Linton is, possibly, the most beautiful village in the Dales. It has an active community, a popular pub, the beautiful green with Captain’s beck running through it, a natural adventure playground for children to explore. Within a short walk from the village there are excellent primary schools, a secondary school rated as Outstanding, and there is good transport to the grammar schools of Skipton. For commuters Skipton is just 15 minutes’ drive with connections to Leeds and Bradford, and a direct train to London.
Manor House is set on the edge of the village and benefits from a southerly aspect garden, off street parking, gigabit internet access, PV solar panels and excellent neighbours.
The oldest part of the house was built around 1600. In the 1990’s a substantial refurbishment was undertaken and the house was further extended in 2009 with the addition of a large garden room.
