The Ness

About this property

The Ness is a quaint cottage resting in the countryside near Glaisdale, North Yorkshire, within the spectacular North York Moors National Park. Brimming with character through its wooden beams and ambient woodburning stove, this rural retreat enjoys countryside views and makes a romantic escape for couples or an inviting base for a small family, with one well-behaved pet also welcome. Step inside and make your way to the kitchen, where you’ll find everything needed for your self-catered stay, including an oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. Rustle up your favourite dishes here before gathering together in the living/dining room, where characterful wooden beams complement the cottage setting. After dinner, light the woodburning stove and settle down in its glow, catching up with your favourite shows on the TV or simply planning the next day’s adventures through the surrounding dales. When the weather allows, take your drinks outdoors to the enclosed rear garden, furnished so you can sit back and admire the countryside setting. As the evening draws to a close, choose between two bedrooms, comprising a double for couples and a twin that is ideal for younger guests or friends sharing. In the morning, freshen up in the ground-floor bathroom, where a free-standing bath with shower over and a separate walk-in shower offer a choice of ways to prepare for another day of exploring. With a shop and pub accessible from the property, you’ll have amenities available during your stay before venturing further into the North York Moors National Park.

Pull on your walking boots and make the most of the fabulous walks and lovely dales surrounding this rural retreat, soaking up the scenery and discovering the National Park together before returning to the warmth of the woodburning stove. Whether you’re seeking a romantic break for two or a countryside adventure with the family, The Ness near Glaisdale offers a characterful base in a stunning corner of North Yorkshire.

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.
