The Old Coach House

About this property

A delightful, stone-built, detached barn conversion, set in a peaceful location in the picturesque village of Thornton-le-Dale, 2 miles from Pickering. Decorated and equipped to a high standard, the property offers spacious and comfortable accommodation which has been carefully renovated to retain much of the original charm and character, boasting vaulted ceilings, beautiful exposed beams and a superb open plan living area. The village square, with its gift shops, scrumptious tea rooms and bistros is within easy walking distance, and the pretty stream running through offers an idyllic setting for tranquil walks. An excellent base for exploring the nearby market towns and the North York Moors, with the seaside resort of Scarborough just 16 miles away and excellent mountain biking in Dalby Forest, The Old Coach House has something to please everyone!

Just two miles to the east of Pickering, the beautiful village of Thornton-le-Dale lies within The North York Moors National Park. This charming little village has a complicated shape and is comprised of a fascinating labyrinth of streams and paths which run between the pretty houses and around the village green, which still has its wooden stocks and a market cross. Hidden amongst the beautiful houses is a selection of shops, pubs and tearooms whilst the nearby market town of Pickering offers a further range of essential services as well as the North York Moors Steam Railway. The Forestry Commission woodland at Dalby is worth a visit and has several excellent nature trails to be enjoyed whilst slightly further away is the historic cathedral city of York with its huge range of shops, cinemas and museums.
