Beautiful converted farm building with exposed beams and high ceilings
Welcome to the rural heart of North Yorkshire - to Ryedale, Malton and our home village of Slingsby. Our cottage provides the ideal base for touring, walking, cycling and exploring the many picturesque villages, stately homes and attractions of the region.
In Slingsby you will find a pub, farm shop and children's play park. Nearby are the market towns of Malton, Kirkbymoorside, Pickering and Helmsley, while York and the East Coast are also within easy reach.
The Stables is furnished to a very high standard, with all the facilities needed for a comfortable stay. Telephone and wifi are available and the accommodation has been sympathetically converted from old farm buildings, providing a cosy and well maintained home from home. In addition, the cottage is on ground floor level with easy access.
It is a few years since we set to work converting the old stables into a cosy holiday cottage, and we're very pleased with the result. The Stables retains many of its original features: high kitchen ceilings, exposed wood beams and attractive stonework. There is also wifi and a phone, widescreen TV with Freeview, DVD player and a well-equipped kitchen.
The Stables holiday cottage is full of the kind character and original charm you might expect from a converted farm building. Add to this the many home comforts and facilities provided, and you have a most agreeable and comfortable way to spend a week self-catering in North Yorkshire.
