A handy utility room houses a washing machine and tumble dryer, perfect for those longer stays. When sleep calls, move through the property to discover a spacious king-size bedroom, which can be converted into a twin room upon request, ideal for those with limited mobility, while upstairs awaits two bedrooms, including a double and a twin, both with en-suite walk-in showers. Outside, the enclosed rear garden offers a tranquil space to relax and unwind. With a patio area, lawn and outdoor furniture, you can enjoy alfresco dining on warm summer evenings. The addition of a barbecue makes this the perfect spot for a family cookout. Escape the confines of the cottage and venture out into the cultural hub of Glaisdale, offering a shop to pick up the essentials, and a local pub for some tasty pub grub. On your doorstep, discover the wonders of the North York Moors National Park, where you can explore the fascinating Museum of Victorian Science, visit the ancient Simon Howe Stone Circle, and marvel at the natural beauty of the National Trust site of Bridestones, Crosscliff & Blakey Topping. A short drive will bring you to the seaside town of Whitby. Ascend the famous 199 Steps to the remarkable ruin of Whitby Abbey, offering panoramic views across the seaside town and beyond. Immerse yourself in the town's rich history at Whitby Museum and the notable Captain Cook Memorial Museum, both revealing tales of the past in captivating exhibits. Make a trip to the Whitby Beach Huts for a traditional British seaside experience and an unforgettable coastal view. For dining, delight in the offerings at the local favourite Arncliffe Arms which is moments away, serving a selection of treasured British classics.

A peaceful village on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, Glaisdale is set amongst beautiful countryside in the heart of the Esk Valley. The village itself has a post office in the general store, an excellent butcher (famed for his pork pies) and one hotel/pub, with restaurant. Further afield, Whitby and the coast are just 9 miles away whilst the quaint moorland villages of Hutton-le-Hole, Lastingham and Thornton Dale and the market town of Pickering are all within easy touring distance. For something a little quieter, why not take a trip to the less-discover gem of Saltburn by the Sea, a charming, Victorian seaside resort. The terminus of the North York Moors Railway is at nearby Grosmont, inviting you to take a steam railway ride back in history through beautiful moorland scenery.
