Located in Brompton-by-Sawdon, this idyllic, two-bedroom cottage, Barn Cottage. Boasting an exceptional location with easy access to the North York Moors National Park and the beautiful beach of Scarborough, as well as original features including exposed beams and a high apex ceiling, Barn Cottage makes for a wonderful base for two couples or a family of four who are looking to explore this glorious part of North Yorkshire. Park up on the driveway with two convenient off-road parking spaces available, before unloading your bags and taking in your peaceful and rural surroundings. Be welcomed into the sitting room, where you can look forward to curling up on the plush sofas and escaping with a good book as the woodburning stove crackles nearby. As you start to feel peckish, make your way through to the kitchen, where you can rustle up a delicious meal, courtesy of the range cooker, fridge/freezer and microwave. Settle down at the dining table to savour a tasty meal, as the wine is poured, and plans are made for the days ahead. Climb the stairs to the first floor, where you can pour in the bubbles and indulge in a soak in the bath, followed by fresh pyjamas and choosing from two well-presented bedrooms to catch your rest in, a double and a twin. Awake from a leisurely slumber and serve your guests morning coffee, ready to be enjoyed out on the private enclosed patio. Explore your local surroundings with countryside walks right from your doorstep and where you will also find a good selection of pubs and restaurants just a short drive away, ideal for when you want to sample the local delights. There are excellent village shops near by and a well-stocked supermarket just a short drive away. Ideal for picking up ingredients to whip up your favourite dishes in the comfort of Barn Cottage. Golfers will enjoy the driving range, 9-hole course and well-stocked shop at Snainton Golf Centre. The keen anglers in your party will delight at the close proximity of Wykeham Lakes Fishery which offers three scenic lakes to hook your catch of the day! For a memorable day, why not pay a visit to the North Yorkshire Water Park, where you can explore an inflatable course or try your hand at kayaking and paddle boarding? Continue further onto Scarborough, where you can explore a fascinating castle which frequently hosts live events and offers superb coastal views, experience the thrills of Luna Park, treat your guests to an unforgettable performance at the Scarborough Open Air Theatre which rests in the middle of a lake, or hop aboard a vintage steam train at the Scarborough North Bay Railway where you can kick-back and soak up the seaside views. Be sure to spend a day at Scarborough’s lovely beach, where you can bathe on the golden sands, paddle the shores, or indulge in fresh fish and chips. Next stop is Pickering, well-known for its remarkable 13th-century castle and home to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, where you can swap the seaside views for dramatic moorland scenery as you venture through the National Park. For a getaway to North Yorkshire like no other, secure your stay at Barn Cottage.
Scarborough and Pickering are both within easy driving distance of the sleepy village of Sawdon, which sits on the edge of the magnificent North York Moors National Park. On Wednesday to Sunday, the Anvil Pub in Sawdon serves good food, and there are numerous hiking trails that can be accessed from the town. Within a short drive, you'll find the charming village of Brompton-by-Sawdon, nestled in the scenic Forge Valley.

Clean, tidy and well equiped. Good communication from the owers on how to access the property. We feel that a proper shower would be better as we found the bath small. Also some blinds at the patio doors in the kitchen would be nice. Overall we had a good stay and would recommend to anybody else.

It is charming and tranquil. We found it extremely comfortable and well appointed. The owners communicate thoroughly; everything is straightforward and clear. The welcome biscuits and drinks were delicious and generous. We loved our stay. â¤ï¸

The location is perfect, sitting in the kitchen seeing so many birds coming and going in the garden was magical. We enjoyed trips out to Whitby, Scarborough, Thornton-le-Dale and Pickering. We ate at Cedar Farm Barn, a farm shop only ten minutes in the car just slightly past Thornton-le-Dale. It has a lovely childrenâs play area outside. We enjoyed playing in the park at Snainton too, again only a couple of minutes in the car. Fish and chips at Walkers, again only ten minutes away in East Ayton. Best fish and chips I have ever had. SO tasty. The cottage is very well stocked with fluffy towels, the kitchen is well supplied and the treats left for us were very much appreciated. The bathroom is in desperate need of a lick of paint. We really missed having a guest book here, we love arriving, settling in with a drink and having a look through at peoples recommendations. Itâs just not the same doing it online. Our little boy loves to write his name at the end of our stay too. Family recommendations are always really helpful so itâs a big shame thereâs no book in the cottage. We were also unable to watch tv a lot of the time because the signal wouldnât maintain itself. Nobodyâs fault but frustrating at the same time. Owners apologetic when I updated them, but again had been disappointing.
