JEWEL IN THE CROWN
Nestled in the heart of the beautiful North Yorkshire Dales is Crown Spindle Mill – an oasis of calm and tranquility where luxury and relaxation combine effortlessly to provide the ultimate escape for holiday guests.
When Tracy Youngman and Andrew Asquith purchased the Crown Spindle Mill in 2020, their vision was to transform the 18th century Embsay property into a dream destination for everybody to enjoy.
Now two years on that dream has become a reality with the mill having undergone extensive restoration and the doors finally open to the most exquisite individual holiday homes imaginable.
Dating back to 1820 and set in breathtaking gardens, the charming retreat, which comes complete with its own original cast iron water wheel, exposed beams, trusses and 120ft stone mill chimney has been lovingly transformed by the couple to provide five-star accommodation that now welcomes guests from around the world.
Split into three beautifully designed properties, guests can choose from the one-bedroom Engine House; the two bedroom Sunny Bank Cottage or the sumptuous main country house which sleeps up to eight people in the lap of luxury.
Talking about the restoration, Tracy, an interior designer said: “When the chance came to purchase the mill our vision was always to make this a dream destination for people wanting to escape to the country and experience a holiday home with the WOW factor.
“Hopefully we have achieved that and created something that combines the peace and tranquility of such a beautiful location with the luxury of a five star hotel.”
No expense has been spared when it comes to looking after guests and private chefs can even be ordered to serve up gourmet delights should visitors want to really push the boat out and truly indulge themselves.
Each accommodation comes standard with a selection of local teas and coffees, a starter breakfast basket and a small welcome bottle of Champagne while an extensive wine selection and cheese board can also be ordered when booking your room.
So, whether it is an idyllic escape for two in the country, a family celebration, a wedding gathering or a company retreat, this really is no run-of-the-mill escape and one you’re sure to fall in love with.
