Chomley @ Summerfield Farm

About this property

Cholmley @ Summerfield Farm is a cottage set on the outskirts of Hawsker, North Yorkshire, one of Summerfield Farm’s welcoming accessible holiday cottages, thoughtfully designed for guests who require inclusive access and additional daily support while still enjoying a warm, relaxed and family-friendly holiday environment, offering a flexible layout with ground-floor facilities and a setting shaped by the surrounding countryside. Suited to families, friends, and guests with limited mobility, the cottage balances shared living space with thoughtful design features that support ease of movement and confidence throughout the stay, with space for equipment and assisted transfers carefully considered throughout. Step inside and the open-plan living space immediately establishes a sense of character, with wooden flooring underfoot and exposed beams overhead adding warmth and texture to the room, creating a relaxed, open-plan layout where everyone can unwind together. The kitchen sits comfortably within the space, finished with green tiled walls and wooden fixtures that give it a distinctive feel, while remaining well-arranged for everyday cooking, and is fully equipped with a dishwasher, alongside washer and dryer facilities within the cottage for easy holiday living. Close by, the dining area creates a natural place to gather for meals and conversations, whether starting the day slowly or settling in after time outdoors. The sitting area is centred around an exposed brick fireplace with a woodburning stove set within, forming a natural focal point as the day draws to a close, with a comfortable sitting area arrangement including a three-seater sofa and an additional armchair. An electric rise and riser recliner chair offers additional support, while views out to the serene garden allow the outdoors to remain part of the room. It is a space designed for unwinding, with the television on for quieter evenings or the fire lit after a day spent exploring the area. Sleeping accommodation is arranged across three bedrooms, offering flexibility for mixed groups. The ground-floor twin bedroom features exposed beams and is fitted with a profiling bed that incorporates an additional single bed, along with an Oxford ceiling track hoist, creating a room designed around reassurance and providing space for carers and essential equipment. Upstairs, the double bedroom is finished in soft blue tones and benefits from a Velux window that draws natural light into the space, while the twin bedroom provides a further welcoming option for friends or family members. The cottage offers a choice of bathing facilities, with a ground-floor non-slip wet room featuring a level-access, roll-in shower, basin, and WC, designed for straightforward daily use, with space for assisted transfers and access to a selection of shower chairs, including standard, tilting and Seahorse paediatric options, alongside a bathroom with bath, shower over, basin, and WC, where a bath seat is available, as well as two additional first-floor shower rooms with basin and WC. These spaces support a range of needs while allowing guests to move through the cottage comfortably, with a mobile hoist available on request, and additional support equipment such as a Sara Stedy and Atlas Advance turning aid also available on request. Outside, the garden provides a pleasant place to pause and enjoy the fresh air, with a patio and outdoor furniture set out for time spent sitting back and taking in the rural surroundings, including a large shared garden where mornings can be spent roaming outdoors, alongside a private seating and dining area for this cottage where you can fire up the barbecue, all within a safe outdoor space for children and dogs. Off-road parking for two cars is available close to the cottage, making arrivals and departures simple. A pub can be reached on foot for an easy meal out, while the nearest shop is a short drive away for essentials, and Whitby town centre sits a short drive away, surrounded by countryside and sea views, with sightlines reaching towards Whitby Abbey. The nearby Cinder Track offers a traffic-free, wheelchair-accessible route into Whitby, taking around 50 minutes on foot or wheel, though most guests choose to drive. Family-friendly extras are also provided, including a travel cot, high chair, bed guard, changing mat and a selection of toys to help everyone settle in. Cholmley @ Summerfield Farm offers a characterful cottage in North Yorkshire, combining shared living space, inclusive design features, and access to both countryside and coast, particularly well suited to guests who require accessible shower facilities and assisted transfer support, with accessibility considered throughout rather than treated as an add-on. Note: This property can be booked with ref 1072183, 1071151, & 1071146, together sleeping 32 guests.

The pretty village of Hawsker is situated half way between Whitby and Robin Hood’s Bay, just two and a half miles from each, making it an ideal base from which to explore the area. Cottages and farms complete this pleasant village, with a local pub serving food, a tea room, a village hall, primary school and children's playground. Set on the National Cycle Network and the Whitby/Scarborough Railtrail (Cinder Trail), Hawsker provides a great base for walkers, cyclists and lovers of the outdoors. The superb coastline in this beautiful part of Yorkshire, and the spectacular North York Moors are well worth exploring, as is the fishing village of Robin Hood's Bay and the ancient port of Whitby. With its winding streets and hidden alleys, Whitby is a charming atmospheric town with a picturesque harbour, long, sandy beaches and the famous Abbey, reached by the 199 steps! Taste the freshly caught fish and chips, take a trip on a local boat or browse a great selection of unique and independent shops.
