This fetching getaway tucked away between the North York Moors and the Yorkshire Dales in Borrowby provides the perfect setting for a memory-making break with family, friends and four-pawed pals.

This rustic cottage is brimming with traditional character, boasting exposed beams and original stonework that you’ll fall head over heels for. The roaring wood burner in the cosy lounge is sure to keep toes and paws toasty well into the evening, with another charming wood burner in the farmhouse-style kitchen/diner adding further warmth and character. When it’s time to pause from chasing your tail, there’s an en-suite king-size bedroom and a super-king-size bedroom (can be made up as a twin) on the ground floor on offer. You’ll also find a twin and en-suite single bedroom under the eaves on the first floor. The Barn offers another open-plan living space and three additional bedrooms, but please note that dogs are only allowed in The Cottage; The Barn does not accept dogs. Outside, the cottage’s tranquil, furnished outdoor space is perfect for soaking up some fresh air. There is private parking for two cars available across the two properties.

Your canine companion will have a ball exploring the steep streets and narrow lanes of the idyllic village of Borrowby by your side. Take the lead to Osmotherley, 7.5 miles away, which lies on the western edge of the North York Moors National Park, a great destination for walkers, lying on the long-distance Cleveland Way. Sniff out some of this area’s best local produce from the bustling market town of Thirsk, 5.5 miles away, home to a plethora of independent boutiques, artisan shops and a thriving market. From countryside to coast, treat your pup to an afternoon of bounding through the sand and shingle of the picturesque beach at Saltburn-by-the-Sea, 28.5 miles away.
