My husband and I took both our Mumâs away for a break. We were all impressed with the quality, comfort and cleanliness of the property. Itâs been decorated and maintained at a very high standard. Ed and James were really friendly and my MIL loved meeting the Alpacas with my husband. The property was lovely and warm and welcoming after days out and the location couldnât be better if you wanted to see everything Yorkshire has to offer. We really recommend the World of James Herriot in Thirsk. Was totally wheelchair friendly and the staff were so knowledgeable. We also visited the Wensleydale Creamery in the Dales and took the Cheesemaking tour which was fab. Whitby is also easy to get to from the property through the North York moors and âHeartbeatâ country where youâll find Goathland aka âAidensfieldâ Absolutely fabulous week!
