under one roof. Patio at the rear with particularly lovely views. The garden and an orchard are a favourite with children looking to explore, or let off steam.

Parking next to the bungalow brings easy access for unloading and parking for two cars. 2 dogs are welcome, we just ask you to add the 'pet fee' when booking.

A lovely break in the Dales
4 adults and 2 dogs enoyed a lovely stay at Flax Mill in early June 2023. The house is very well equipped and comfortable with everything you need for your holiday. Redmire is a good base to get out into the Dales to explore, as well as taking in some beautiful local walks. The host and owner, who lives close by, were really helpful and friendly. Unfortunately the pub in the village has been closed for a while, but we heard that it has now been bought so should be reopening shortly. We arranged for a supermarket delivery on our 1st morning as there is not a shop in Redmire, but there are plenty of shops in nearby Leyburn, just a 15 min bus ride away. We would have no hesitation in returning to Flax Mill.

Very comfortable and well equipped holiday house.
Great property for 6 friends doing some walking in the area. Very spacious and well equipped. Only drawback for us was that the pub in the village was closed, but the owner recommended the Wheatsheaf nearby, and we had a couple of lovely meals there.

Lovely hideaway in Wensleydale
Overall an excellent stay, property is well equipped and well appointed. Level of cleanliness was excellent and the Christmas decorations lovely Only slightly negative for us was outside lighting not working which makes life difficult with the dogs in the winter and an enclosed outside space would have been useful Not the fault of the owners of course but the pub is currently closed which was a shame We have had a great Christmas away from home and would certainly recommend this property to others the owners are very responsive on e mail and everything was as expected Thank you Andy & Rochelle

Spacious and comfortable
Plenty of space for all. Super comfy beds. Has to be the best equipped kitchen for cooking although limited worktop space. Watching the sheep from the patio was a delight. Three minutes from the Bolton Arms for good food. If there is a niggle it would be the family bathroom shower that needs an update but don’t let that stop you.

Perfect location
We had a lovely week in the cottage, there was plenty of space and the kitchen was well equipped. There are many lovely walks from the door which we enjoyed with the dogs. The only down side was that the enclosed "secret" garden wasn't accessible due to being over grown.

Ideal base for a walking holiday around Wensleydale and Swaledaleee
Well equipped in every respect. Three showers are useful when a group returns tired and perhaps a bit muddy. Also, a good size entrance porch in which to divest muddy boots etc. And, the icing on the cake, is a properly equipped kitchen.

Great place to stay
Beautiful house, tastefully decorated and all the little details have been thought of. Plenty of room in the house, log burner for cozy evenings and having the 3 bathrooms was definitely a bonus. Although we didn't really use it due to bad weather there is also a nice patio with garden furniture and a lovely orchard garden. Local village pub also does great food. Would absolutely recommend.

Home away from home!
We stayed here at Flax Mill for a week last month (October). Just wanted a quiet place to relax and chill for a week with our two dogs, Toby (Westie) and Alfie (Bichon cross) and that's what we did. My Mum & Dad also came to stop for three nights - I got in touch with Ruth, the owner before our stay and she made sure their bedroom was made up for them - which was great. We had a lovely meal and a couple of drinks at the Bolton Arms literally a 2 minute walk from the bungalow. We looked around the village hall and bought a few books they had on sale, the locals were really friendly too. The weather wasn't great but then again we didn't expect it to be but made the best of every moment. The bungalow is warm and cozy with the added benefit of all that space and room - the log fire was lovely and just what we needed after being drenched the day we visited the waterfalls at Askrigg lol! We found the instructions for parking, checking in and out really informative. The garden is fab if you have dogs, our two get up at 5am every morning so this was great for us. The patio can be enclosed but wouldn't have worked for us as Alfie is a jumper and jumped onto the wall to see the sheep lol. We've never booked anywhere twice but we fell in love with the area and the bungalow and have re booked for July 2022. That really says it all. If you want room and space, a relaxing holiday in the Yorkshire Dale's this is your place! Thanks for having us!!

Large property, suitable for large families. Kitchen well equipped. If taking small child then may need stair gate into the lounge. Overall lots to see and do in the area. Lovely walks nearby and Bolton Castle well worth a visit. Leyburn has great facilities and shops that are open late.

Spacious clean 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom with all facilities and a wonderful view from the kitchen and 3rd bedroom to the hills across a field full of sheep and rabbits. Pretty village of Redmire has a local pub and is handy for Leyburn and only 20 mins drive from Richmond and 35 mins from Hawes. Well-placed for sightseeing and wonderful walks in Wensleydale, Coverdale, Swaledale. Very helpful owners. Highly recommended

Stunning location
The property was clean and very spacious, but the best thing about it was the location, so quiet and beautiful, with lovely walks nearby, including to Redmire Force on the river Ure where I swam a couple of times. We had a minor issue with the plumbing that required attention and the hosts were very responsive and got it resolved quickly. I'd also asked if it was ok to have friends over for an afternoon tea party and the hosts provided extra garden chairs and were really helpful with parking suggestions.

What a gem
Lovely spot in this quiet village, close enough to Leyburn for supplies and central for exploring. Fields at the back with sheep and lambs. Walks from the doorstep down to the river for paddling for kids. A great pub for food and drinks (family friendly) We really enjoyed Flax Mill, it was spacious for us and our 4 children, the added bonus of games/ kids tv room was great! The children made good use of the large lawned area playing ball games. The private patio area, which you can make secure was perfect for keeping our toddler and little terrier safe. The house had everything you need! We would love to come back again soon.

Lovely house in Redmire
Lovely village and the house is located next to sheep field and lovely view beyond. Good comfortable bedrooms and lovely sitting room. Some fixtures felt a little cheap and dated, which detracted a little from the feel of the nice house. The kitchen set up with a swing door made it difficult to ‘corral’ the dogs as we didn’t want them roaming the house. The main garden is beautiful and although is not directly connected to the house, it is easily accessed just over a neighbours driveway - however this garden is not enclosed. The back courtyard is enclosed and directly off the kitchen/utility room and looks over the sheep field which has a charming view. Overall a comfortable stay in a very nice house.

good size property in an excellent location with every effort to comply with any Covid regulations - walks from the door and ideal to access the Dales, facilities in easy reach. Neighbours were friendly and helpful. Only criticism would be that the kitchen and utensils could be "tight" for seven people, but overall a great property and location.

A Dales Delight!
We booked Flax Mill prior to the ongoing Covid situation and as the rules regarding travel and overnight stays were changing from time-to-time we weren't sure if we would even make it here for our week-long break........but thankfully we did! This property is fabulous and was exactly as described on the website but really has to be seen to be fully appreciated. We were a party of four adults, one teenager (and a black Labrador!!) and the space in the Mill was fantastic. The large lounge was a particular highlight as we could all sit together in the evenings and relax which is always an important part of any holiday. All the bedrooms were roomy and the beds were exceptionally comfortable. Given the current Covid requirements for deep cleaning it was obvious how well this property had been prepared for our visit while still maintaining a homely feel. The outside space was also much appreciated and it was nice to have a secure area for the dog too. In fact if there was anything at all we missed it was a tumble drier, not a huge issue in the grand scheme of things and obviously we didn't spend the week doing laundry but it would have been useful (and certainly NOT a complaint, merely an observation). The property is located in the centre of the village on the main street but is tucked well back from the road so what little traffic noise there is was well muted and certainly never caused any issues. The village pub, the Bolton Arms is a few minutes walk away and is highly recommended for a drink or a meal. Outside the village there are many and varied attractions and a few minutes searching the internet will provide far more information but nearby Bolton Castle is well worth a visit, and Aysgarth Falls is probably a must-see and is only a few minutes drive away. Flax Mill is definitely one of the best properties we have ever visited and is one we would love to return to - hopefully soon.

About the host

Hosted by The Disneys

Host profile image
Our love of the Yorkshire Dales (inc honeymoon in 1992) led to a dream being fulfilled in 2011 with our first (neighbouring) cottage in Redmire. A warm welcome from the villagers and the nearby excellent Bolton Arms confirmed that Redmire was also the place for our first foray into letting a holiday home. One of us tries to be on hand to welcome guests and explain the extensive amenities and grounds that your party can enjoy, with orchard and small paddock, great for children and dogs.

We are pleased with the delightful comments guests have made, mostly about the spacious interior and grounds and how Flax Mill has 'everything they need'. Our guests' comfort is our paramount concern and we want you to feel Flax Mill lives up to, and exceeds, our claim.

Why they chose this property

Apart from the pub, friendly villagers and views, convenience is a big plus for Redmire, with Leyburn and its small supermarkets and speciality stores only 5 miles away and lots of local attractions to visit. Walkers and cyclists will find ample trips and walks on the doorstep, with (for the energetic) no need to get in the car to see Castle Bolton, Redmire Falls, Bolton Hall, Aysgarth Falls and the Wensleydale Railway at its Redmire terminus.

What makes this property unique

Flax Mill ticks many boxes for families with members of all ages, being largely on one floor. The space, both inside and out, is a major feature, with high wood panelled ceilings and two lounges for relaxing, so that the different generations in a party can enjoy relaxing in their own way all under one roof. Patios at both front and rear give the best chance for outdoor relaxing and dining, with particularly lovely views from the rear. The garden and an orchard are a favourite with children looking to explore, or let off steam.

Parking next to the bungalow brings easy access for unloading and parking for two cars.
