This rural bolthole enjoys a quiet setting on the edge of the North York Moors, just 3 miles from Whitby. The property sleeps four guests and one canine buddy and makes the perfect base for couples and small families seeking a holiday that combines both coast and countryside. Enjoy day trips to moorland towns and villages such as Pickering (23 miles) and Goathland (11 miles), or journey into Whitby or Robin Hood’s Bay (both within 3 miles) for a day by the sea.
The single-storey barn conversion carefully combines characterful original features with contemporary design and homely creature comforts. At the heart of the property is a spacious lounge/kitchen/diner with an impressive vaulted ceiling and striking exposed beams. Unwind here, with the pup curled at your feet, to watch the Smart TV or read a book. At one end of the room is a country-style kitchen with everything needed to cater for the group, along with a dining table to seat everyone. The property has two elegant bedrooms, one of which has direct access to outside. The double bedroom has an en-suite shower room and completing the accommodation is a stylish family bathroom. Outside, to the front of the property, is a charming seating area for enjoying a morning coffee or a sundowner on a balmy evening. There is ample private parking available.
The unspoilt fishing village of Robin Hood’s Bay makes a lovely doggy day out. Hunt for fossils on its dog-friendly, sandy beach, before grabbing a bite to eat in one of the friendly pubs or cafes. Follow the coast path from here into Whitby, where you’ll find a fantastic array of independent shops and eateries lining its cobbled streets. Whitby has several paw-friendly beaches to explore, as well as historic sites such as the atmospheric ruins of Whitby Abbey. Other nearby day trips include the charming village of Staithes (13 miles) and the seaside resort of Scarborough (16.5 miles).
