Close to the North York Moors National Park, this pretty riverside residence has a thriving high street on the doorstep. With charming cottage interiors and an outdoor terrace, it provides a peaceful retreat for three people and their pet.
Located alongside the tranquil River Leven, this delightful terraced cottage is a laid-back holiday base for a trio of friends, a couple or even a small family and their faithful companion. Warmth and comfort abound in the characterful lounge, where a wood burner and Smart TV set the scene for relaxing downtime. Adjacent, the modern kitchen is equipped with all the self-catering essentials along with a dining suite for congenial mealtimes. When it’s time to retire, settle the dog in his bed then move upstairs, where two bedrooms await – one has a spacious king-size bed and the other has a cosy single. The contemporary shower room close by is the perfect place to kick-start your next day’s adventures; after, you can discuss your plans over a cup of coffee on the courtyard-style terrace that’s just outside the kitchen.
Peppered with impressive Georgian and Victorian buildings, the elegant market town of Stokesley is a great base for exploring the North York Moors – the Cleveland Way and the Coast-to-Coast path are both within 6 miles, while Danby in the Esk Valley is 13.5 miles. The River Leven, crossed by an ancient Pack Horse Bridge, is ideal for strolls and picnics; don’t miss the spectacular views of Roseberry Topping and the North York Moors from the east end of town, where an ancient mill wheel can also be admired. Head into the national park for a longer hike, or let your pup perfect his doggie paddle while you saunter along the sands at Saltburn-by-the-Sea (15 miles).
