Couples craving comfort, romance and a tranquil setting will adore this beautiful barn conversion set on the coastal fringes of the North York Moors National Park. Surrounded by dramatic scenery, this is the perfect base for embracing the great outdoors during your stay. Lace up your walking boots or hop on your bike to explore the winding country lanes, sweeping heather moorlands and ancient woodlands that characterise this stunning landscape. Visit Goathland (7.5 miles), a charming nearby village, and take a peaceful walk to Mallyan Spout Waterfall (8 miles) – the tallest in the area. Your nearest town, Whitby (2.5 miles), has plenty to offer, including a glorious sandy beach for summer days and striking architecture that’s sure to appeal to literature and history lovers alike. Discover the dramatic ruins of Whitby Abbey and climb its famous 199 steps or join a guided Dracula Tour through the town to uncover more about the area’s fascinating lore.

This bijou abode is compact yet cleverly laid out, offering open-plan living and a sociable space for two to enjoy together. Step into the lounge/kitchen/diner, a bright, welcoming room with French doors to one side. The kitchen offers essential appliances with a light-touch approach to cooking – an air fryer replaces the oven, perfect for preparing simple meals. A breakfast bar creates a spot for casual dining, while a comfortable love seat sofa invites you to snuggle up as evening falls. An electric flame effect fire adds charm, and a Smart TV provides entertainment at the end of the day. Next door, your double bedroom awaits. This thoughtfully decorated room is furnished with soft, light linens and includes complimentary toiletries for each guest. An en-suite shower room completes the interior.

Step outside through the French doors to discover a small, private seating area designed for two. Perfect for enjoying morning coffee or an evening sundowner, this outdoor space is a lovely addition for sunny stays. Private parking for one car is also provided just outside.

Great location and lovely walks straight from the property. Very quiet, yet handy for the Park and Ride into Whitby.
