The Old Police House,

The Old Police House is a converted former police station in Great Ayton, a riverside village in North Yorkshire, close to the North York Moors. It sleeps four and comes with a fully covered bubbling hot tub in a private courtyard usable year-round whatever the weather. Quirky accessories throughout give a nod to the building's policing past.

Great Ayton is a proper village with two popular pubs, cafes, an ice cream parlour and a fish and chip shop all within walking distance. Roseberry Topping is on your doorstep recently named one of Britain's favourite walks. The Cleveland Way and North York Moors are also easily reachable.

The property sleeps four across two bedrooms. Bedroom one is on the ground floor a twin zip-and-link that converts to a super-king on request with oak furniture and a TV. Bedroom two is upstairs with a king-size bed, fitted wardrobes, TV and en-suite shower room with skylight. There's also a ground floor bathroom with shower over bath.

Roseberry Topping (1.5 miles, 5 mins), Captain Cook's Monument (2 miles, 8 mins), Stokesley Market Town (4 miles, 10 mins) and the North York Moors National Park (6 miles, 15 mins) are all close by.

The Old Police House suits couples and groups of four who want a well-equipped base in a great village with serious walking country on the doorstep. Book it.
