Ruswarp cottages
Close to the North Yorkshire coastal town of Whitby, pretty Ruswarp has a welcoming village vibe, scenic views and all the essentials for a fuss-free self-catering holiday. Sitting within the scenic Esk Valley and on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, Ruswarp’s local conveniences include a butcher, grocery store, bakery and welcoming village pub. A charming selection of stone cottages, a historic railway station, a primary school and a parish church add to the sense of community. Running through the heart of the village, the River Esk is a focus for family fun. Hire a row boat, try your hand at fly fishing or head downriver to the stunning Larpool Viaduct which forms part of the Cinder Track – a traffic-free walking and cycling route that hugs the Heritage Coast.
No holiday on the North Yorkshire Heritage Coast is complete without a wander around Whitby. You’ll get a glimpse of the iconic abbey ruins from the Viaduct at Ruswarp – the town’s heritage-rich harbour is less than 2 miles away. Ensuring fun for all the family, Whitby’s gothic yards and cobbled streets are complemented by traditional seaside amusements and beaches, some of which are dog-friendly all year. Head inland instead, and the village of Sleights sits on the steep-sided valley bordering the River Esk. For fuss-free sightseeing, the Esk Valley Railway connects Whitby to Middlesbrough, with stations at Ruswarp, Sleights and several within the North York Moors National Park. Choose from our range of Ruswarp holiday cottages and find your perfect self-catering holiday.
