About this property

Tucked away on the edge of Goathland village, is this delightful detached bungalow. Ideally placed for exploring the spectacular surrounding scenery of the North York Moors and the dramatic coastline, it provides a peaceful haven, where sheep wander freely along the country lanes and on the hills. Beautifully renovated to the highest of standards, it feels warm and welcoming, with an open-plan living area, incorporating a modern kitchen with a handy breakfast bar and a cosy sitting area with an 'electric' woodburning stove for ambience. The two bedrooms lead off from the sitting room, both with their own contemporary en-suites and with quality beds and linens. Tastefully furnished throughout, this inviting property ensures that you have a wonderful and comfortable stay. Outside, a sunny patio and garden is the perfect spot to sit and relax with a morning coffee, before heading out for the day. A ten-minute stroll brings you into the centre of the village with its local inns and shops. A walker’s paradise, with an excellent network of public footpaths, shared by sheep that wander along with you! Enjoy a walk along the Rail Trail to nearby Beckhole, taking in the Mallyan Spout waterfall and the North York Moors Steam Railway, or follow the beck further, as it winds its way through the valley to Grosmont. A short drive brings you to the historic seaside town of Whitby, with its long sandy beaches, narrow cobbled streets and majestic abbey perched high on the clifftop, reached by 199 ancient steps. With quaint tea rooms, independent shops and a good choice of restaurants, cafes and renowned fish and chips, it offers something for everyone. Whether you want a quiet break or a family holiday close to the coast, this charming cottage will fit the bill!

Goathland is set on the north eastern edge of the North York Moors National Park, surrounded by excellent walking country. The village has been popularised by the television programme Heartbeat. At the bottom of the village lies the station for the famous North York Moors Steam Railway. Here you can catch a train to Whitby or Pickering and relax as it winds its way through the moors. Goathland is within easy reach of the East Coast towns of Whitby, Staithes, Robin Hoods Bay and Scarborough.
