Re: Quaint villages around York/Leeds
Hi G&M,
We've seen a house we quite like in Copmanthorpe although it' s not quite as period as we'd like. Will check out Bishopthorpe.
I also liked Tadcaster when we've driven through it BUT the John Smiths brewery is there and the place constantly pongs of yeast etc.

Re: Quaint villages around York/Leeds
Hi guys,
Struggling to find what we're looking for ( for what money we've got ) in York itself, house wise.
Anyone know any gorgeous villages with local ammenities around York or Leeds as that's where we'll be working.
I've been looking for ages but not finding what we want near to York especially. I've checked out all the main vilages.
I seem to find our dream home everywhere else tho!
If Rightmove.co.uk gave bonuses for how many times you used their service- I'd be well rich!
*pearly*

I would imagine that you closer you get to Leeds, the more you will pay. But that is the price for living in paradise.
What about the North Yorkshire moors area, very reasonable.

Harrogate, Harrogate, Harrogate!! Its lovely and its 16 miles to Leeds and 20 to York and the train goes to both. Train line between Leeds/York has places such as Weeton (Huby), Cattal, Green Hammerton etc. I live in Pannal and on the train can be in Leeds in 25 minutes and York in about 40.

Re: Quaint villages around York/Leeds
Near York I liked:
Holme on spalding moor
Bishop Burton
Cherry Burton
Bubwith
Skipwith
Eskrick
Weldrake
Elvington
I passed through these to work from Hull to York everyday, but theres heaps more around York with that old country feel to them, they all have adorable little pubs
Youve got me looking at properties there now lol, Im originally from Hull and if we ever return we dont want to be back in the city

Re: Quaint villages around York/Leeds
Howden is lovely, as is Snaith and Carlton - all Handy for the M62. I lived in Goole for a number of years, and although that's not exactly what I'd call a quaint village, there are some lovely places around it.
