Guests say

Silver Birches is consistently praised for its peaceful and beautiful location, comfort, and cleanliness. Guests enjoy the wildlife, the views, and the well-maintained garden, finding it ideal for both relaxation and walking. The cottage is described as homely, well-equipped, and comfortable, with an open fire adding to the charm. The hosts are noted for their friendliness and helpfulness.

Reviews frequently mention the cottage being spotlessly clean, indicating a high level of cleanliness that contributes to the overall positive experience of the guests.

The location is highly praised for its tranquillity, stunning views, and proximity to walking areas and local attractions, making it an idyllic rural retreat.

Guests find the cottage very comfortable, with comfortable beds and a cosy atmosphere enhanced by an open fire, although one review mentioned a slight issue with shower pressure.

The property is described as well-equipped and maintained, with good quality crockery and a lovely garden. One minor criticism regarding shower pressure prevents a perfect score.

While guests express appreciation for the personal touches and the hosts' helpfulness, there is no specific mention of gifts, so it is not possible to assess thoughtfulness in this context.

About this property

Glaisdale 3 miles. Surrounded by countryside in the North York Moors is this charming, detached, single-storey cottage, Silver Birches. Offering a family of four extensive shared grounds to explore, this pet-friendly cottage has off-road parking, ground-floor living, and everything you need for a self-catering stay, plus spectacular sights and walks on your doorstep. Make yourself at home in the kitchen/diner, equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher for easy clean-ups. You'll have no problem preparing your favourite meals, to be served at the table for four, or outside you'll find outdoor seating to make the most of your beautiful surroundings; why not plan dinner on the barbecue on summer evenings? After busy days trekking the Moors, throw your gear into the washing machine and unwind in the contemporary bathroom, complete with stylish grey tones, a bath, and walk-in shower.

Gather in the spacious sitting room with cushioned seats to admire the high ceiling and original character, whilst the open fire gently crackles and your favourite show plays on the TV. Find your refuge in one of two bedrooms, a double with exposed wooden beams and a twin, both thoughtfully furnished with storage spaces, artwork, and bedside lamps. For your North York Moors home from home, book a stay at Silver Birches.

Glaisdale is a tranquil village on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, near the Esk Valley. The settlement contains a post office, a butcher (famous for pork pies) and a hotel/pub with restaurant. Whitby and the shore are 9 miles away, as are the charming moorland villages of Hutton-le-Hole, Lastingham and Thornton Dale, as well as the market town of Pickering. For something a little more sedate, visit Saltburn by the Sea, a beautiful Victorian beach resort. The North York Moors Railway ends at Grosmont, where you can take a steam train trip amid beautiful moorland landscape.

    Peaceful location. Clean and tidy. Great for walkers.

  • Stephen

    The only slight niggle would be the shower lacks a bit of power. I realise this would be difficult as it's fed from a local source & it's fairly remote location.

  • Lorna

    Everything you needed was available. Footpaths straight from the door couldn’t have asked for anything better. Even the weather was good for us.
