    Thank you for a very enjoyable stay in this great cottage. We are not used to such attention to detail and we thought the welcome pack was really good. If we get a chance in the future we would like a break here on our own.

The nearby market town of Northallerton plays home to the famous Bettys Tearooms, Lewis & Coopers Food Emporium as well as Barkers Department store. Just 10 minutes drive away is the market town of Thirsk, home to the James Herriot Museum and Thirsk racecourse.

The Yorkshire Dales and the North Yorkshire Moors are within easy reach for you to enjoy the spectacular countryside. In less than an hour you will find yourself enjoying the beautiful coastlines of the fishing town of Whitby or the traditional seaside resort of Scarborough.

Closer still you will find the beautiful market town of Helmsley which is only 19 miles away on the road between Thirsk and Scarborough. Home to an abundance of quaint shops, tearooms and family attractions, Helmsley is a fabulous day out.
