The estate - which covers 15,000 acres in North Yorkshire - is helping local residents and businesses thrive
The Lickerish Tooth distillery at Lythe which is based in one of the Mulgrave Estate buildings.
The area under the Estate has, as well as 45 tenant farmers, private and commercial businesses running from its properties. They include local pubs, two village shops, a hotel, an art studio, a camp site, outdoor education and recreation centre, a distillery, cafe, printer, and one of the oldest and most prestigious piano makers which has a Royal warrant.
"There is a nice story in all of that”, explains Mr Childerhouse who himself lives within the estate parameters after re-location from Norfolk to take the job with his family six years ago. The shop had been closed for some time prior to being re-opened. It is run by volunteers and stocks bakery and meat produce from the hugely popular Whitby bakery family, Botham’s and local butcher Radford’s.
Mulgrave has 13 holiday cottages which it runs across its estate, it is simple business sense to do so in what is one of the most popular destinations in the country.Prior to Mr Childerhouse’s arrival several properties had been left empty for decades. Maybe the tenant farmer died, retired, or moved on but in some cases nothing happened next and in some cases tenants are in unsuitable properties that no longer match their needs.
Houses are leased on longer term contracts with a local connection required. They are strictly not let as second homes.
