Situated in the beautiful village of Kirby Knowle, on the borders of the North Yorkshire Moors and within the boundaries of the National Park, the village lies about 4 miles north-east of the picturesque market town of Thirsk, famous for its association with James Herriot and being, according to the Sunday Times one of the top 20 places to live in the UK.
