Ever wonder what the village is like at The Old Dairy?
The stunning village of Gainford carries so much history which can be seen in the architecture as you walk around the village. It dates back to the 11th century, don’t believe me, take a walk through the grave yard and see what the oldest grave stone you can find is.

We have availability from today until friday 26th June.
It’s a crime that this place is empty. It’s so stunning it needs to be enjoyed. I’ve put a last minute discount on airbnb and our website (link in bio)
I’ve just left after cleaning to go to the local beer garden and it’s 24 degrees. This could be you!
We are then available again 28 June - 3 July,
5-11 July,
28-30 July,
It’s also hard to believe we only have 15 weekends available left available this year. Weekends are getting booked up quickly.
