The Poplars  

Tucked in Thirsk’s gardens, this 1901 farmhouse bed & breakfast sits within an acre of grounds and has a pet-friendly, family‑run vibe. It’s just 250 m from the train station, offers easy access to the A1, A61 and A19, and is a short drive from North York Moors National Park, Zillah Bell Gallery and Thirsk Museum; Lightwater Valley and Fountains Abbey are within day‑trip range.

Originally a farmhouse, The Poplars blends classic country character with clean, contemporary touches. Rooms are accessed via private entrances and come with garden views and thoughtful extras like Freeview TV, power showers, bathrobes, mineral water and tea & coffee.

Stand-out perks include a cozy bar/lounge, on-site restaurant and a guest BBQ area. Free self‑parking and free Wi‑Fi keep things easy, while nearby mountain biking and peaceful garden mornings add a relaxed countryside feel.

Free Wi‑Fi and on-site self-parking make this a convenient base for work or transit. Proximity to the train station and major routes suits business travelers and commuters.

Breakfast is available for a fee and earns praise as a proper B&B start to the day. Wind down with drinks at the bar or enjoy casual meals at the restaurant or the BBQ area.
