Granary Cottage is situated on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, seven miles west of Scarborough and the East Coast, and convenient for Whitby, Filey, Bridlington, Pickering, and York.
This lovely self-catering cottage is a beautifully renovated 18th Century barn nestled in a superb position overlooking the stunning Troutsdale countryside. The cottage has three bedrooms: one super-king (downstairs), one king (upstairs) and one twin (upstairs), each with en-suite bathrooms, sleeping six guests in comfortable luxury.
Layout:
Ground floor: stone floored entrance hall with beamed ceiling and feature oak staircase leading to gallery landing.
From the entrance hall, down a couple of steps and to the left, there are doors leading to a beautiful, expansive drawing room with sofas, writing desk & chair, a piano, and a feature Chesney stone fireplace housing an electric fire. There are windows on two sides giving spectacular views over the surrounding countryside, and French windows opening to the outside patio area.
To the right of those steps, there is a cloakroom, with a wash hand basin and W.C.
Turn left from entrance hall, up a couple of steps and into the dining kitchen, which has been custom built with Stirling & Jones oak units, granite work surfaces and oak strip flooring. Kitchen equipment includes fridge/freezer, electric oven and hob, microwave, kettle, toaster, dishwasher, and washer/dryer. The kitchen is well-equipped for preparing, cooking, and serving meals for six guests.
The double doors from the dining kitchen open to a TV Lounge with a sofa and armchairs, coffee tables and a feature stone fireplace with electric fire.
From the TV lounge, up a step and into the large master bedroom with a super-king bed, bedside cabinets, walk-in wardrobe, sofa, dressing table and stool. The en-suite bathroom comprises a bath, shower, wash hand basin, W.C., heated towel rail and illuminated mirrored cabinet.
First floor - upstairs from entrance hall is a double bedroom with a king-size bed, bedside cabinets, wardrobe, chest of drawers. The en-suite bathroom comprises bath and shower over bath, W.C., and heated towel rail.
There is also a twin bedroom on this floor, with two single beds, wardrobe, bedside cabinets, chest of drawers and chair. The en-suite bathroom has bath and shower over bath, wash hand basin, W.C., heated towel rail and illuminated mirrored cabinet.
There is underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, and radiators on the upper floor.
The garden is not enclosed or fenced, and there is a patio area with garden furniture. Parking is available right next to the cottage.
Granary Cottage is located on a busy working farm, so dogs must be kept under control at all times. There is plenty of parking and outside space and garden (not enclosed) with garden furniture for those long summer evenings.
Pheasant shoots also take place from October to January, so the farmyard is busy when the guns meet in the morning, and again at lunchtime.
Heating and electricity included in your rental. We provide all bedding, bed linen and towels, TV, and WiFi (subject to fair usage policy).
Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome at an added fee of £20 per dog.
Please note: Gardens/Outside areas not necessarily dog proof, even if fenced/walled, so dogs must be kept under control at all times, especially near farm animals.
The description of the cottage is exactly correct and the pictures of the web site are like reality...
We really enjoyed our stay
the sofa is worn out in the TV room.
The kitchen dustbin is very dirty

A really spacious property with the most beautiful views possible. We had an excellent holiday with three adults, one child and two dogs as the location is central to the forests and the seaside. The cottage is very comfortably furnished and feels like a home, not a holiday let that has just been furnished from a job lot. We will certainly return if not to this cottage, then to the area.
We have already contacted you regarding the cooker and the doors. many thanks for your prompt reply.
The only other comments is, that as this is a working farm an enclosed area for children and dogs would be helpful and mean the French windows could be opened.

the standard of accommodation was excellent - the smoke alarm did go off for no reason on the Friday morning which was not ideal at 05;00 with a 3 year old but overall the cottage was lovely - the drawing room was fabulous and very peaceful
some checks needed to be done perhaps more regularly - some bulbs out, smoke alarm as above and no loo rolls on arrival but this was perhaps because we arrived early. also, the welcome pack for the Scottish properties is far better. As for having a 3 year old, we were very wary that the drop outside the cottage garden did not have a fence

Fabulous cottage furnished and equipped to the highest standard. Appreciated all the extras that were supplied and the attention to detail that has gone in to making this cottage so luxurious. Would not hesitate to recommend and hope to return soon.
Door of double bedroom would not shut but this was a minor issue.

location is superb
At least three piles of dog excrement on the lawned area. We did not have any young children with us on this occasion but if we did have the grandchildren with us this would not have been acceptable.
Mould growing on the tiles in the master bathroom shower.
Bad smell of drains from the bath in the upstairs double bedded room.

Beautiful luxury accommodation....like a country manor! Stunning location and stylish decoration. Gorgeous walks around the cottage. We loved it. Hares Leap Farm shop nearby is fabulous for Sunday lunch. Fantastic, helpful staff too.
Perhaps there could be a few more big salad style bowls in the kitchen seeing as most guests will probably self cater for dinner. Only a minor concern!
