North Duffield and Skipwith are pretty Yorkshire villages just 12 miles south of York. With a range of traditional red brick and modern houses, each village has a lovely village green and pond and a 'local' pub. Skipwith has a church, which dates back to the Anglo Saxon times, whilst North Duffield has a 19th Century Methodist church. This is a sleepy, relaxing area, ideal for getting away from all the stresses and strains of modern life. Locally, a 1000-acre nature reserve dominates the landscape, along with Skipwith Common, ideal for keen birdwatchers. Seven miles west is the market town of Selby with its beautiful abbey, and just a short drive to the north is the city of York; from the famous Minster to the medieval walls, the city is teeming with historical sites of interest. Explore York's quaint streets and hidden corners or take an excursion further afield - the Yorkshire Dales, Yorkshire Moors or the coastal resorts of Scarborough, Bridlington, Whitby and Filey are all within easy reach.

Previous visitors' comments about Lawns House Farm:
The house had plenty of space and the garden was excellent for young children. I enjoyed the holiday and the property. It was ideal for a family get together of 12 people ranging in age from 8 months to 70+ years. The area, although not in a major tourist zone, still provided plenty to do.
Mrs Whitfield, Newcastle upon Tyne, August 2011
Fantastic value for money. The property was within driving distance of activities and places to visit for all 13 members of our family, from age 3 to 83. The property is spacious and is much bigger than it looks in photographs. It is set in a beautiful and quiet location and the welcome packets of biscuits, refreshments and milk were much appreciated. Very helpful caretaker.
Mrs Dunstan, Hornchurch, August 2011
The garden was good for our young children, it was enclosed and safe. The house and rooms are large and the owner very helpful. The location was peaceful and safe and the animals were interesting for the children. The downstairs bedroom was a plus as we had our 91 year old Mum with us. We could have stayed another week.
Mrs Foster, Bacup, July 2011
A fantastic, quiet and spacious place for a family get together. We'll be back.
