Standing amidst wonderful countryside with uninterrupted views across the North Yorkshire Moors, Little Edstone Farm is a magnificent location for a combined sea and country holiday. Secluded and tranquil, guests are free to explore the woodland and landscaped grounds, home to a variety of wildlife - including wild deer and a resident barn owl. The properties are set on a small traditional organic farm and guests are welcome to participate in farming activities when available or to simply appreciate the workings of an organic farm and wildlife conservation. Many pieces of original farming machinery are on show, including a threshing machine, and guests are welcome to purchase the organic products grown here directly from the friendly owners. The properties are environmentally friendly, heated by a unique wood-burning/solar heating system, and many of the practices throughout the farm and properties use natural resources for their day-to-day running. An indoor heated swimming pool, sauna and hard tennis court shared between the properties, a small gym, a games room with pool/table tennis and a selection of board games, as well as a children’s play area complete the facilities on offer. The beautiful North Yorkshire Moors are a delight to explore either on foot or by car. The coast is easily accessible with the popular seaside resorts of Scarborough and Whitby. Explore the quaint cobbled streets of Robin Hood’s Bay, once a favourite haunt with smugglers. Castle Howard is within easy driving distance, and Flamingo Land Zoo (a popular theme park) is well worth the visit. Many NT properties can be found within a 15-mile radius. Shops 1½ miles.
