This traditional Yorkshire stone property stands amongst a row of cottages in Thornton le Dale, a picturesque village that exudes olde-world charm in abundance and is ideally placed for exploring the North York Moors. Sleeping five guests across three bedrooms, your home away from home is a peaceful retreat for families and friendship groups alike. Beneath the rustic exterior is a surprisingly contemporary living space with refined decor and comfortable furniture to match. The kitchen encompasses sleek units, ample worktop space and a range of equipment including an electric oven, gas hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and wine cooler. Take a seat at the dining room and enjoy your spoils, or sample some of the tasty treats from your exclusive welcome pack. In terms of necessities, there’s a handy utility room with ample storage for coats and shoes as well as a washing machine and tumble dryer to take care of any laundry needs. Your canine companion can have a quick wash-down in the downstairs shower room too, leaving you to relax and banish the worry of messy paws on the furniture. Embrace a slower pace of life and throw a log onto the lounge wood burner ready to curl up with a glass of wine on the sofas. Watch TV or challenge your party to a few fun games. On warm evenings you can throw open the door for an al fresco feel, or venture outside and climb the steps for a soothing brew in your country cottage garden. A vibrant mix of wild flowers, bulbs and flowering shrubs makes this a wonderful spot for light breakfasts and morning coffee in the spring and summer before picking up your bikes from the storage provided and setting off on an adventure. Back inside, two staircases lead up to separate areas of the cottage where you will find the beautiful bedrooms. The first set of stairs reveal a pretty single room that’s perfect for young guests as it allows for a silent night away from the excitement downstairs, and the remaining bedrooms can be found at the top of the second flight of stairs. Before sinking into the linen of the king-size bed or the super-king zip-and-link, relish a long soak in the bathroom. You’ll notice that the monochrome tiling extends from the open and airy kitchen to the sleek bathroom, completing the minimalist design with an artistic flair.
