Located just outside the Howardian Hills National Landscape, this gorgeous holiday escape is just right for a couple or small family. It’s set between the historic city of York, 13.5 miles, and Malton, the foodie capital of Yorkshire, 8.5 miles, making it the perfect choice for anyone who loves shopping and dining out. Tour the historic attractions of York, including the Minster, Shambles Market, City Walls and National Railway Museum, or take the little ones to Flamingo Land, 15.5 miles, or Woldies, 14.5 miles, with its nature garden, trails and outdoor play areas. Visit the charming market towns of Pickering, Kirkbymoorside and Helmsley, all within 22 miles, or head into the countryside and explore incredible scenery that includes unspoilt hills, valleys, woodland and rolling countryside. For an impressive historic house, extensive gardens, playground, cafes, shops and garden centre, award-winning Castle Howard is 9.5 miles.
The charming cottage is decorated in soft, neutral tones to reflect the natural beauty that surrounds it and create a calm and relaxing atmosphere. From the hall, step into the impressive kitchen/diner, which has a high ceiling with original beams and a skylight. It’s fully equipped to cook delicious meals, with a large fridge/freezer and a dishwasher for convenience. The welcoming lounge features a huge inglenook fireplace with an open fire – the perfect addition to a cosy winter’s evening. Once you’ve got comfortable in the soft seating, pick up a good book, play a board game or finish watching your must-see series on the Smart TV. At bedtime, head upstairs to find the two appealing bedrooms, a king-size and a compact twin, both with some areas of sloping ceilings. They share a fabulous shower room with beautifully patterned floor tiles and a large, walk-in shower.
When fresh air and outdoor fun beckons, step out onto your private patio, which is equipped with rattan outdoor furniture. You’ll have private parking for two cars.
