Just a 10-minute drive away from the bustling seaside town of Whitby, you are in the perfect position to enjoy the many attractions in this historic town as well as the stunning countryside of the North York Moors National Park. The quaint seaside village of Robin Hood’s Bay is even closer, with whimsical cobbled streets and winding footpaths linking the cluster of houses spilling down to the waters edge.
The Cart Shed at Fern Farm was once a modest barn which has been completely transformed into a stunning holiday cottage, ensuring you have the warmest welcome. With views across the rolling fields and out across the national park, this is a great choice for guests looking to get back to nature. Stepping inside large glass doors welcome you into the open plan living area beneath a beamed ceiling, with a modern quartz topped kitchen, complete with a breakfast bar as well as integrated appliances. Unwind together on the sofa whilst taking in the views, watching out for wildlife, or have a cosy movie night after a busy day exploring. The bedroom has a kingsize bed beneath the beamed ceiling, in this peaceful location you are promised a deep uninterrupted sleep. The cottages have spectacular panoramic sea views across Whitby Abbey to Sandsend coastline with amazing sunsets and star gazing into the evening. The owner also offers the option to pre-book massage and spa treatments with a masseuse at an additional cost.
