Why they chose this property
This is where the children grew up and has been a family home for over 26 years. The feeling you get just walking inside the front door is calm and enchanting, allowing you to quickly feel very at home and make the place your own. Masham is still a town where people like to say 'good morning' and stop for a bit of a chat, interested where you are from and why you are here - and you get lots of local knowledge from the locals keen to make sure you see it all. It's our little 'bubble' and we love it here. We'd love you to experience our love for Morton House and Masham.

The fact that Morton House is Grade II listed, renovated with your comfort in mind and is maintained to high standard all leads to a great stay.

The loft beams are said to have come from a ship and the main structure is dated late 16th/early 17th century.
