Boasting a lovely position on the fringes of the North York Moors National Park, with access to all the seaside delights of Scarborough, is The Pheasantry. This stone-built, attached cottage offers a superb base for you to relax and unwind with your families or friends all the while making the most of the attractions in the area. Head into the open-plan living room via the front patio and relax on the sofa with the glow of the woodburning stove to keep you toasty and warm in winter. Move to the dining area and enjoy a home-cooked meal prepared in the modern-style kitchen, with a pleasant outlook over the front. Spend your down time with a spot of TV, grab a good book for a quiet read or even get out a board game and enjoy late night chats with a bottle of wine. The ground floor is complete with a lovely shower room, while the two double bedrooms rest upstairs. Soak your muscles in your very own hot tub to the rear of the property and indulge after a long walk on the moors. You have access to the Forge Valley Woods National Nature Reserve, which is of course teeming with a plethora of wildlife and an opportunity to get the family out in the fresh air along the River Derwent. Travel across to the bustling town of Scarborough and take the kids to one of the golden beaches, where you can build sandcastles and stroll along glistening shores. Discover the fabulous sweep of the North Yorkshire and Cleveland Heritage Coast and venture to Whitby and Robin's Bay for a varied day out, then return to this wonderfully appointed getaway with your loved ones.

Scarborough retains many of its original fine buildings, parks and gardens, as well as its castle which overlooks the town. North Bay and South Bay provide two stretches of golden beaches, while the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough Spa and Scarborough Open Air Theatre are also worth a visit. Enjoy coastal walks along the Cleveland Way or a cycle route along the old railway to Whitby.
