  • Many miles of spectacular scenery and many walking and cycle routes on the doorstep
Property code: OC-79521

Tucked away in a secluded spot in the corner of the North York Moors National Park, this exquisite property is the perfect rural retreat for families and couples. Surrounded by miles and miles of unbridled natural beauty and with the rugged, Yorkshire coastline within 12 miles, this property really does offer guests the very best of coast and country. Outdoor enthusiasts will be spoilt for choice when it comes to choosing a walking or cycling route, with plenty of walks from your doorstep and the Moor-to-Sea cycle network passing close by. The Woodland Trust’s Wykeham Forest is near to the property and is a well-known breeding ground for Honey Buzzards and Goshawks, so you could also venture up to nearby Raptor’s Viewpoint to catch a glimpse of these magnificent birds. Wykeham Lakes provides another lovely location for walks as well as a range of water-based activities. If you’re visiting with children, there are a host of attractions in the area, which everyone will love. Or perhaps you’d prefer a leisurely stroll around the independent shops and eateries of local towns such as Pickering, Scarborough or Filey.

 

If you’re looking for a unique property with the wow-factor, then this is the one for you. In keeping with its heritage, natural materials, such as stone, brick and wood are the stars of the show, with neutral tones and stylish furniture simply accentuating their natural beauty. High ceilings add to the sense of space and grandeur, whilst large windows allow light to flood in and create a light and airy feel throughout. There are beautiful views of the stunning gardens from all the rooms, making it a relaxing and idyllic place to stay.

 

On entering, you’ll find yourself in the bright and spacious kitchen/diner. Being triple aspect, natural light fills the room, making it a wonderful space for cooking and socialising together. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you’ll need to cater for you and your guests, with enough seating around the table for everyone.

Moving through into the lounge, you’ll appreciate the impressive size of the room. Vaulted ceilings add height, whilst large windows bring the outside in, adding to the sense of space. Exposed stone and brick walls add character, whilst comfortable sofas offer somewhere to snuggle down of an evening in front of the wood burner. Completing the ground floor is a relaxing super-king zip-and-link bedroom with an en-suite bathroom with a shower over the bath.

 

From the lounge, head upstairs to the second delightful bedroom: a spacious king-size room with an en-suite shower room.

Outside, guests have their own veranda for al fresco eating, morning coffees and evening drinks, with views of the garden and pond. There are two other properties at this location, and all guests are welcome to wander around the enclosed orchard and explore the mature, well-kept gardens. There is off-road parking for two cars.

Moor cottage was mazing, fantastic location, with an amazing outlook over rolling hills from the kichen / diner. The beds were very comfortable ensuring a good nights sleep every night. The showers are excellent, with very fine temperature control. The welcome pack was wonderful, and all the luxury toiletries were a very welcome surpise. We thorougRead morehly enjoyed our stay in Moor cottage, and will definitely come again, next time though, we will hopefully be coming for 2 weeks. The only down side to Moor cottage is it's at the other end of the country, and s 7 hour drive from home Hide

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property. Cosy, comfy, well equipped, great areas for the guests inside and out. Surrounded by fields and woods felt like we were in the middle of nowhere, but everything was close with a short drive. A lovely property to stay in.

Another lovely holiday at Wellspring cottages. Even though it was half term, it was very quiet and peaceful. The gardens are beautifully landscaped and also ideal for children as there are plenty of play areas. The cottages are well away from any other habitation and if seclusion is your thing, this is the place for you.
