One of three properties in a pretty setting on the edge of a forest, this beautiful cottage makes a welcoming, family-friendly retreat. It’s ideally placed for walking, cycling, water sports and exploring the coast and wonderful attractions of North Yorkshire. It has two en-suite bedrooms, an enclosed patio and extensive shared gardens, and a cosy wood burner.
The homely cottage is light and spacious, designed with amazing attention to detail that combines original features and creature comforts. Step inside the welcoming lounge/diner with comfy sofas, a Smart TV/DVD, lots of light, wooden floors, and a dining table and chairs for four. The contemporary kitchen has everything you could need to self-cater and another seating area with a bench, seats, and a kitchen table. Go upstairs to bed in the two bedrooms: a spacious super-king-size zip-and-link with an en-suite shower room and a king-size bedroom with an en-suite bathroom – both rooms have exposed stone walls, hanging space, and plush soft furnishings. Head outside from the lounge to the sweet, enclosed patio where you can sit and enjoy drinks alfresco. Take a picnic to enjoy in the orchard, and potter around the rose garden.
