About this property
This homely cottage is in Danby, a charming village located within the North York Moor National Park. Wake up to fantastic views over the Esk Valley and spend your days exploring the surrounding moorland on foot or by bicycle. Danby is known locally for its health food shop, bakery, cafe, and village pub all located within 350 metres of your abode. You’ll also be within easy reach of wonderful seaside locations like Staithes, Runswick Bay and Sandsend, all under 12 miles away.
You’ll enter the property via a south-facing front garden, with seating areas so you can bask in the Yorkshire sunshine and enjoy the vistas. The front door opens to a spacious, open-plan living area with lovely velvety sofas, a large dining table and an open fire within an exposed brick fireplace. A cheerful colour scheme makes this space feel especially sunny and bright. Head through to the well-equipped kitchen, which is fabulous for cooking holiday meals and leads to a handy backyard where you can store bikes. Upstairs, have a soak in the free-standing bath then retire to one of the four beautifully decorated bedrooms. The master bedroom, on the second floor, has a gorgeous, vaulted ceiling and wooden beams, plus window seating for enjoying the countryside views.
The area is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, with numerous walks and cycle paths directly accessible from your doorstep. The nearby Danby Lodge National Park Centre (0.5 miles), which has relaxing gardens, a cafe, a shop and an adventure playground, is the start of many walks. Danby Beacon (2 miles) offers fantastic panoramic views, while at Danby station you can board the local train to Whitby (13 miles), a fantastic seaside town.
