About this property
A detached 18th century, stone-built former stable, set next to the owner's home in a quiet corner of the delightful village of Lastingham. Lovingly restored, decorated and furnished, the property has been finished to a high standard, and provides first-class holiday accommodation. The accommodation is all ground floor, and the lovely open-plan living area has French doors leading to a patio area overlooking the village stream. A great base from which to explore the area, the property is within the Moors National Park, and Whitby, the famous coastline and the pretty villages and market towns of the region are within easy reach.
The tiny village of Lastingham is a quiet haven on the edge of the North York Moors with beautiful countryside all around it. The best known building in the village is the Crypt Church of St Mary with its ancient crypt. St Cedd founded a monastery in Lastingham in the 7th Century, but it was destroyed by the Danes in the 9th Century. Pickering is seven miles away and is home to The Beck Isle Museum, which is housed in a handsome Regency property near the centre of the town. Other attractions in the town include The North Yorks Moors Steam Railway. With many castles, historic houses, abbeys, churches and other heritage sites, along with the glorious surrounding countryside, this is a tremendous base for a memorable holiday.
