Property information

Originally a stone barn, this property has been lovingly and tastefully restored to offer open-plan living accommodation for two people. Much of the cottage's original charm has been preserved through the retention of original features such as exposed beams, sloping ceilings and wooden floorboards. Visitors will also have access to an acre of land which is bordered by a walled garden. Fully centrally heated, it can act as a warm and peaceful base at any time of year.

Neighbourhood information

Danby is a charming village located towards the head of the Esk Valley. At the heart of Danby is the village green where Scotch Blackface sheep keep the grass down all year round. The village itself is well served by a pub, a bakery and café, a village store and a post office. The North Yorkshire Moors National Park has a visitor's centre just outside the village. Here visitors can learn something of the history of area and be directed to all manner of walks from a short stroll to longer treks for serious ramblers. There are quite often demonstrations of local crafts and farming skills in the area. North of the Moors' centre lies the valley of Clitherbeck where coal mining used to take place.
