This gorgeous bolthole is set in the heart of pretty Ryedale, near Malton, in the Vale of Pickering surrounded by rolling countryside. Perfect for relaxing weekends, walkers, cyclists, a romantic retreat or a culture-filled experience with excellent restaurants and places to visit nearby. The Granary comprises a spacious one bedroom cottage with a Vi-spring mattress on a super king sized bed, Egyptian cotton bed linen, antique pine furniture, art on the walls and a beautiful view across the open fields of the arable farm. It has a brand new eat-in kitchen (with new Nespresso Coffee machine) and a tasteful bathroom with a separate walk-in shower as well as a bath and White Company towels. The large sitting room has a wood burner for cosy evenings (logs included), a large sofa and armchair, fresh flowers, coffee tables, all furnished with the owners' art, antiques and collectables. Set at the end of a private road off a country lane, this is unquestionably peaceful and idyllic in its setting and is full of character. It adjoins the main house at the very end of the property to ensure it retains its privacy but the owners are on hand to offer advice and local knowledge, having grown up in the local area. It has a fenced and (mostly patio) garden, with table and chairs, stunning views across towards the North York Moors and a wood-burning brazier to keep warm or to use as a barbecue. The holiday home is just 5 miles from the bustling market town of Malton, and Pickering, nestled between the Howardian Hills and the Moors. Helmsley is only 20 minutes away and was just awarded 'best market town in Britain'. It also has easy access to the historic city of York and is only 40 minutes from the spectacular North East coast with seaside towns such as Whitby, Filey and Scarborough to explore. Historic stately homes of Castle Howard, Duncombe Park and Nunnington Hall are only a few miles away. We are also very close to the North York Moors National Park, Dalby Forest and other local attractions such as Eden Camp. You enter The Granary through the garden, to a sheltered front door (all brand new external windows and doors) which leads into a small hall. The bathroom with WC, basin, bath and separate shower is to your left and the kitchen straight ahead with dining table and amenities listed below. The corridor then leads onto the large bedroom and spacious sitting room. All internal doors are reclaimed pine, carpets, rugs and tiling all fitted this year. Other amenities and features are listed below: A welcome pack awaits you on arrival to include milk, tea, coffee etc; the bedroom features a double wardrobe, two bedside cabinets and a generous chest of drawers all in antique pine; the well-equipped kitchen has an electric ceramic x4 hob with oven and grill, toaster, kettle, dishwasher, fridge with ice-box; (iron/ironing board, clothes washing facilities and extra freezer space are available on request); Farrow & Ball colour scheme;; free Wifi; flat screen TV with Freeview; games, books and binoculars (to spy on the local wildlife to include garden birds, pheasants, partridges, barn owls nesting nearby and wild deer!); hairdryer; no internal steps; oil central heating throughout; parking right outside the front door for two cars; public footpaths criss-cross the farm for plenty of nearby walks. Sorry no pets and no smoking in the property.

Rob was a wonderful guest. He was polite and friendly and left my cottage in excellent order. I'd happily recommend him to other hosts and would gladly have him back to stay.
This property was amazing and in a wonderful location. Sadly we needed to leave early due to a close family member being seriously ill. We do hope to return sometime and would highly recommend this barn to others.

What a beautiful location and exceptional accommodation. From the moment we arrived until we had to depart we were comfortable and relaxed. Kate was wonderful to work with too.Thank you so much.
We really enjoyed our stay. The property was exceptionally well presented and the proprietor was very helpful. I would really recommend it to anyone looking to visit the area
Exceptionally well-presented holiday let - plenty of room with everything we needed. Very quiet, farm-land location with plenty of bird-life to keep us company and many places of interest nearby, including a local pub serving good food. Would happily stay here again.
We loved the peaceful, atmosphere of being in the middle of farmland. The nearest shop is a couple of miles away and access is via mostly single track road with passing points. That said there is little traffic and easy to negotiate. We were met by Kate who lives next door, she was friendly and helpful. The cottage itself is tastefully furnished and decorated. The rooms are spacious and full of personality. We slept well in the enormous bed and sat outside in the small front garden. We adored Kate's place and would definitely book again.
Had a great time here. Secluded spot with great views. Kate was a fabulous host and the cottage was perfect in every respect. Would be happy to recommend.
The Granary is comfortable and well equipped. We particularly liked the peaceful location and comfortable bed. Well situated for access to the Howardian Hills, the moors and the coast. One of the best cottages we have stayed in.
Our visit was just right, the peace and quiet is just amazing. Just sitting outside watching the hares jump around the field was a joy.
The property was just what we needed. Well equipped, clean and spacious.
A spotlessly clean cottage in a peaceful remote location. The owner couldn't be more helpful but respects your privacy. Really ideally located for all the top places to visit.
Perfectly peaceful stop over for a few days of R & R . Spotless clean and spacious cottage, ideal for 2, in a charming location. Close to plenty of classic land marks and traditional places to visit. Kate was super helpful when we had a little crisis and made us feel very welcome, but did not intrude in any way . Would highly recommend this great place.

About the host
Hosted by Kate Patmore
My new holiday cottage has been a labour of love to get off the ground! We live next door and look forward to welcoming you to our beautiful patch of Yorkshire. We are situated in the middle of our family's arable farm. After university, I enjoyed working in London for over ten years, before then returning home in 2007 to my beloved countryside, but continuing close working links with the south.
Why they chose this property
The Granary is so accessible to so many attractions if you feel like keeping busy, but is such a tranquil retreat if all you feel like doing is lighting a fire and realxing or sitting in the garden looking across the open fields. We have finished and accessorised the property to a high-end standard in 2016 so it is in immaculate condition, very comfortable and a relaxing place to be. We're close to the Moors, the coast, historic houses, museums, cities and local towns to explore - we have a bit of everything all on our doorstep.
What makes this property unique
The views! The peace and quiet. The spaciousness of the property despite it being only one bedroom - the rooms are all generously sized. The tasteful decor will feel calming and interesting. As a single storey barn conversion, it is also suitable for visitors with limited mobility.
