The Appeal of our Home - The Owners Insight
Plum Tree House has been the perfect family home for us over the past 20 years, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to live here to raise our three children. It has provided everything we could have wished for: an excellent primary school and wonderful local secondary schools as the children grew, to two fabulous village pubs and an exceptional doctor’s surgery. Just as importantly, we have loved being part of such a warm and welcoming community, getting involved in village life through summer fairs, an active church community holding Lent lunches and pancake parties in the village hall, regular quiz nights and many other social occasions.
The location has also been incredibly convenient for our family with the market towns of Thirsk and Ripon being within a 10-minute drive. It has made commuting to Leeds, London and Sunderland for work straightforward, while giving us easy access to the beautiful North York Moors, Yorkshire Dales and the wonderful countryside that surrounds us. Sutton Bank, Fountains Abbey and Kilburn Woods have been favourite places for walking, while we have enjoyed countless happy days exploring Brimham Rocks, Helmsley and Masham, as well as the many wonderful places right on our doorstep.
In truth, Plum Tree House will be rather difficult to leave because it has simply worked so well for us as a family. The house itself has been perfectly suited to the life we have enjoyed here, giving us space to grow as a family and to welcome friends and relatives to stay. We have made so many happy memories here, and it will be very special to see another family begin making their own memories at Plum Tree House.
