Whether you prefer road cycling or mountain biking, the surrounding area offers fantastic routes through the North York Moors. For walkers, there are 40 acres of private land to explore, from gentle strolls down to the lake to birdwatch, to more adventurous routes leading into Harwood Dale or Broxa Forest, both offering countless trails for all abilities.

Primrose Cottage has loads of room, is cosy and very well thought out. Plenty of parking and it's own patio. The views on a good day are amazing! We visited Whitby, Scarborough, Dalby Forest, all of which are easy to get to, and Broxa Forest is just a short drive away. There are lots of narrow lanes to navigate to get to the property (which we are used to) but it is well worth it. The farm animals are an added attraction and there is a resident Cockerel who loves to let you know when the sun is up! The communication with Bryony was excellent - thank you. Definitely recommend - thank you!
