Fabulous location, views and grounds.

Fijigirl Wimbledon
Review Submitted: September 29, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We spent a wonderful week at this house, set just a stones throw from the railway, with its steam trains!!! which we could see, and hear from the house puffing away on their journeys. Just brilliant location with some wonderful walks through the woods, which start in the garden! Caught the steam train to Whitby and Pickering and spent some time in the local pub & cafe (again just down the street). We did have a car but, unlike other trips to Yorkshire, did not need to use it as it was easy to just catch the wonderful trains or go for a wooded walk. We will return! PS: The house is full of character and the ARGA was a dream to cook on .. lovely... I would not hesitate to recommend to everyone... and have!
