Step outside and you will find yourself in the very heart of the village. The local pub is just around the corner and serves delicious meals and traditional ale. There is also a well-stocked village shop and Post Office just across the road. A takeaway can also be found within walking distance. The remains of the 14th century Sheriff Hutton Castle keeps a watchful eye over the village; the castle was one of Richard III’s favourite castles, you can even see it from the rear main bedroom! There is a bus stop adjacent to the property with buses to York, Malton, and Castle Howard.

A short drive brings you to Castle Howard, famous as the home of Brideshead Revisited. With a year-round programme of events a visit here is a must. This area is just perfect for those who enjoy walking and cycling with miles of lanes, public footpaths, and bridleways to explore. York golf course is also a 5-minute drive away.

The bustling market towns of Easingwold, Malton, Helmsley and Pickering are within easy reach. With the North York Moors, Dalby Forest, coastal towns of Whitby and Scarborough and a host of National Trust properties all nearby, this Sheriff Hutton holiday home provides an ideal base for all the family all year round.

Great property to stay at if visiting local or exploring area.

The property was clean and well presented, the gift basket and have the bbq equipment and local walks info was great touch. Would be good if had updated information on local businesses, post office opening hours didn't match what was online & queried about food at pub but always got told they where fully booked even though the pub didn't seem busy, advise to book in advance. Tried looking for the local butchers twice and even tried calling them but could locate.
