Comfy well equipped cottage in a very quiet and unspoiled setting, in walking distance to three good pubs (as long as you don't mind a short walk) The owner is attentive and provided excellent local knowledge and advice. A very enjoyable stay.

I lovely clean/warm cottage in a quiet location in the beautiful North Yorkshire moors. My wife and I were able to go walking from the door. In the knowledge that when we returned, the barn would be clean, warm and dry. Not too far away were Staithes and Whitby , both worth a visit.

Great place and location for our bike rides. Walked Runswick Bay. Walked up the cliff at Saltburn By The Sea and came down on the funicular. Walked from Falling Foss to Littlebeck & back along the River Esk to cafe. Great meals at The Eskdale & Joplins in Great Ayton - fabulous fish restaurant. Rode over to Danby Beacon & Scaling Dam across moors.Read more Westerdale, Glaisdale, Fryupdale, Killdale, stunning views. Thoroughly enjoyed it all - shame it went so fast. Hide
