The beautiful hamlet of Thorpe dates back over 1000 years and is located approximately two miles south of the "Yorkshire Dales capital" village of Grassington. Thorpe is a highly admired formation of individual prestigious properties, some of which date back to the sixteenth and seventeenth century, with a manicured green and a beck in its centre. The hamlet has a timeless quality that is difficult to replicate, and those lucky enough to live in this exclusive community enjoy a peaceful rural setting with truly superb fell and countryside walks virtually on the doorstep.

The popular Yorkshire Dales villages of Grassington and Threshfield are only approximately a ten minutes’ drive away. The villages combined provide a good range of local amenities including primary and secondary schooling, public house, extensive range of shops and restaurants in Grassington and delightful rural walks along the banks of the River Wharfe.

The historic market town of Skipton, known as the 'Gateway to the Dales', is only circa nine miles away to the south whilst the business centres of West Yorkshire and East Lancashire are within comfortable daily commuting distance.
