Stride out across the verdant North Yorkshire moors from this exquisite retreat near Church Houses in Farndale. Sleeping four guests, the gorgeous, converted stable offers both rustic charm and exceptional style from its picturesque position, 8.5 miles from Kirkbymoorside. Encompassing beautiful, single-storey accommodation, and welcoming four-legged friends, it makes a great choice for both dog-loving couples and small families keen to immerse themselves in nature while enjoying exceptional comfort.

Wander inside to find yourselves in light-filled, open-plan accommodation. The lounge/kitchen/diner features exposed stone walls, beautiful beams, vaulted ceilings and flagstone floors. Return from long walks and cycle rides to relax in this lovely space, where you can watch TV, play games and cook up delicious meals with the local Yorkshire produce you can source on your excursions. The country-style kitchen has everything you need to help you in your endeavours and there is ample space for everyone to spread out. At the end of each busy day, treat yourselves to a good night’s sleep in one of the two bedrooms. These include a king-size bedroom and a double, each with the same charming character as the rest of the cottage and with a TV for lazy mornings in bed. There is also a family shower room. Sit outside in your lawned garden on warm days. Have lunch and dinner out in the fresh air as you absorb the panoramic views and watch for birds and other wildlife.

Pull on your walking boots, pack a sandwich or two and venture straight out across the rolling dales. Head into Kirkbymoorside to stock up on local produce or enjoy a meal out in a friendly Yorkshire pub. Plan a day trip to Whitby, 22.5 miles away, to spend time on the beach and climb up to the abbey ruins.

A really beautiful cottage in a picturesque setting. We spent 2 lovely weeks in The Stables, and we will definitely be returning. The Feversham Arms opposite produces very tasty homemade food. Just what we needed after a long walk.

Great location, lovely accommodation and great proximity to a lovely friendly pub with good food. WiFi was almost there but given where you are it's sort of obvious as is absolutely no phone signal. Our only issue (and it a personal preference thing) was the sofa was way too low, nothing a few cushions can't sort. I'm sure we'll return again.

Spotlessly clean, well located for the North Yorks Moors and coast and a friendly pub within 10 yards of the property. Perfect for a dog friendly holiday.

A very enjoyable week spent at the cottage - we were very lucky with the weather which makes a huge difference. The location of the property is amazing and easy access to most areas of interest - plenty of parking which is always useful and a welcome hamper with the essentials which after a long drive is appreciated. There is a pub a very short disRead moretance from the property which was very handy but a little disappointing if being honest and much nicer pubs within easy driving distance.. Hide
