Nestled in the heart of the picturesque market town of Helmsley, this delightful cottage exudes charm and character, offering an ideal retreat for a family of outdoor enthusiasts to explore the North York Moors National Park. The stone walls hide a homely interior with a cracking open fire in the cosy lounge, and outside, a suntrap garden awaits al fresco dining moments.
Kick off your walking boots in the entrance hall before stepping into the spacious lounge/diner, where the warming open fire invites you to unwind in comfort. Sink into the plush furnishings and enjoy a relaxing evening in front of the Smart TV, or gather around the dining table for a hearty meal with loved ones. Children will love the additional seating area, perfect for playing games. The well-equipped kitchen, located at the rear of the cottage, boasts a charming country-style ambience and offers everything you need to prepare delicious meals. Upstairs, three inviting bedrooms await; a double, a twin and a single, providing comfortable sleeping arrangements for the whole family. A panelled shower room completes this charming home. Outside, the private, south-facing courtyard provides a tranquil spot to soak up the sunshine and enjoy a sun-downer or two.
Conveniently located just a 300-metre stroll from the bustling market square, the cottage provides easy access to Helmsley's array of independent shops, welcoming pubs, inviting tea rooms, and delightful restaurants. Take a leisurely wander through the town, perhaps stopping by the craft and food market on Fridays, or venture further afield to explore Duncombe Park stately home (1 mile), where you can enjoy a refreshing swim in the heated pool during the summer months. For outdoor enthusiasts, both the Cleveland Way and Ebor Way offer fantastic walking and cycling routes, leading you through stunning moorland scenery.
