Sitting on the edge of the North Riding Forest Park, this modern cottage places you amid the pretty village of Thornton Dale. Immerse yourself in local life by lacing up your walking boots and exploring the great outdoors. A short drive from here, you'll find the heather-covered North York Moors, where religious ruins and cycle paths await. Alternatively, you could spend your time shopping in the historic market town of Pickering, just three miles east of here. Wake up each morning and wander into your informal living space, perfect for reconnecting with your loved ones. Or, take your breakfast tea outside and breathe in the clean country air. After you've been out on an adventure, why not slip off those muddy wellies and warm up with a toasty bubble bath? Better yet, we think you'll be enjoying summer nights out on your private patio. With a glass of wine in hand, be sure to catch the last of the rays on these sun loungers.
