Cherry Garth is a lovely, spacious home with beams and wood burning stove, while at the same time providing a thoroughly modern kitchen and bathroom, just what you need for the perfect holiday stay.  Cherry Garth is situated in Sleights on the edge of the North York Moors National Park and is close to the wonderful seaside town of Whitby which boasts the famous Abbey. This well-equipped cottage is light and airy and has a beautiful patio and garden boasting open views. The beamed living room has a wood burning stove to cosy up in front of on those chilly winter evenings after a day out sightseeing and the kitchen is well equipped and has everything you need to prepare a home cooked meal.

This lovely cottage would make an ideal retreat for families to enjoy the North York Moors and Whitby.  You are spoilt for choice in this area of Yorkshire.  Whatever your interests there is something for everyone, historic castles, even older abbeys, museums, farms, walking, cycling, superb local markets with the very best Yorkshire produce and of course restaurants and tea rooms too numerous to mention. Sleights is a very popular village and just a short walk away you will find the famed Botham's a family craft baker's for over 151 years, Radfords butcher's an award winning family run butcher's with locally sourced produce and a small but well stocked Spar shop.

Why we love this property: Great patio area with open views, woodburner to snuggle up in front of, only a short drive or train ride into historic Whitby and easy access to the North York Moors National Park for some great walks or cycle rides. Excellent links to Whitby by train or bus.

Great house in an ideal location for exploring the surrounding area. Rear garden was very secure for our dog and a proper sun trap. Nicely maintained. Lovely being able to sit outside at the outside table/chairs.

Nice and comfortable cottage. Beautiful surroundings, near bakery (nice for our kids, as they could go there on their own) and little supermarket, near trainstation and beach.

Overall a lovely stay, its a nice house with everything you need, great value and great location for exploring beaches, Whitby and the moors. The double mattresses could do with an update though as they were very soft!

I love the location and cosiness of this property. It has a lovely spacious feeling with a nice patio and garden. Big well equipped kitchen. We've stayed here 2 years running and would do again. Some areas need some work renovations but nothing serious. You can have a nice relaxing holiday here close to Whitby with lots of close amenities in the viRead morellage. Hide
