Sue
and Adam Gibson welcome you.....
Manor
Farm is a working farm in the village of Gillamoor, situated on
the edge of the North York Moors National Park. The National Park
has been established for over 50 years and is an area of outstanding,
unspoilt beauty.
From
Gillamoor there is easy access to the stunning coastline and seaside
towns such as Bridlington, Scarborough and Whitby, all with their
own character and history, including Captain Cook, smugglers and
old whaling traditions.
Inland
there are market towns such as Kirbymoorside, Helmsley, Pickering
and Malton, each with interesting open markets, shops and attractions
to explore including The North York Moors Railway, Eden Camp, Flamingo
Land, Rievaulx Abbey and many more.
York
is less than an hour away with its ancient buildings including York
Minster dating back to the 12th century. The city boasts of its
Roman and Viking history and there are many reminders and attractions
of their occupation of the city.
Closer
to Gillamoor there is beautiful Farndale, awash with daffodils in
the Spring; it is a sight that even matches Woodsworth's poem! Using
Gillamoor as your base you can explore the windswept countryside
along well maintained but sometimes narrow country lanes. There
are many pubs in which to enjoy home made cooking and traditional
beers; all accompanied by friendly service and value for money.
Our
farm is situated on the Main Street of Gillamoor and is well signposted.
As we mentioned earlier this is a working farm with the house dating
back to the 17th Century. We welcome families and their dogs and
even provide a grazing /stabling service for horses; there are some
excellent trails to explore either riding, cycling or walking around
the village with spectacular views.
If
you need any advice or recommendations on where to go, what to see
and where to eat, we would be pleased to help.
We
look forward to seeing you......
