The spacious country-style kitchen is well equipped, with a dining area and additional comfy seating, whilst upstairs the double bedroom takes in the breathtaking views over the valley. To the front of this Rosedale Abbey cottage, is a long, lawned sunny garden, perfect for alfresco dining in warmer months. With an enviable network of public footpaths from the door, this Rosedale Abbey cottage is a walker’s paradise, whilst the bustling market towns of Kirkbymoorside, Pickering and Helmsley offer excellent restaurants, independent shops and quaint tea rooms. Why not visit the historic abbeys at Riveaulx and Byland, or take a trip back in time on the North York Moors Steam Railway. For golf enthusiasts, there are two excellent courses at Malton and Kirkbymoorside, whilst an easy drive brings you to the popular seaside towns of Whitby and Scarborough. A lovely Rosedale Abbey cottage for an enjoyable holiday.

Perfectly positioned for touring both the Moors and the Coast, the picturesque village of Rosedale Abbey is situated in the heart of the North York Moors National Park. Located in Rosedale, a beautiful valley of sweeping hillsides and breathtaking views, this lovely little settlement is surrounded by wonderful moorland countryside and offers walks in every direction. The village is home to the remains of a 12th Century Cistercian Priory - a stone pillar, staircase and sundial are all that remain, which gave the town its unusual name. The village is now largely made up of stone-built cottages clustered around the village green. Packed with local amenities such as shops, tearooms, an art gallery, a glass studio and three old country pubs, there is plenty to do without venturing to nearby Hutton-le-Hole, Ryedale and Kirkbymoorside.
