Rustle up home-cooked meals in the spacious kitchen/diner, with a rustic dining table and sleek wooden cabinets, along with contemporary comforts such as a wall-mounted TV to watch your favourite shows, as well as an electric double oven, built-in microwave and dishwasher. Curl up with your holiday book in the adjoining snug with an inviting leather sofa and a large window bringing in plenty of light, looking onto the beautiful garden area. A larger, welcoming sitting room awaits to spend quality time with your loved ones; host a movie marathon on the Smart TV in this charming cottage setting, with delightful furnishings, hard wooden floors and a woodburning stove to gently warm the room. Freshen up in the handy cloakroom before stepping outside this picturesque property. On sunnier days, why not make dinner an alfresco affair in the spacious outdoor area? Set the table and chairs or roll a blanket out on the lawn for a picnic to make the most of your idyllic surroundings. As day turns to dusk, retreat inside to the warmth of one of four beautifully-finished bedrooms; a large king-size features rustic furnishings and an en-suite shower room, along with another king-size hosting an en-suite shower room, and two further doubles. Run a hot bubble bath to soak tired legs in the family bathroom, whilst your towel warms on the heated towel rail for added comfort, or enjoy a quick rinse with the overhead shower to kick-start your day. Dine out in the nearby Sun Inn, a vibrant pub serving traditional meals in the quiet village of Normanby. Take a short journey into Pickering, a historic market town with plenty of amenities, shops and eateries to choose from; the whole family will relish a ride on the North Yorkshire Moors Steam Railway through glorious countryside to Whitby, whilst the centre offers Beck Isle Museum and Pickering Millennium Wood. Wander the cobbled high street of Kirkbymoorside lined with quaint coffee shops, or soak up the local heritage in Helmsley, home to a fantastic arts centre and the 900 year-old castle for guided tours. Jump in the car and drive south to the city of York, bursting with curious alleyways, high streets and a variety of eateries; stroll along the walls to admire the architecture, find the perfect souvenir down The Shambles or discover the sights and sounds of a reconstructed Viking village at JORVIK Viking Centre. For those craving a coastal escape, the seaside town of Whitby is a short drive north to laze along the sand, swim in the sea and admire the ruins of Whitby Abbey. An abundance of historic sites, breath-taking views and charming villages are waiting to be discovered in the North York Moors within easy reach. Gather your loved ones for a memorable holiday at Yew Tree Barn.

Pickering serves as the official entry to the picturesque North York Moors National Park, home to the Heartbeat countryside, with its complete range of services and traditional shops, cafés, pubs, and restaurants.

The Beck Isle Museum, with its unusual collection of black and white photos and displays of rural life, is also well worth a visit.
