Small families looking for a base in the heart of the North Yorkshire countryside will lap up this perfect cottage full of country charm with a great mature garden that kids and dogs will love.
The welcoming lounge with exposed beams is just the place to kick back after long days out walking and exploring, with a cosy wood burner and plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Get a board game out or curl up in a chair each with your books and enjoy some quiet time. Sit at the table in the kitchen for dinner, and get planning for the days ahead, before retiring upstairs to the gorgeous bedrooms in the eaves with their low-level windows and views over the pretty gardens. If the weather is kind, sit out after dinner and catch the last of the sunshine while the children play in the summer house.
There are ample walks from the door in the North Yorks Moors, and it’s a mile up the road to the village of Osmotherly which has three local pubs. Take a walk around Cod Beck Reservoir, 2.5 miles from the house, or visit the beautiful ruins of Mount Grace Priory, 3 miles away. Head to the coast and explore Saltburn-by-the-Sea, 26 miles away, for fish and chips on the beach and a walk on the pier - or for a real treat, take the kids to Yorkshire’s famous Flamingo Land, 38 miles from the house, to ride the rollercoasters and visit the zoo.
