Eskside Cottage

Located in the village of Sleights, a few miles from the bustling seaside town of Whitby, is this charming semi-detached, stone-built property, Eskside Cottage. Entering the property, be welcomed into a large open-plan living space with solid oak floors, which has been fully renovated into a welcoming holiday home for families, friends or two couples. Look forward to unwinding on the sofas and let the woodburning stove provide that extra bit of warmth during those chillier winter months whilst you enjoy a family movie night on the TV with internet-enabled set top box. This room also benefits from a dining area for four guests, which is the ideal sociable space for catching up on the day's activities. Walk through to the kitchen which has all cream fitted units and sleek oak worktops with a rustic Belfast sink and charming hand painted tiles of local scenes. All the necessary appliances are provided for cooking up some delicious meals, as well as a handy dishwasher and washer/dryer. The first floor hosts two well-presented bedrooms, set up as a king-size and a double. Enjoy spectacular views over the Esk Valley from the king-size bedroom, which has zip and link features so can easily accommodate all types of guests.
