Environs
Sutton-on-the-Forest lies just 8 miles north of York which is easily accessible by the regular Reliance bus service. The retail and other businesses on the northern ring road are even closer and York station runs trains to London Kings Cross twice hourly. The village bears all the hallmarks of an old Estate village, well tended and unspoiled, and has for long been a favourite.
The village primary school (rated “Good” by Ofsted, with some “Outstanding” elements) is adjacent to the house, and pupils progress to Easingwold Comprehensive. Private schools abound in York. Neighbouring Stillington has a post office and surgery.
