About this property
Fylingthorpe 1.7 miles. Byre Cottage sits on a listed, 18th-century farmhouse on the outskirts of Flyingthorpe, North Yorkshire. With the North York Moors on its doorstep, plus easy access to golden sandy beaches, this pet-friendly cottage welcomes a family of six to explore the great outdoors. You'll find plenty of off-road parking in the picturesque courtyard on arrival, along with far-reaching views of the sparkling sea. Step into the spacious, open-plan living area, sure to be the social hub of your holiday; the family chef will find everything they need in the farmhouse-style kitchen area, including a washing machine and dishwasher. Set the table for six and tuck into a hearty breakfast, whilst you plan the day's adventures. When you return, a snug sitting area awaits with two sofas, a TV with DVD player, and an electric fire; pop the kettle on, make a round of tea, and relax with your favourite film. However, during the warmer months, make the most of your private garden to dine alfresco while your furry friend snoozes in the evening sun. When it's time to settle down, follow the stairs up to the first floor where three welcoming bedrooms have been thoughtfully appointed, including a double with en-suite bathroom, and two twin rooms, served by the family bathroom. Book your next North Yorkshire adventure in the historic setting of Byre Cottage. Note: This property can be booked with Refs. 992661, 992993, 992664 and 992655, together sleeping up to 32 guests.
