    “Gorgeous cottage in a quiet neighbourhood and well positioned.”

    Cottage was immaculate, modern and felt like home from home. The hosts had thought of everything (and we have stayed in lots of holiday lets over the years). Nick met us at the cottage to welcome us in and I had great communication with Helen too. We were made to feel very welcome at the Bridge Inn (literally 1 min walk away!) by Sarah - fabulous little pub with great home cooked food and dog friendly. Sandsend is lovely to visit (dog friendly beach) as well as pretty Whitby. Would recommend ...

Sandsend is lovely to visit (dog friendly beach) as well as pretty Whitby. Would recommend Wits End cafe for a bite to eat. Bonus that the cottage is so near the train station too. Lots of steam engine spotting and pretty walks by the viaduct. Thank you for a brilliant stay!

The property

Esk Side Cottage is an inviting holiday home nestled in the charming village of Ruswarp, North Yorkshire.

Perfect for families and friends, this pet-friendly property offers an open-plan layout, enclosed garden, and is conveniently located in a quiet cul-de-sac, with off street parking, near the family friendly Bridge pub and the highly rated Jacksons butchers.

Upon entering the property, you will be greeted by a spacious open-plan area, thoughtfully designed to incorporate a kitchen, dining room, and sitting room.

The modern kitchen is equipped with everything you need to prepare delicious meals, which can be enjoyed at the dining table, providing a sociable space for family gatherings.

The light and airy sitting room offers a relaxing area to unwind after a day of exploring, with a cloakroom conveniently located nearby for added convenience.

The three bedrooms are tastefully decorated with comfortable beds to provide you with a good nights sleep.

The super-king-size bedroom, which can be converted into a twin room upon request, offers flexibility to suit your needs.

There's also a charming double bedroom and a single bedroom, ensuring everyone has a pleasant place to rest.

Freshen up in the modern, bright bathroom with a refreshing shower or relax with a leisurely soak in the p-shaped bath.

To the rear is a sunny enclosed rear garden, perfect for enjoying a morning cuppa on the sun-lit patio and the garden has plenty of space for a family picnic.

Ruswarp is a quiet village with lots to do – a short walk along the river you can hire boats or kayaks, there is a soft-play area nearby for younger children and there is a lovely riverside café and restaurant.

The pretty seaside town of Whitby is within easy reach – either a short drive by car or there is a nearby bus-stop.

Alternatively there is a flat, easy walk of about 20 minutes alongside the nearby railway line – which in itself provides an opportunity to see steam trains along the North York Moors Railway.

Whitby offers many attractions – a stroll down historic cobbled streets, a scenic walk up the 199 steps to the atmospheric ruins of Whitby Abbey, try the Dracula Experience or enjoy a walk around the harbour.

A visit to Whitby is not complete without trying one of the many fish and chip eateries that Whitby is famous for.

Visit Whitby Museum for a deeper insight into the town's rich history or enjoy beachcombing under the brightly-coloured Whitby Beach Huts.

Only slightly further afield are the majestic North Yorkshire moors, seaside villages such as Robin Hoods Bay and the traditional British seaside attractions of bustling Scarborough.

Esk Side Cottage provides the perfect base to explore and enjoy an unforgettable visit to the North Yorkshire coast.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

The Esk Valley Walk runs through the village, and it is an easy 25 minute walk to the centre of Whitby. Ruswarp has a regular bus service, and the single track railway has regular steam trains running through! Enjoy an hour’s boating on the river, take a ride on the miniature train, feed the local ducks, or enjoy a snack at the tea room.
