Our cottages are set within a beautifully restored historic farmstead, each retaining its original character with modern amenities. With spacious living areas, fully equipped kitchens, and cosy open log fires. We can accommodate up to 19 guests across our 5 self catering cottages all set within two acres of grounds, allowing guests to be together when they want to be, but the space to be on their own too.
Our indoor heated swimming pool is often the highlight for families, offering hours of fun regardless of the weather. Alternatively, spend your time exploring the games room, where pool, table tennis, and a selection of board games bring out a bit of healthy competition.
Outside, the gardens at Cliff House provide plenty of opportunities to enjoy nature together. Children can explore the grounds, play in the yew-hedge den, or discover the play equipment, while adults enjoy a quiet moment with a cup of tea in our gardens. Gather around for a barbecue in the evening, share stories, and take in the starlit skies of North Yorkshire.
