Could Omaze's new Yorkshire house be its most enticing prize draw yet? If you're dreaming of squirrelling away to the English countryside, this beautiful six-bedroom, four-bathroom historic house in the quaint North Yorkshire village of Little Ouseburn could not be more perfect for cosying down in this autumn.

Inside, there are six bedrooms, four bathrooms and a guest cottage. There is a lot of house beyond that too, with a drawing room, lounge, dining room, kitchen and pantry, reception hall and library also inside. There's also a boot room by the utility room – perfect for muddy walks in your private woodland.

With an Aga cooker in the kitchen, a library with ladder, and original stone fireplaces throughout, the grand family house manages to feel cosy and lived-in but with all the mod cons, contemporary art on the walls, linens, furnishings – and double-door wine fridge – one would want.

In the warmer months, or for cold-swimming fans, the outdoor space is pretty incredible. The house comes with its own lake with a wooden jetty and a rowing boat.

Roses wind along a pergola and a courtyard with a rustic table is surrounded by mature olive trees and hydrangeas – an idyllic spot to host al fresco.

The brick-and-glass potting shed is ideal for plant enthusiasts wanting to keep their gardening alive in the colder months, complete with trailing vines and a crop of potted plants and veggies.

Its location, Little Ouseburn, is a charming village in North Yorkshire. Cattal train station nearby takes you to York, Harrogate and Leeds directly. The house is almost commutable to London for those that need that – with York to King's Cross taking around two hours.

The keys will be handed to one lucky winner, mortgage free. Enter by 11 October for the chance to win £100,000 and a BMW M3 Touring car, too.
