We are within easy reach of York (1 hour) which has many attractions including a renowned gothic cathedral, medieval city walls, Roman and Viking remains, old city streets and wonderful restaurants. It is steeped in history and culture. Stage two of the Grand Depart of the tour de France left York in 2014.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

We live in a very beautiful part of Northern England with the North York Moors, the Yorkshire Wolds and the Yorkshire coast all on our doorstep. We are an hour from the historical city of York with its amazing minster and excellent shopping. Our home is in a very quiet lane, our large garden is private, tranquil and full of wild birds. Our home is 200 years old and built of the traditional chalk stone, as are many other homes in the village. We have a local pub that serves good value meals and good beers. This area is excellent for walking, cycling, surfing and sightseeing. There are several very pretty fishing villages along the coast within easy access. Scarborough is one of the oldest seaside resorts in the UK and there are many walks with spectacular views to enjoy. There are also good restaurants, theatres and music venues. There is an active music scene in the town. Going inland there are many traditional English villages to explore and Dalby Forest, good for walking and cycling.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

Scarborough is the second most visited place in the U.K. after London. The harbour, castle and South Cliff Gardens are all delightful. You can enjoy theatre in the round at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, home to Alan Ayckbourn, the world's most popular living playwright. There is a flourishing music scene including a Jazz Club, Europe's largest open air theatre, and the lovely Scarborough Spa Theatre on the sea front.
We live close to several beautiful beaches; Filey, Clayton Bay, Scarborough South Bay and Scarborough North Bay and we are about 50 minutes from Whitby.
We are close to the North York Moors National Park with beautiful scenery and many lovely walks. To the south we have the Yorkshire Wolds and many pretty villages and walks to enjoy. York, with the fabulous Minster ( the largest gothic cathedral in Northern Europe), city walls, galleries and shopping is an hour away.
