The attractive old market town of Kirkbymoorside lies on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, in between the towns of Helmsley and Pickering. It is a charming place, full of Yorkshire character, and is the centre for the local farms and villages. Visitors will find a variety of shops from tea rooms, pubs and restaurants to antique shops, while there is a market day on Wednesday. The excellent walking and magnificent scenery of the National Park are close by, as are the picturesque villages of Hutton-le-Hole and Lastingham. Pickering is the base of the North York Moors Steam Railway - a ‘must do’ day out for all visitors to the area. York, Whitby and the Yorkshire Coast are within easy driving distance.
A delightful, Grade II listed, stone-built end-terraced cottage, on the edge of the attractive market town of Kirkbymoorside.

Built in the mid 1700s, the property is full of character and charm with a slightly quirky and interesting layout. The ground floor comprises a spacious farmhouse style kitchen with feature fireplace and lovely window seat, while the comfortable sitting room, with open ceiling, exposed beams and open fire, sits atop the property on the second floor. A small courtyard garden is ideal for an evening tipple or two, and a short walk takes guests into the centre of this interesting and lively 'old' town.

Lovely cottage - lovely location, central to everything
Miss Washtell, Benfleet, February 2013
A most comfortable cottage. We enjoyed everything that Crooked Cottage had to offer. Their in-house brochure advised of walks in the area and also restaurants in the village, all proved to be excellent. We would certainly recommend this cottage and Sykes cottages for the way we received all the necessary information well in advance, prior to us leaving our own home. Thank you!

The cottage was very comfortable and perfectly situated to explore North Yorkshire. The town of Kirkbymoorside was extremely friendly and everyone made us feel very welcome. Nice local pub about a minutes walk away, which is dog friendly too. We would recommend Crooked Cottage to anyone.
