South Gowland is a truly idyllic cottage with panoramic views in all directions which take in the best of the North Yorkshire countryside. The property as a whole is the ideal lifestyle package, with huge appeal to both equestrian and small holding markets as well as those buyers just keen for their own slice of the good life.

Set in the North York Moors National Park, this registered small holding has a range of useful outbuildings and land extending to 5.84 acres or thereabouts.

It is a well appointed and characterful four bedroom detached rural cottage of stone construction under a slate roof, with cast iron guttering and downpipes. uPVC double glazed windows and doors.
