North Shire is situated in a rural destination location off Liverton Road, on the northern edge of the North York Moors National Park. The site benefits from having peaceful moorland outlooks, whilst being accessible to the A171 which is the main road linking Whitby to Teesside.

Being situated on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, North Shire provides an ideal base to explore the surrounding natural landscape, with the highly popular tourist town of Whitby being only 13 or so miles distant. The desirable regional location and accessibility to both Whitby and Teesside mean that the location lends itself to other similar holiday/ leisure uses such as a holiday park or holiday cottage complex.

Scaling Dam Reservoir is only two miles away and offers sailing , paddle sports and open water swimming activities.

The property is within an hour’s drive of the Teesside urban area and therefore has access to a catchment of c. 700,000 people, excluding the surrounding populations of North Yorkshire.

Whitby itself receives over a million visitors annually being one of the most popular seaside resorts in the UK. Whitby attractions include Whitby Abbey, The Dracula Experience and Goth Weekends.

3 bedroom owner's cottage

The Property occupies a sizeable site and benefits from having a large modern wedding barn in order to re-establish a wedding/ events venue. The property benefits from various planning permissions which would allow the expansion of the accommodation offering and given the size of the site, there is scope to accommodate further development, subject to obtaining the necessary consents. There is a lack of comparable wedding venues in the locality in terms of acreage and the opportunity allows an incoming buyer a blank canvas in order develop a similar leisure-based business.
