Glaisdale is a peaceful village on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, in the Esk Valley. The village has a post office, a butcher (famous for his pork pies) and a hotel/pub with restaurant. Whitby and the coast are 9 miles away, as are the quaint moorland villages of Hutton-le-Hole, Lastingham and Thornton Dale, as well as the market town of Pickering. For something a little quieter, visit Saltburn by the Sea, a charming Victorian seaside resort.

Carol
Amazing dog walk Bramble loved every minute of it. The gentleman owner was very friendly and helpful. Would love to have stayed and not gone home. Only one thing would have made it even better...... 2 larger tea mugs! Thank you for a lovely holiday.

Beds were very comfortable as were the chairs and there were plenty of chairs available in the shared garden with fantastic views. Lovely walking from the property and plenty of dog-walks. Only a short distance from so many super places.
