Accommodation overview: Tucked away in their own picturesque valley, this imposing stone farmhouse (Baysdale Abbey Ref IHH) and three Grade II listed holiday properties (Kildale Barn Ref ISA, Ingleby Barn Ref ISB and Westerdale Barn Ref ISC) lie on the site of a 12th-century Cistercian Abbey in an idyllic setting, where endless footpaths radiate from the door. Renovated in 2009, and accessed by a 2-mile drive, they are set on a working farm where sheep and cattle graze (farm machinery – children must be supervised) within the glorious North Yorkshire Moors National Park.
Thoughtfully restored, Baysdale Abbey (Ref IHH) has been furnished and equipped to a very high standard and can accommodate a large group of people. All rooms are spacious, light and airy, with wonderful views of the surrounding countryside. Original wooden floors on the ground level blend with shuttered windows, cornices add decorative touches and open fires in the reception rooms provide a welcoming atmosphere. A large natural garden surrounds the house and is edged by a fenced beck, providing a good habitat for an array of wildlife.
Dating back to the 1800s the other three holiday properties (Kildale Barn Ref ISA, Ingleby Barn Ref ISB and Westerdale Barn Ref ISC) offer character accommodation in a tranquil and idyllic location. Vaulted beamed ceilings and wood-burning stoves add to the charm and character providing a welcoming atmosphere. The properties are surrounded by large natural gardens and edged by the trickling waters of the beck (fenced).
Offering 3 miles of sandy beaches is the historic port of Whitby renowned for its connections with Captain James Cook and its picturesque harbour and cobbled streets. Here you can board the North Yorkshire Moors Steam Train (Hogwarts Express in the Harry Potter films) and take a memorable journey through the stunning Esk Valley. Heritage homes, halls and castles abound in this area with Castle Howard, the setting of Brideshead Revisited, Nunnington Hall, Duncombe Park and Rievaulx Abbey being just a few of the treasures awaiting discovery. Being within the vast and magnificent North Yorkshire Moors National Park makes this an ideal holiday location at any time of the year. The coastal villages of Staithes, Runswick Bay and Sandsend all lie within 23 miles. Shops 3 miles, pub 8 miles.
