APPLE COTTAGE
APPLE COTTAGE
Apple Cottage is one of our two smaller cottages, well suited for couples, solo travellers or as an additional space when booking multiple cottages for larger family gatherings. It offers a simple, comfortable base with everything you need to slow down and enjoy the North York Moors and Yorkshire coast.
Inside you’ll find one double bedroom, a bathroom with bath and shower, and a kitchen with everything you need for easy self-catering. The living area is compact but welcoming, with views out across the grounds. As with all our cottages, Apple Cottage is dog friendly, so you don’t need to leave four-legged friends behind.
When you stay here, you also have access to:
-
🌿 Two acres of gardens and Wishing Well Wood – with pond, chickens to feed, and plenty of space to pause.
-
🏊 Indoor heated swimming pool – available in with private slots for each cottage.
-
🎱 Games room above the pool – table tennis, pool, toy library and books for all ages.
-
🚗 Off-street parking and EV chargers.
-
🌐 Starlink high-speed Wi-Fi – typically 200–300mbps, ideal for staying connected if you need to.
We’ve been making small but steady changes to keep Cliff House more sustainable: compost-grown plants, rainwater butts, meadow areas for wildlife, and sourcing locally wherever possible. As Champions for the North York Moors National Park, we’re proud to share this part of Yorkshire responsibly with our guests.
Apple Cottage offers an easy, low-fuss stay in a setting that puts the best of the Moors, coast and nearby market towns all within reach.

COSY PLACE
This is a lovely cosy place for two people, and a dog! There’s a swimming pool too. Lovely walks from the cottage and is well placed for visiting the area. – VANESSA
GREAT LOCATION
Just back from a fantastic week in Apple Cottage at Cliff House Holiday Cottages. It’s such a great location as you can easily get onto the North Yorkshire Moors or the Vale of York. The cottage was clean and comfortable, a lovely welcome pack awaited us, which was really appreciated, and the friendly owners live on site, so are always around if you need them. – PAULA

OUR COTTAGES
Being near the coastal towns of Whitby and Scarborough, as well as the market towns of Pickering and Malton, we are well sited for visiting the best that the Yorkshire Coast and Countryside has to offer. We are also very handy for such attractions as Flamingoland near Pickering and the Alpamare waterpark in Scarborough. For more information on what to see and do, please visit our “What’s On” page.
York isn’t very far away, you can either drive or park up and take advantage of the hourly train service from Malton.
A perfect day trip is to be had on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, which can coupled with some time in the market town of Pickering. To the east there is the beautiful Yorkshire Coast with the seaside towns of Bridlington, Scarborough and Whitby all close at hand – all offer something to do throughout the year. For the more active there are many cycling and mountain biking trails in Dalby Forest
