Property code: OC-92635

An inviting stone cottage with a groomed laid-to lawn garden, ideally situated in the arty market town of Kirkbymoorside. This airy abode is a wonderful space for small families or couples and their pup seeking a restorative break in North Yorkshire. Duck into eclectic antique stores and independent craft shops as you stroll the charming streets of Kirkbymoorisde (within 100 metres). After working up an appetite, dig into an al fresco dinner spread on the paved patio surrounded by leafy shrubs and flowers.

This sleek property features a sophisticated country interior with rich champagne and cool sage tones, checked upholstered furnishings, and airy indoor-outdoor living. Step along the garden path then towel down soggy paws and slip off shoes by the door. Pour an iced drink and potter in the calming kitchen as you cook up a simple supper. Congregate around the wooden dining table and dish out a tempting spread.

After dinner, rustle up something sweet then retire to the light-flooded lounge. Sink onto the armchair and rest up weary legs on the ottoman or stretch out on the sofa to watch a film on the Smart TV. Slide open the striking patio doors to bask in the warm summer breeze or chase away the chill in cooler months with the wood burner-effect electric fire.

Ascend the staircase to find two tastefully styled bedrooms, consisting of an opulent king-size and a cosy twin – each with plump throw pillows and coordinated soft furnishings. Outside, little ones and four-pawed family members can roam free on the enclosed lawn while you recline on the patio with a book. For nature lovers, stash away outdoor gear in the handy shed.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 king-size, 1 twin
  • 1 bathroom with shower over the bath, and WC
  • Electric hob/oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and microwave
  • Smart TV and built-in DVD
  • Garden with patio and outdoor furniture
  • Secure bike storage
  • Private parking for 1 car (not suitable for low vehicles due to gradient -on street parking available)
  • Pub and shop within 0.5 miles

Pick this property - if youre looking for a holiday cottage ideally located for seeing all the major sites/ sights of the North Yorkshire National Park. Pick this property - if you appreciate an owner with an eye for interior design and excellent standards of cleanliness. Above all, pick this property if youre bringing doggy companions - the secureRead more garden inbetween the cottage and private parking space was invaluable as a space for everyone to enjoy.

We loved this cottage! It's really nice, one of the nicest we've ever stayed in. It's a great location, Kirkbymoorside is really nice, would recommend the pizza place, Coop and Chinese. The two lounges were perfect, we had one for kids and one for adults. Loads of room in the bedroom, shower and bath were decent, kitchen well equipped. It was handyRead more having the shed for bikes. We didn't find the road busy or the parking area an issue. And most importantly for the teenager - wifi was good! Hide
