This three-bedroom cottage, nestled within North Yorkshire’s countryside, features high-level furnishings and level access throughout the ground floor and is a sanctuary for country and coastal explorers. Once one of the busiest fishing ports on the north-east coast, the seaside fishing village of Staithes, 2 miles away, is made up of intricate cobbled alleys and ginnels, and is even home to the narrowest alley in the world at just eighteen inches wide. Explore the 17th-century house featuring the Captain Cook Memorial Museum 12 miles away, the former home to famous Royal Navy captain and explorer Captain James Cook. Meander along part of The Cleveland Way National Trail (11.5 miles), 190-mile trail from Helmsley to Filey, and enjoy the rugged but beautiful North Yorkshire coastline. Discover sea creatures aplenty 1.5 miles away by rock pooling at the harbour on the small sandy beach.

A modern kitchen occupies the front of the property, kitted out with everything to cater, featuring beautiful granite worktops throughout and a handy small island for socialising or food preparation.
