Sleeping four, this beautifully finished cottage with a garden and summer house is a fantastic base for families with easy access to the North Yorkshire coast (within 24 miles) and countryside. You’ll be just a mile away from the border of the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty where you can explore its unique geology on a walk, or you can pay a visit to one of the picturesque villages such as Slingsby (6 miles) and Hovingham (8 miles).

The kitchen/diner is sleek and stylish with painted beams overhead and a light, bright feel. There is ample space to prepare a meal, with views out towards the garden providing a lovely backdrop to your time spent cooking whilst the rest of the family can gather around the dinner table. Next door, the spacious living room is simply charming with playful sofas and armchairs, as well as a relaxing wood burner for those chilly evenings. The master bedroom features a sumptuous king-size bed, surrounded by spa-like white decor and a large window framing a pretty view whilst the twin is similarly styled and ideally suited to children. Completing the property is the modern shower room featuring a revitalising double shower. At the rear of the property, you’ll find an enticing path leading out to the main garden, surrounded by a border filled with mature trees and shrubs. Tucked into the trees is a romantic summer house which is the perfect place to sit and soak up the atmosphere come rain or shine.

The village of Malton is known as a foodie hotspot, with an array of independent producers, a monthly market and a fantastic cookery school all enticing you in for tasty treats. Spend a day in Castle Howard and you’ll be able to take your pick from a wide array of activities, including whimsical walks through the Yorkshire Arboretum (6 miles) or Castle Howard Walled Garden (6 miles). Meanwhile, Scarborough lies 28 miles away, offering a fascinating trip to the seaside with its medieval castle and blissful beaches.

Great holiday cottage, well placed for exploring the area. Although on a busy road we didnt find it a problem with noise etc. It is a very comfortable and relaxing place to stay. The garden is really nice and is dog friendly with plenty of places for them to safely explore. Everything you could want for your stay is in the cottage including a good Read morewelcome and information pack. The owner was also great, friendly and very helpful. Our only negative is that we didn't book for a longer stay. Hide

Dove Cottage was a real find and an absolutely delightful place to spend a few days.

Beautiful cottage with a very generous welcome pack and really well equipped! Garden is a major attraction - a long narrow garden with surprises at each section and a lovely friendly horse in the field at the end.

Very comfortable well equipped cottage. The garden was fascinating and as we had good weather we took full advantage of it. Great dog walks just a cross the road and easy access to local attractions. The only negative was the road noise as the cottage is on a busy main road, but this did not spoil our stay..

Cottage is excellent. Our spaniel managed to get into neighbors garden by getting through behind the summer house but she really is a dedicated escape artist!! The neighbour was fine about it!

I cant recommend this cottage enough. It had everything we needed (and more). The garden is amazing and the area is perfect for dog walks. Dalby Forest and Sutton Bank are not far for those who like mountain biking and the nearest beach is around a 30 minute drive. The property was clean, well maintained and cosy.

Lovely old cottage with a beautiful garden. Very well equipped and a conscientious owner. Convenient for local transport but the traffic noise at the front made it difficult to sleep.
