Harry Potter-themed holiday let - made to look like Gryffindor's Dorm - created in Yorkshire

A holiday let in the North York Moors has been transformed into the set of a Harry Potter film. Charlotte Graham went inside.

Harry Potter fans can now immerse themselves in their favourite film (or book) thanks to a new holiday let in the North York Moors. North Shire at Liverton, on the edge of the National Park, has just opened its latest storybook-themed accommodation. The Dorm has been created by business entrepreneur and designer Carol Cavendish, who said: "Today when there’s so much fear around the pandemic, people are looking for ways they can step back from reality for a short time and be comforted in a world of make-believe which is just what The Dorm aims to do along with our other accommodation."
