This beautiful cottage on the outskirts of the popular village of Goathland is ideal for a couple looking for a peaceful holiday surrounded by countryside views. The Harry Potter films used Goathland Railway Station as the location for Hogsmeade Railway Station. The station has a steam train making journeys to and from Whitby across the North York Moors. Walkers will love all the accessible trails and the natural beauty of the Mallyan Spout Waterfall (a 3-mile circular route from Goathland).
This stylish two-storey property has elegant decor and soothing light tones. There is a step up to the main entrance; once inside, downstairs is a kitchen/diner with all the appliances you need, and a bay window floods the room with light. The spacious lounge has a step to access it, after which you can relax on the two-seater sofa and watch the Smart TV while the logs crackle in the wood burner during cooler months. From the lounge, a door leads out to the patio and stairs lead to the first floor. Upstairs are two bedrooms - one single bed and one double. Access to the shower room is via the double bedroom. Outside is a decked area and a front patio with a table and chairs to enjoy a morning brew.
It is a ten-mile drive to the seaside town of Whitby, where you can walk along the beach and cliff tops and indulge in freshly caught seafood. For the choice to mountain bike or walk, National Trust - Bridestones, Crosscliff & Blakey Topping (9 miles) is a must, with plenty of trails for both activities and some spectacular views. If you want to mix history with breathtaking views, then Danby Beacon (14 miles) will tick the boxes - check if they are lighting the historic beacon!
