Lealholm 2.5 miles. A charming mid-terrace stone cottage situated in the village of Glaisdale, in North Yorkshire, close to Lealholm. Inside, the owner has created a smart and warming retreat, ideal for friends or two couples. Be welcomed into the lovely sitting room with a plush sofa to sink into of an evening whilst you unwind in front of the warm woodburning stove. Walk through to the kitchen, which has been fitted to a high standard with all the necessary appliances so you can easily rustle up some delicious meals. Follow on through to the conservatory-come-dining-room and gather for an evening meal, or a hearty breakfast whilst planning the day's events. The property benefits from two double bedrooms, each housing their own wardrobe space, with the master also holding a chest of drawers and lovely bedside tables and lamps for some late night reading. Choose to spend those summer evenings in the rear garden area and dine alfresco whilst toasting to a superb holiday with a refreshing glass of champagne.

Further afield is the bustling seaside town of Whitby, home to a number of tourist attractions, including the historic Whitby Abbey, which was the inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula, the Captain Cook Museum or challenge yourself to the 199 steps.
