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.

A cosy & comfortable cottage with an amazing garden. Great communication from the owner and a lovely welcome hamper. The huge garden is so pretty with lots to explore. Fully enclosed -great for the dog. We loved the birdsong and watching baby bunnies on the far lawn. Beds were super comfy & lounge with wood burner was so cosy. Malton was a lovely tRead moreown to walk into and the cottage was in easy reach of Helmsley, N York Moors and East Coast towns. Hide

Dove cottage was wonderful. From the phone call before our visit introducing us to the area, the area information by email and the welcome basket of goodies on arrival. The garden was exquisite. What a gem of a house.
