Bondcroft Farm B&B - Embsay

Property Information

Here at Bondcroft Farm B&B we offer visitors the opportunity to stay on a working farm in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park. We are well known for our breeding of sheep dogs, and you can even observe all aspects of their training and practice for sheep dog trials! Most evening you can watch Bobby working with the border collies showing you some of their training regime. The dogs are really friendly and love all the attention, as does our pony Meg and her foal. Your host Mrs Christine Clarkson offers you her personal attention at Bondcroft Farm and a warm welcome awaits you in the friendly farmhouse atmosphere. Here you can also enjoy our excellent food and wonderful Dales views. After an active day relax in our visitors' lounge where there is a collection of interesting books and Border Fine Art.
