LOCATION Highly sought after idyllic rural location, in the picturesque village of Felixkirk, which benefits from a highly regarded pub, and village church. Situated in a beautiful stretch of countryside tucked away on the fringe of The North Yorkshire Moors National Park, Foxhills occupies a pretty and elevated position adjoining open fields with breathtaking views over the Vale of York with the Hambleton Hills immediately behind. The property has been in the same family for 40 years, the owners having sensitively developed a successful long established self catering holiday business sympathetic to the landscape attracting a high proportion of repeat bookings year after year from a loyal customer base. The historic market town of Thirsk is situated approximately 3.5 miles to the south-west which offers a wide range of amenities, shops, restaurants and facilities.
