About this property

A dog friendly hideaway with country walks from the doorstep, Church Farm is well-placed for families looking to explore the North York Moors and the East Coast. Tucked away in the quiet village of Wilton, this hideaway is ideally located near to popular destinations such as; Thornton le Dale, the location for the television series Bangers and Cash; Pickering, where you can hop on the North York Moors Railway; and, of course, Yorkshire's glorious coastline, home to the seaside towns Scarborough, Whitby and Filey.

Generously spacious, the well-equipped farmhouse kitchen features a stylish dining area with ample room to enjoy any meal. In the comfortable sitting room, the cosy wood burner is perfect for curling up in front of after a busy da, or relax and unwind with a good book or a morning coffee in the delightful conservatory. This 18th century stone-built farmhouse sleeps up to six guests in three delightful, larger than average bedrooms (a super-king, and two king-size beds) boasting spectacular views of the surrounding countryside. Each of thee rooms benefits from having access to the modern shower room.

    Excellent house in fantastic location for touring about. The house was spacious and well equipped and the welcome pack was exceptional! There is a farm shop nearby with an honesty box for fresh eggs and while we were there the chippie van came up the street! lol I would recommend this property to everyone!!
