Take a journey on the North Yorkshire Moors Steam Railway and visit some of the areas where The Philosopher's Stone was filmed if you're a Harry Potter fan! The Beck Isle Museum, which features a distinctive collection of black and white photography and exhibits of rural life, is also highly recommended.

The key safe catch is worn smooth and difficult to open. The upper panel of the front door is rotten. Not a welcoming first impression. The low voltage lights in open plan room are too dim and do not reflect the bright photos in your website. Very antiquated fixed shower over difficult to access bath, hazardous for elderly. Piping hot water from taps but only-luke warm in shower. Lack of signage off lane. Problem shared by neighbours. BBC channels constantly pixilating to the point of unusable. Wi-Fi connections erratic despite visit from Open Reach mechanic. Comfortable lounge furniture and beds. But limited wardrobe space. Excellent central heating system. Peaceful location with regular visits from neighbouring peacock. Easy access to regional attractions. Recommend Pickering/Whitby steam railway, CedarBarn farm shop & Cafe en-route to Thorton le Dale, Cropton New Inn.
