This luxury, country house bed and breakfast occupies an enviable location on the edge of the North York Moors National Park in the pretty village of Newton upon Rawcliffe, just 4 miles north of the market town of Pickering and offers stunning views out toward the Yorkshire Wolds.
With 3 king size bedrooms and 1 super king, all elegantly decorated and well furnished, complete with contemporary en-suite facilities and many little extra treats, The Old Vicarage at Toftly View provides the highest quality, 5 star, gold award winning guest accommodation. Drench showers, i-pod dock DAB radio alarm clocks, plus homemade biscuits and chocolates add touches of luxury that will make your stay a memorable one.
The Old Vicarage welcomes walkers and cyclists and with the Yorkshire Wolds and North York Moors on the doorstep, as well as great rail networks into the National Park this really is a great base from which to explore the beautiful North Yorkshire countryside. The steam trains of the North York Moors Railway run from nearby Pickering right up through Newtondale and on to Grosmont, deep in the National Park - a great way to start your day’s adventuring, or a relaxing means to make your journey back.
After a hard day’s exploring relax with a pot of tea and a slice of Neville’s homemade cake (his lemon drizzle cake is a favourite with returning guests). Afternoon tea is served daily, either in the warmth and comfort of the guest sitting in front of the fire, or out in the garden with the stunning backdrop of the North Yorkshire countryside.
Breakfast at The Old Vicarage starts with orange juice, freshly squeezed and served up along side a selection of cereals and fresh fruit. Then, choose from a range of healthy and hearty options, including locally smoked haddock, French toast, or a traditional Yorkshire breakfast. Locally sourced, seasonal produce is used whenever possible, including fruits from the owner’s allotment, eggs from the local farm and homemade bread and preserves.
The local pub, The White Swan, is only a 5 minute walk away and offers a good selection of homecooked food, including their famous steak pie. There are plenty of pubs and restaurants near Newton upon Rawcliffe covering all tastes. Neville and Barbara are happy to advise on the best places to go and make reservations on behalf of guests if required.
