About this property

Nestled near the popular seaside town of Whitby, North Yorkshire discover this fabulous two-bedroom cottage, Cow Byre Cottage. Benefitting from off-road parking, an enclosed garden and a stunning location within the North York Moors National Park, Cow Byre Cottage welcomes four guests seeking to explore this picturesque area of North Yorkshire. Upon entering your new home-from-home, kick back and relax in the sitting area as your other half rustles up a tasty home-cooked meal in the well-equipped kitchen. Take advantage of a range of handy appliances and pour yourself a cold glass of wine, before settling down at the dining table to tuck in; alternatively, if you prefer to bask in your surroundings a little longer, step out into the enclosed garden to relish an alfresco feast, chatting the evening away until the stars appear overhead. Freshen up with use of the inviting shower room on the first floor before opting for either a ground-floor double or twin bedroom, two charming spots where you can unwind and catch up on some well-deserved rest. If you can tear yourself away, kickstart your itinerary in the centre of Whitby, home to Whitby Abbey, Whitby Sea Front, Whitby Harbour East Lighthouse, Captain Cook Memorial Museum and the famous 199 Steps, offering imposing and far-reaching views of the beautiful coastline. Here you can also sample a variety of tasty grub in a selection of pubs, restaurants, cafes and bars that reside close by or head to the shops to stock up on the self-catering essentials. Spend the day in the seaside town of Scarborough, touring the grounds of Scarborough Castle, riding a range of amusements and rollercoasters at Luna Park Scarborough or relaxing upon the sandy trails at Scarborough Beach. In the North York Moors National Park, uncover a peppering of walking, hiking and cycling trails or pay a visit to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, Mulgrave Castle and the Museum of Victorian Science. Well-positioned to also experience all that Filey, Flamborough and even Bridlington have to offer, you’ll never be short of things to see or do. Enjoy a memorable escape to North Yorkshire, with a stay at Cow Byre Cottage.

At the mouth of the River Esk in North Yorkshire's Scarborough region sits the seaside town and port of Whitby. The area is perfectly positioned for visiting this stunning region of Yorkshire, and it offers a wide range of activities so you can make the most of both the countryside and the seaside. There is something for everyone in this area, from the adjacent North York Moors to its Blue Flag beaches. Among its many attractions, Whitby has a beautiful ambience with meandering streets and obscure alleys that are home to a variety of restaurants and businesses. Visit the charming waterfront and lighthouse to watch the sun go down, or go whale watching or on a coastal cruise to see the wildlife up close. To immerse yourself in history, ascend the 199 steps to Whitby Abbey or go to the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, which features a historical and anthropological display on Cook himself. Whitby is a fantastic location for discovering all that Yorkshire has to offer. It is close to Robin Hood's Bay, rich in history, wonders, and scenic areas, and is easily accessible from the thriving towns of Scarborough and Middlesbrough.
