Owl Barn
Here you are surrounded by the vast expanse of rolling moorland, farmland and valleys of ancient woodland, laced with walking trails. This is the ideal choice for guests who love the great outdoors. Owl Barn dates back to 1767, and was once a modest farm outbuilding which was falling into disrepair over the centuries. It has now been lovingly transformed into a unique holiday destination, with the added surprise in one of the neighbouring barns, an on-site bar! After a busy day of exploring pop along to the specially built mini pub, with an arcade machine, darts and other pub games, as well as a wood burner making it atmospheric and cosy, with the main focal point being a big statement solid stone bar. This bespoke little pub is shared with the other properties on-site, so you can mingle in an evening and share your recommendations for your favourite nearby places to visit. Bring your own drinks and have a night to remember. There is also a barbecue in the field, where you can enjoy meals al fresco before watching the night sky light up with stars as you warm yourself around the open flames of the firepit.
When returning to your cottage you are welcomed by the grand and spacious living area with comfortable seating beside the wood burner and a large dining table where you can all gather for evening meals. This room is open plan with the kitchen, which is modern yet has a country twist, with a Belfast sink and sweeping white marble worktops. The layout of the rooms is unique and follows some of the original shapes of the building. On the ground floor you have a master kingsize bedroom with an en-suite walk-in shower. Then a separate wing of the building has a double bedroom with its own mezzanine up paddle stairs with a bath complete with a hand held shower. Stairs lead up from the living area to the first floor kingsize bedroom with an en-suite shower. Each bedroom has so much character you are spoilt for choice choosing which one you will call your own. There is also an enclosed patio area, please be aware that the stones are uneven due to their age as these are the original farm building flag stones. Owl Barn is in a peaceful rural location, around 2 miles from the village centre. In the village of Glaisdale you have the village inn as well as a local butchers, with the River Esk meandering through the village. It is in an idyllic location with numerous public footpaths, including the Coast to Coast walking trail which connects the west to the east coast. Out on the moors are the picture perfect villages of Hutton-le-Hole, Pickering or Helmsley, with its castle and gardens all waiting to be explored. You can take even a trip through the moors on the Heritage steam train which runs from Whitby to Pickering. The coastline from Saltburn-by-the-Sea to Filey is a place of rugged beauty, with many isolated fishing villages such as Staithes and Robin Hood’s Bay all just a short drive away. The property is situated just 9 miles from the town of Whitby with its year round events and festivals such as the Goth Weekend and the Steampunk Weekend. Famous for its link to Dracula, the abbey and its award-winning fish and chips, Whitby has something for everyone. Beach 11 miles.
Owl Barn can be booked together with The Nook to accommodate up to 8 guests.
