Property code: OC-82543

With so much to see and explore close to home, this pretty abode is great for small families and their trusty four-pawed sidekick. Before tucking into a meal in one of the local pubs, enjoy a day in Scarborough (10.5 miles) or stick chasing in Dalby Forest (7.5 miles) for family-friendly fun. Back home, relax inside or out on the sun-trap patio.

Watch out for the low lintel as you step inside this charming home. The contemporary kitchen boasts simple style and has plenty of room for cooking. The handy washing machine is great post-beach day and is a useful addition when holidaying with a canine companion who is fond of the sand and sea! After dining at the table, enjoy tipples on the patio or avoid getting chilly and curl up on the comfortable sofas with your pup at your feet. Switch on the Smart TV for some entertainment and put your favourite film. When it’s time to say goodnight, ascend the stairs to the first floor where two bedrooms await. There is a lovely king-size with a large window and a small double which can be made up as 2’6” twin beds on request and is great for younger guests. There is on-road parking and bike storage.

Pack your bags and head to Cayton Beach (9.5 miles) for the day. Welcoming dogs all year round and great for surfers, it’s a top destination for summer days on the sand. Enjoy a woodland adventure at Dalby Forest (7.5 miles) where there are sticks galore to chase and chew and Go Ape! for keeping the brave among you entertained.

Beautiful cosy cottage in quiet location but in easy reach to many places. It was well equipped with everything you need and had lots of added extras. This was the best holiday cottage I have stayed in.

Really enjoyed our stay at Joby Barn. We love the Yorkshire moors and coast and this is a good base to discover it all. The barn is comfy and has everything you need and more. The information provided and communication from the owner was first class and so was the welcome pack too. Really glad we booked Joby Barn and would love to go back again.

Great holiday let very clean and in a nice area. There is nothing really to improve on apart from all I could think a cheese grater would have been handy. Lovely welcome pack even left baby wipes in the highchair the owner goes above and beyond.

Joby Barn was fabulous with everything we required and because Joby Cottage wasnt booked we could also enjoy the extra outside area which included a tranquil pond with beautiful cottage plants. A perfect relaxing holiday!

Lovely cosy barn conversion in a good location for exploring both the coast and moors of North East Yorkshire. The barn is in a very quiet road with a charming sunny courtyard. We had a lovely week enjoying the peace and listening to bird song in the morning.

Lovely little cottage. It was very tastefully decorated, very clean and comfortable and had everything you need. In a very quiet little village that had good walks locally. We had a relaxing time visiting the North yorkshire railway, Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay.

Joby Barn was fantastic- comfortable, well laid out and absolutely immaculate especially for a pet friendly accommodation. The owners were in touch prior and provided all we needed to know and some advice for the local area. Snainton where it is situated is lovely and an ideal location for travel. Thanks for a great holiday.
