A very pretty stone and pantiled semi-detached cottage, created from the conversion of a former granary building on the owner's family-run livestock and arable farm, set in the heart of the picturesque village of Levisham. Converted to a high standard and with a cosy and welcoming feel, this lovely, well laid out cottage offers superb open-plan accommodation, and is tastefully decorated and furnished, with shared use of a lovely large walled garden. This is an ideal base for exploring the coast and North York Moors, as well as the maze of footpaths in the surrounding hills and valleys.

High on the Yorkshire Moors, to the north of Pickering is the tiny, picturesque village of Levisham. Composed of a cluster of farms and a variety of attractive, neat stone cottages around a village green, this little settlement boasts a pub and a village church whilst there are shops 6 miles away in Pickering. Rising above the nearby Hole of Horcum - where the devil is said to have fallen to earth - is Levisham Beck which flows along a steep wooded valley. At the foot of this is a watermill and small waterfall, adding to the picturesque scenery. Throughout the beautiful countryside visitors can find a maze of tracks and footpaths whilst nearby Levisham station is a stop on the North York Moors Steam Railway. The area also hosts a number of castles, historic houses and moorland villages, as well as a variety of fishing facilities.
