Looking out onto a beautiful moors' village, this property is a gorgeous stone-built cottage housing accommodation over three floors. With its country-chic interiors, picture-postcard location and views of the North York Moors beyond the garden fence, it's an idyllic country retreat for couples and young families alike.

The interior of this holiday home is classic country, with all of the contemporary comforts thrown in. The character of the building has been preserved with exposed stonework, ceiling beams and aged timber/stone floors featured throughout.

Downstairs in this North York Moors cottage you'll find a cosy lounge with a wood burning stove and TV alongside a stunning farmhouse kitchen complete with Belfast sink, butcher's block, and flagstone flooring. Patio doors lead out to the garden giving the kitchen a sense of space and light. It also allows you to enjoy the views of the North York Moors over breakfast at your kitchen table.

There is a central hallway in the cottage with winding stairs leading up to the family bathroom and bedrooms above. There is also a convenient cloakroom down here.

The family bathroom has a lovely roll-top bath, perfect to sink into each evening and there is a separate stand-in shower. It has a bright, fresh look - just what you want in a country cottage bathroom.

The first of the bedrooms is a very sweet twin room with a white and blue theme. There is also ample room in here for a travel cot and this can be supplied if required. The master bedroom occupies the top floor. A lovely cosy room with seagrass flooring, a huge antique iron bed, luxury bed linen and exposed brickwork. A gorgeous room to retreat to after a busy day exploring.

To the rear of this luxury cottage there is a pretty patio area and lawned garden, a lovely spot for al fresco dining in the summer months with plenty of room for little ones to run around too.

We had a great week in Egton Cottage. A real "home from home" in a great village. Wonderful views from the garden and a fantastic pub over the road! We loved exploring the area - coast and moors - and ran out of days to do everything we wanted. We'll be back!

Egton cottage is beautiful. We felt so comfortable, cosy and immersed in the gorgeous North Yorkshire countryside. The location is perfect for short trips to other stunning places.

Lovely location, great pub opposite but property showing signs of wear and tear on plumbing and cooker. It's in danger of relying on location but slipping below the luxury level.

A lovely, cosy cottage is a great location to explore the Moors and coast. Two great pubs right on the doorstep and another with superb food in the neighbouring village. Robin Hood's Bay and the walk from Whitby to Sandsend with a great cafe at the end. Runswick is another great beach, but for a hidden gem try Skinningrove, approached via a housingRead more estate the beach is really lovely and far less busy than the others. Great to fire up the woodburner with a glass of wine after long dog walks. Hide

Nice cottage. Good location for exploring NYorks & the coast. Generous welcome pack. Spotlessly clean and well equipped. 2 excellent dog friendly pub/restaurants within 50 yards & another a mile down the (steep) hill. The back garden is genuinely secure & would be a nice place to relax with a glass (though not in the wall to wall rain we had!).

The cottage is well positioned opposite The Wheatsheaf and The Witching Post, both lovely dog friendly pubs. Lovely Hamper on our arrival. Double bed in the loft very comfortable however watch out for the low beams! No realistic hanging space for clothes in either bedroom but that wasn't a big problem for us. Some cleanliness issues which hopefullyRead more will be rectified for others in the future. Needed to light the fire most nights due to the weather & the cottage soon became lovely & warm. Hide
