These traditional stone farm buildings have been individually and lovingly transformed into delightful holiday homes, welcoming you on a memorable stay in Yorkshire.
May Cottage is a characterful one-bedroom cottage, complete with beamed ceilings evoking its rather humble beginnings. The property is all on one level throughout, with a cosy living room complete with an electric stove beside the armchairs, plus a dining table for two. There is a kitchen with a quaint country feel. The bedroom has twin beds, ideal for friends as well as family members travelling together. The property is complete with a shower room.
The owners have endeavoured to ensure that every guest has a wonderful stay, with a beautiful on-site swimming pool, which is kept at a comfortable 28C. You can start each day with an invigorating swim, or wind down in an evening in the clear warm water. There is also a sauna in the pool room which can be used at an additional cost. Besides the pool room you have a BBQ area with picnic benches and elevated views over the surrounding countryside. This destination is a haven for wildlife, where you can catch glimpses of deer as they venture from the woodland. Also on-site is a games room, which has pool table as well as table tennis and a selection of books and board games, which are sure to keep you entertained.
The cottage is a couple of miles outside of the peaceful village of Cloughton, which has two friendly local pubs, serving lovely homemade meals. The nearest coastal spot is Hayburn Wyke, where you have a woodland walk with a waterfall cascading over the cliff top onto a secluded cove. There is an 18th-century coaching inn here, serving hearty meals as well as tasty desserts in front of a roaring open fire. The Cleveland Way and the Cinder Track are scenic walking trails nearby, taking in Ravenscar and Robin Hood’s Bay on the way towards the seafaring town of Whitby.
The North Yorkshire Moors National Park has some delightful little villages amongst the vast stretches of heather strewn hills and valleys. There is also the ancient Dalby Forest which has brilliant cycle and walking trails to be explored. Enjoy the great outdoors and take in your surroundings whilst having the most incredible base to return to, making your holiday one to treasure.
This property can be booked together with Bartlett’s Barn (UK38276), Over Across (UK38277) and Swallows Folly (UK38278) to accommodate up to 12 adults and 3 children.

This was a lovely cottage - part of a barn conversion - with everything you could possibly need. The surroundings / setting was idyllic, calm, peaceful, and grounding, just the sound of birdsong and a very occasional vehicle ( usually a tractor).This and three other cottages had full access to an indoor heated swimming pool, games room and layndry, with sauna also available at a small extra cost. Located approx 6 mikes from the coast in one direction and North Yorks moors etc in the other.Thoroughly enjoyed my stay, but do recommend a driver and vehicle be part of the grouo, due to location.Will be going again and recommend to anyone who wants some time out!
