Property code: 88957

An attractive two-bedroom property set on the first floor of a converted barn within the small village of Newton-on-Rawcliffe; on the doorstep of the North York Moors National Park, roughly 30 miles north-east of the city of York. Less than 5 miles north of the busy market town of Pickering, you’ll have plenty to do and explore right on your doorstep. Just 3 miles north of the village and you can be walking in Cropton Forest. Travel another 18 miles and you’ll reach the fishing town of Whitby or you can travel there by steam train on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, passing by beautiful moorland scenery. A little further down the coast visit Scarborough (23 miles) with its two sandy beaches, amusements and castle.

Take the steps to the front door and enter into a triple-aspect, open-plan living/dining/kitchen area offering superb views towards Levisham to the east and the Vale of Pickering to the south. Dine at the table and plan your next adventure. When the night calls, you’ll find one double bedroom and one twin bedroom with plenty of storage space. There is a large bathroom with a corner bath and separate shower.

You are spoilt for choice of seating places as this complex has a vast communal garden with well-stocked borders and wildflower patches with strategically placed benches where you can while away the hours with a good book or just admire the wildness. There is also a communal pool house with changing facilities and showers; take a dip in the 6m exercise pool and finish off in the sauna and hot tub.

Loved the Granary, perfect with our granddaughter. Light and bright with nice views out, being upstairs. Pretty water gardens and a lovely village location. Much to do round about with kids.

A very pleasant start to self catering having always used hotels before. Very clean. Bottle of wine was a nice touch. I would have liked the spa/pool to be open longer as it was only available when we were out and about. Would recommend.

Property is in a beautiful location and is very clean with very comfortable beds and lovely bedding. We had one or two questions (heating and icy steps) which were dealt with very quickly and in a friendly way, the owners were easy to contact. Lots of crockery, glasses, pans etc. Improvements: A coffee table in the lounge. Pool open earlier so we cRead moreould have a swim before we went out for the day. Hide

The bed constantly creaked when you moved & the mattress was so uncomfortable, we ended up taking it turns to sleep on the sofa. The shower would not get hot even though we tried to turn it up full. The sauna hot tub and jacuzzi closed at 6pm. Most people like to relax in the evening, after they have been out all-day walking. The only pub or restauRead morerant was closed for two days and only did food on the weekend. Overall it was just a break we needed but just didn't come sold as seen on the website. Hide
