It all began with a single spark of vision and a deep love for the North Yorkshire countryside.

Back in 2015, we purchased the High Oaks Grange estate—an enchanting spot nestled between Pickering and Thornton-le-Dale. What followed was four years of planning, graft, and a clear vision to create something truly special. From converting barns to crafting bespoke glamping pods, every detail was carefully considered and personally overseen by our family.

In June 2019, after years of behind-the-scenes work, we quietly let the world know we existed. Within hours, we received our very first booking—a moment that will always stay with us as the start of something extraordinary. High Oaks Grange opened to guests in July 2019.
