If you are looking for a peaceful location in
a rural setting, a holiday in the village of Ampleforth would be an
ideal option. Lying on the edge of the North
York Moors National Park, the scattered village consists of a
number of dwellings, a shop, two pubs, a fish and chip shop and an
active Abbey, as well as the fantastic scenery of the National
Park.
The market town of Helmsley
is a short distance away and offers a number of galleries,
boutiques and eateries, as well as attractions such as Helmsley
Castle, the National Centre for Birds of Prey, Helmsley Arts Centre
and the Walled Gardens. The National Park to the North also offers
plenty of walking opportunities and cycle routes and locations like
Pickering
and Scarborough
are within driving distance, making a cottage in Ampleforth an
ideal base for your next trip into North Yorkshire.
