2 Bed in Castleton (oc-f34013)

Beautifully positioned in the heart of the Esk Valley and surrounded by stunning landscapes, this barn conversion is the ideal base for couples craving time in the great outdoors. Mill around the quaint village of Castleton and refuel at the award winning, Michelin recommended restaurant, The Eskdale. A little further afield is The Lion Inn (6 miles), serving food and drinks with impressive views, and boasting a variety of nearby footpaths to explore. Take on one of the many trails and hiking routes from Castleton, such as the challenging 7.5-mile Castleton to Lealholm route, part of the Esk Valley Walk that can be accessed directly from the cottage. Golden sands and stunning Gothic architecture await on Whitby's (15 miles) jaw-dropping coastline. Pick up produce, admire colourful beach huts, or mosey around the eclectic mix of shops. If you fancy a different beach spot, then Robin Hood's Bay, Sandsend and Staithes are all within 19 miles. Keen cyclists can take to the North York Moors Cycleway, which can be joined in Lealholm (4.5 miles), and be rewarded with blankets of heather, hidden valleys, and several traditional pubs.


Slip off shoes at the hallway bench, with a convenient WC located just nearby. Head through to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where a pared-back modern design provides a lovely area to get cosy. Catch up with loved ones at the central island and bar stools while your head chef of your group makes a start in the well-equipped kitchen. Meals can be enjoyed around the four-seater circular table, where you can also make plans for the coming days. An L-shaped, comfortable sofa, wood burner and a Smart TV offer a lovely space that’s the perfect antidote after busy days out. Upstairs, two delightful king-size bedrooms await with apex roofing and roof windows. Finishing this floor is the luxury bathroom, featuring a bath with shower over, and WC.


Enjoy gentle slopes and dazzlingly clear views from your private hot tub on the front patio. When the sun is shining, tuck into al fresco breakfasts at the table and chairs that have been hand carved from the farm's own ash tree. When the sun goes down, light the chimenea for cosy evenings under the stars. There is a second patio to the rear boasting direct access onto a bridleway. The property offers parking for two cars.
