4 Bedroom House in Ampleforth

Prospect House is a handsome, three storey, four bedroom family home and a perfect base for exploring all of the beautiful countryside and coast of North Yorkshire. The house was originally owned by a family of stonemasons who worked on the local churches, houses and schools including Ampleforth Abbey. The name of the house reflects the wonderful views of the so-called Gilling Gap from the first floor bedrooms!
Ampleforth has existed as a village since Saxon times and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. The village is situated at the southern boundary of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park, just north of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and surrounded by beautiful countryside, offering scenic walks and cycling routes right from the front door. Just five minutes' drive away is the pretty market town of Helmsley with its Castle, Walled Garden, Duncombe Park and a wide range of shops, pubs and restaurants.
Mason's Cottage (sleeping two guests) is next to Prospect House and available to book through Rural Retreats.

Summary: Prospect House is a beautifully appointed spacious property in a very pretty Yorkshire village .The house is tastefully decorated, very comfortable and extremely well equipped. There is even a box full of toys for your dog. There are 2 lounges so for our 3 generational break the space worked well in terms of being together or being apart . The one small downside was that there is no drive to oark your car which needs to be left on the main road. So for loading and unloading luggage this was a slight inconvenience as there is a steepish walk up a path to the house which is set back from the road . This was a little difficult for my 86 year old mother in law and possibly for people with mobility difficulties.
