Price Guide: 4 (explain)

Just six miles north of the beautiful city of York, Claxton Grange consists of a total of 14 properties and stands within 16 acres of private grounds, encompassing woodland, orchards and a wildlife pond. Formerly a working farm, it now offers spacious and very comfortable accommodation for visitors, together with an excellent range of facilities to enjoy on site, including an indoor heated swimming-pool, games room and hard tennis court. All the properties have been completely renovated, Hutton, and The Farmhouse have their own garden, Hockney has a shared courtyard and shared lawn area. The Farmhouse offers two sitting rooms, a very spacious farmhouse kitchen and five bedrooms, making it ideal for large families or groups, while the cottages also offer attractive and roomy accommodation, all with cosy electric ‘wood burners’ in open fireplaces. With such comfortable surroundings, a wealth of interesting places on the doorstep, and superb countryside to explore, this is a wonderful base for a holiday at any time of the year. York is always a delight to visit, with plenty to see and do for all members of the family. Still retaining the look and feel of its medieval past, it is dominated by the magnificent Minster, with its superb array of stained glass windows, some of the finest in England. The city’s museums are second to none, with a great variety on offer. The renowned Jorvik Viking Centre gives a vivid description of Viking Age York, while the National Railway Museum and Castle Museum provide further excellent excursions. A walk around the ancient city walls makes a good introduction to the city, its medieval centre still full of narrow cobbled streets, once housing the city’s craftsmen. Now picturesque and flower-decked, they are crammed with little specialist shops, including antiques and jewellery, with frequent street players adding to the atmosphere. After a day of sightseeing, there is a very good choice of restaurants and riverside inns to relax in, or a boat trip up the river offers another way to while away a leisurely afternoon. Other places to visit include Castle Howard, one of England’s grandest houses, in a beautiful parkland setting, Nunnington Hall, and the majestic ruins of Rievaulx Abbey, all of which are within easy reach of the cottages. Also just a few miles away is the market town of Pickering, gateway to the North York Moors National Park. This is fine walking country, with a high, heather-clad plateau cut by deep, secluded valleys, where little, grey-stone villages cluster about a stream. Pickering is also the terminus of the moors steam railway, which runs northwards to picturesque Goathland and Grosmont. The coastal resorts of Filey, Scarborough and Whitby are all within 40 miles, making them accessible for day trips, and there is racing at York, Thirsk, Ripon, Beverley and Wetherby. Closer to home, Clifton Moor offers bowling and a multi-cinema complex just 6 miles away._<ul><li>Elec and full oil CH incl </li><li>Ample parking space</li><li>Shop 1 mile</li><li>TV (Teletext)</li><li>Video</li><li>Shared utility with coin-operated wm and tumble dryer</li><li>M/wave</li><li>D/washer</li><li>Shared grounds of 16 acres with hard tennis court and unfenced wildlife pond (toddlers beware!)</li><li>Shared barbecue area with built-in barbecue</li><li>Shared games room with pool table</li><li>Shared indoor heated swimming-pool with changing and showering facilities (8am–9pm)</li><li>Duvets with linen and towels</li><li>Non-smokers only</li></ul>_<ul><li>Elec and full oil CH incl </li><li>Ample parking space</li><li>Shop 1 mile</li><li>TV (Teletext)</li><li>Video</li><li>Shared utility with coin-operated wm and tumble dryer</li><li>M/wave</li><li>D/washer</li><li>Shared grounds of 16 acres with hard tennis court and unfenced wildlife pond (toddlers beware!)</li><li>Shared barbecue area with built-in barbecue</li><li>Shared games room with pool table</li><li>Shared indoor heated swimming-pool with changing and showering facilities (8am–9pm)</li><li>Duvets with linen and towels</li><li>Non-smokers only</li></ul>_Just six miles north of the beautiful city of York, Claxton Grange consists of a total of 14 properties and stands within 16 acres of private grounds, encompassing woodland, orchards and a wildlife pond.
