Spent a fantastic week at the start of April. Echo the previous comments; peace and tranquility, nice views, great location for local attractions and a trip to the coast. Lane up from the A170 is a bit narrow but we only met one oncoming vehicle all week, and there are places to pass. Andrea was friendly and welcoming. Our four small, geriatric dogs certainly enjoyed the sedate pace of life! We all had a nice stroll down the lane adjacent to the entrance. Helmsley is a lovely town, and we recommend a trip to Wharram Percy, deserted medieval village, just the other side of Malton. Good forest walks and views on the Helmsley to Stokesley road, handy when visiting Rievaulx Abbey. Would certainly mark it down as a CL to use again.
