Set on the very edge of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park, an idyllic rural haven, the cottage enjoys an impressive position set amidst rolling countryside bursting with character.

The beautiful village of Thornton-Le-Dale lies just 2 miles to the east of Pickering within the North York Moors National Park and the Dalby Forest. This is an idyllic location that's a walker's, biker's and nature lover's paradise. Attractions within the surrounding area include Flamingo Land Resort, which promises a fun-filled day out, and the history properties of Pickering Castle and Castle Howard are a great way to immerse yourself in the local history. Also, the property is perfectly located to explore the popular market towns of Helmsley, Malton and Pickering or to take a trip on North Yorkshire Heritage Steam Railway for a stunning journey across the moors to the bustling coastal town of Whitby.

Step inside and feel instantly welcomed; make your way into the stylish and spacious kitchen/diner with plenty of room to make a home-cooked meal. The kitchen has everything you need including an electric oven and gas hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and wine cooler. Enjoy your meals together at the dining table as you mull over the day’s events. After dinner, head to the lounge with a wood burner at its heart, light the fire and snuggle down on the sofa, turn on the Smart TV and pick a film to watch on Netflix. You'll can also step up into a ground-floor handy utility/boot room which provides plenty of space for outdoor gear, wellies and walking boots, includes a washing machine and tumble dryer, from here you can step up into a shower room with a shower and WC. On one side of the cottage is a staircase that leads you up to a single bedroom; a second staircase takes you to the final two bedrooms: step up in to a king-size and super-king-size zip-and-link (which can be made into a twin on request). Completing this floor is the bathroom with a bath, separate shower and WC.

A door from the lounge leads out to the fully enclosed country-cottage garden, filled with colourful flowerbeds.

Dale Cottage was a wonderful place to stay! Great communication with Debbie, pre-visit information provided and on arrival a lovely welcome box (including dog biscuits!) and a folder/ leaflets of useful local information. The cottage itself was beautiful; clean with modernly decorated rooms, comfortable beds and all the commodities needed. The gardRead moreen was a good size and enclosed which was great for the dog. The area of Thorton-le-Dale is very lovely with lots of great walks and quaint shops. Hide

Immaculate and very comfortable cottage in a great location. Highly recommended. Some recent reviews have mentioned the overgrown garden however when we arrived a lot of clearance work had been done and its a very pleasant, enclosed garden. The only thing I have not seen mentioned is that the garden area is raised up some steps and there is an unfeRead morenced drop of about 5 feet backing onto a concrete path at the back of the cottage. Not for unattended young children. Hide

As already stated the cottage was fine, but our disappointment was the garden. The pictures on the website showed a very attractive and well cared for rear garden.

Lovely, well presented cottage ; very comfortable and clean. Location is excellent for visiting both the North Yorkshire moors and the coast. We didnt use the third bedroom but if a young child were to use it it is the other side of the house to the main bedrooms and living room so a child would not be heard easily.
