Surprise View Cottages provide an excellent base for walking, being on the very edge of the Moors and having immediate access to fields, tracks, woods and a network of public footpaths including the link walk; you can walk out leaving your car behind!
Named after the well-known, panoramic view looking down from the nearby church at Gillamoor; they are only one mile from the picturesque village of Hutton-le-Hole with its renowned Ryedale Folk Museum.
Even though in the heart of the country, they are central for cycling and touring the area, being only twenty five miles from York, Whitby and Scarborough. They have a wealth of historic Abbeys, Churches and Castles on the doorstep as well as major attractions like Castle Howard, North York Moors Railway, and Flamingoland.
There are shops and services in the nearby market towns of Helmsley, Kirkbymoorside and Pickering.
Surprise View Cottages are on a working farm, a short distance from the farmhouse. They are near to and overlook ancient stone buildings which once housed a Mill and Tannery, being in the owners family for over two hundred years.
Each has a South-facing stone-paved patio area. Surprise View Cottage itself sleeps four and has flower troughs bordering the mill race and a fenced lawned area looking North on to fields and woods. Field Barn Cottage sleeps four and is set higher up the hill with panoramic views over the moors and valleys, enhanced by its ha-ha (sunken wall) which gives uninterrupted vision. Lowna Farmhouse sleeps up to eight guests and is in an exceptional position like a jewel set in the green and gold of the Moors and woodlands and valleys.
