We are situated in the pretty village of Middleton, bordering Pickering. We have a Post Office and Garage with a mini supermarket within the village.

Pickering is a pleasant 20 minute walks away, where all the usual town facilities can be found, as well as the NYMR Railway, Pickering Castle and Beck Isle Museum.

We are ideally situated for visiting the coasts of Sandsend, Whitby, Robin Hoods Bay, Staithes, Filey, Scarborough to name a few. Why not visit Bempton in May/June to try and catch a glimpse of the Puffins? This is the best (and noisiest) time to see the birds nesting.

Within half an hours drive we have the historic City of York with its beautiful Minster and ancient walls. The market towns of Kirbymoorside and Helmsley only 20 minutes drive away.

Stunning Dalby Forest is a mere 15 minute drive away (or do as we do and cycle from here) with lots of new facilities opening, including a new visitor centre and Go Ape a treetop climbing and abseiling experience. Also new bike tracks have been opened and cycle hire is available in the forest.

We have a lockable cycle barn and ample car parking is available on site.

All this on our doorstep, you will be spoilt for choice. Not to mention, a whole host of gardens and museums to be visited.
