Cherry Garth Cottage,

A tastefully styled property with a leafy garden oasis, nestled on the outskirts of Stamford Bridge and perfectly placed for exploring the North Yorkshire Moors and coast. This stylish bolthole is ideal for young families or small groups of friends relaxing in nature. While away sunny afternoons perusing the immaculately groomed gardens and shimmering lily lakes at Burnby Hall (8.5 miles), before returning home to unwind with coffee and cake in the tranquil conservatory. This appealing cottage offers an elegant interior with rich earthy tones, wooden textures, and sunny splashes of colour throughout. Shrug off outer layers at the door then pad into the cosy lounge complete with a roaring open fire. Stretch out weary legs on the plump sofas and debrief on the day’s adventures or flick through the Smart TV for some easy entertainment. Venture along the hallway and into the inviting dining space, warmed by the crackling wood burner. Rustle up a simple supper in the shaker-style kitchen with patterned tiling. Grab a book and escape to the light-dappled conservatory or simply gaze out over the lush garden. Ascend the tiled staircase to discover three charming bedrooms with characterful original features. On the second floor, restless youngsters can escape to the fun-packed games room in the attic. Outdoors, you can kick back with a grilled al fresco feast surrounded by mature trees and plants. Explore immaculately manicured gardens, historic temples, and glistening waterways with a visit to Castle Howard (12 miles). Kit up to navigate the undulating emerald hills of the Yorkshire Wolds from Huggate (13 miles) or embark on a spooky ghost tour in the heart of York (9 miles).
