The North Yorkshire estates are part of the North York Moors national park and have both sites of special scientific interest and special areas of conservation.
They are a haven for wildlife and home to rare flora and fauna as well as having sites of historical interest and architectural heritage. There is extensive public access along public footpaths and bridleways with wonderful scenic views.
Environmental considerations are foremost and great care is taken to have a responsible stewardship and maintain the natural beauty of the environment. Landscape is sustainably managed with new mixed species hedge planting and continuous forestry cover which preserves bio diversity and habitats.

Heritage Area
The following heritage land has been designated by HMRC as conditionally exempt from capital tax due to its outstanding interest and national importance to the cultural life of this country.
In return, as owners of the land, we give undertakings that agreed reasonable steps are made for the maintenance, repair and preservation of the area and for allowing reasonable public access to it. All of the designated land benefits from a vast network of footpaths and bridleways, and all of the moorland has the additional benefit of being open access land, whereby it is not compulsory to follow the public rights of way for walking, running, watching wildlife and climbing.
