DESCRIPTION

Heron's Pond is situated in an idyllic location on the outskirts of the village of Crakehall, just two miles from , being the gateway to Wensleydale and the near distant Yorkshire Dales National Parks. It truly is a very unique property with a detached bungalow, beautiful gardens, six acre of grassland meadows, established pond and successful tourist caravan park. It is a fantastic lifestyle business situated in a private and tranquil setting whilst conveniently being only a short drive from the A1.

The village of Crakehall is a ten minute walk from the property. There is a village shop/ petrol station, pub and church. The nearby market towns of Bedale and Leyburn provide an array of shops, restaurants, schools and doctors. Heron's Pond Caravan Park is an ideal location from which the visitors can explore the whole of the Yorkshire Dales.

The detached bungalow is positioned at the end of a private gravelled drive separate from the caravan site. It has magnificent views in all directions. It provides spacious accommodation with large kitchen/utility area, office, sitting room, dining room and conservatory. It has 3 double bedrooms. The master bedroom has an en- suite shower room. There is also a house bathroom and two separate WCs. It is double glazed throughout and benefits from oil central heating.

The bungalow is surrounded by beautiful gardens. To the front a south facing decking area and patio leads to a beautiful established garden and lawn which is a delightful array of colours in the summer months. It has spectacular views over the pond and open fields. There are further gardens to the side and rear of the property. There is also a large gated parking area, garage/workshop and a wood framed building which contains 3 rooms and is double glazed. This could easily be converted into a useful annex or holiday let, subject to relevant planning permissions.

Beyond the gardens of the bungalow there is an avenue of woodland on the southern and northern borders with a well maintained walk way which leads from the Caravan Park and 5.22 acres of four meadows. In the centre of the property there is a beautiful pond surrounded by natural grassland. It is a wildlife haven with a resident heron and a range of fish. The owners have frequently spotted an enviable range of birds including kingfishers and woodpeckers.

The caravan park has its own independent entrance which leads to a superb landscaped site with nine spacious all weather hard standing pitches, and a tenth in case of an emergency. There are lovely views over the pond. The site includes a well maintained shower and WC block, washing up area and chemical emptying facility. It is very successful and provides an ideal location for visitors to explore the Dales.
