Property code: OC-46583

A period cottage set in the village of Moorsholm just 10 miles from the fishing village of Staithes. An ideal base for walkers and cyclists, the dog-friendly cottage offers an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, a courtyard garden and easy access to cultural, historic and natural attractions across the North York Moors National Park and North Yorkshire Heritage Coast.

Talls will be wagging upon arrival at this two-storey cottage, which is situated on a quiet street surrounded by an eclectic mixture of properties. Its interior is quirky and cheerful, with natural light able to fill all corners of its bright and spacious rooms. After a day scampering across the moors, curl up with loved ones in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner for fortifying meals, film nights or just cuddles in front of the wood burner. An open staircase in the lounge leads up to an open-plan landing, from which a double bedroom, two single bedrooms and a shower room can be found only a few pawprints apart. The courtyard garden at the rear of the cottage is a real suntrap and a place for books, refreshments or a good old-fashioned dog nap.

The North York Moors National Park and North Yorkshire Heritage Coast offer endless activities for guests on two and four paws. Dogs will love exploring the streets and shorelines at Staithes (10 miles) as well as the bustling resorts of Whitby and Saltburn (within 16.5 miles). Dogs are welcome aboard the steam trains that puff their way along the North Yorkshire Moors Railway between Whitby and Pickering, taking in breathtaking scenery en route.

Lovely spot in a nice quiet village. Tina was a fantastic help with sorting out lots of helpful bits for our kids. Even pointed out the blackbird nest in the back yard with eggs hatching during our stay! Plenty of space, beds comfy, good shower, kitchen had everything we needed. Nice walks from the property and all locals were very friendly.

Had a very enjoyable stay in this lovely cottage. Located in a very pretty village on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors so lots of dog walks close by. Good access to the moors and the coast. Really good communications from Tina and Paul during our stay. Highly recommend!

We had a lovely week at Moordale Cottage and can recommend it as an ideal place to stay to explore the beautiful North York Moors. The information we received from the owners prior to and during our stay was very helpful, and the cottage had everything we needed for a perfect week. The welcome basket was an added bonus!
