    . Good directions when found in the light and handily placed for days out.. The hosts were very friendly and generous with time and effort and information.. The bonus, if it suits, is to be able to feed chickens and alpacas morning or evening and to keep a roaring log burner going .. This is one of the many cottages we have stayed that I look forward to staying in again.

  • "Our stay at Nora's Nook was for us to wind down and have some peace and quite, it's certainly very quite we loved it."

    The cottage is amazing it's sits on about 40 acres of farm land and is one of 2 cottages and the original farm house where the hosts live. There are animals to pet and feed all very friendly the Alpacas are adorable Bill, Ben and Bob come trotting over to see you when ever you walk by. A handy tub of food is available to use which is in the container out side the cottage. There are also sheep cows horses and chickens. There are loads of trails to walk we mostly enjoyed walking round the farm with our small dog. It is a working farm but we could go anywhere without restrictions. The cottage is lovely with generous touches. Fresh eggs from the farm chocolate and prosecco. It is very comfortable we even lit the log burner one evening with sticks and logs supplied by the hosts. This cottage is a fine example of how a holiday let should be run, attention to detail is exceptional the hosts who live and work on the farm always stop what they are doing to chat and enjoy their guests nothing is to much trouble. We really enjoyed our few days here and we will most definitely be back. Thank you Dave and Sarita Phil Rita and Poppy.

  • "Norah's Nock cottage is well equipped and very nice."

    Well stocked kitchen. We loved the wood burning fire in the living room. The owner is friendly and welcoming. The cottage is well situated, and near to some local market towns, with an hours traveling you can get to Scarborough or Whitby. There are lots of local walks too, but to south you to have to cross a stream on stepping stones. We ate at the pub in Gillamoor on two nights great meals. Only give 3 stars for two reasons, would have given more, 1 - My wife is visually impaired, there are three steps (two outside to get into cottage and one into kitchen), none are marked. The two outside are a problem as there is no exterior lighting. There is a sensored light facing into the court yard on the cottage next door, but was not turned on and the courtyard and steps area is pitch black on a night, this may be ok in summer but not in winter. 2 - site advertises "Broadband / WiFi". This does not exist. Wi-Fi is provided by a Devolo wi-fi repeater which is out of range/or very limit of range of main hub. We had wi-fi for part of first night. No signal for rest of stay. Cottage needs a second hub fitted as there is no cellular signal here either. We had no way of contacting our family back home. We had to go to pub in Gillamoor to get wi-fi/cellular signal.

  • "This lovely little hideaway is on a remote farm with absolutely no mobile signal, absolutely dependent on wifi for everything The owners of the cottage were very friendly and approachable."

    While we were there, the wifi had a major wobble, but they worked to solve the problem as quickly as possible. Norah's Nook is small and cosy, with a bath as well as a shower, which was very welcome after a long walk! There is also 2 loos, which was brilliant. The Kitchen is fairly well equipped, and the freezer is in a shed/utility room across the yard. There is an icebox in the fridge, though. There is no washing machine. On arrival the gift of eggs (laid by the chickens on the farm), milk, cookies, and prosecco was most welcome. We took half a dozen eggs away with us when we left. The info said they were for sale, but the owner of the farm didn't charge us. The wonderful thing about Norah's Nook is the animals on the farm - the aforementioned chickens, sheep, cows, ponies, and Alpacas! Both Norah's Nook and Erica's 'eaven have boxes outside with food for the animals in, and occupants are invited to feed the animals. We had the alpacas eating out of our hands - wonderful! You need a car to get to most places, but we found a railway station half an hour drive away in Castle Moor, and were able to catch a train from there to Whitby for the day. Car parking is free. There are several walks in the area, some which start from the cottage. We would definitely recommend this cottage, and hope to stay there again at some point in the future.

They even left a starter pack that included eggs from their hens (and there was a variety of types), a bottle of Prosecco, and doggie treats (sadly, no dog with us ... so we left them for the next residents). Given its rural location, the WiFi was surprisingly fast. Full marks. We will be back.

    Over the years we've stayed in many self catering cottages and this is one of the best equipped. We found everything we needed in the cottage so we only needed clothes and food which makes things so much easier than rattling up the A1 with washing up liquid, toilet rolls and tin foil. We had dreadful weather but were warm with the heating on and enjoyed the log burner. Despite the weather there was plenty to keep us occupied and we found suitable walks, saw and heard lots of wildlife, though we would love to be there in the sunshine, make use of the sun beds and do the walks from the door. We enjoyed the hospitality, generosity and kindness of the owners and would love to return. This area is truly beautiful, full of history, stories, and excellent tea shops!

Harland Beck Farm Cottages

These two charming, single-storey stone barn conversions (Norah's Nook and Erica's 'eaven) are located within the owners’ grounds in a courtyard setting, on their 40-acre farm with Belted Galloway cattle amidst the spectacular scenery of Farndale, 2.5 miles from Kirkbymoorside in the heart of the North York Moors National Park. Offering all ground floor accommodation, these attractive cottages are the perfect hideaway for couples wanting peace and tranquillity, but are conveniently located within a few minutes’ drive to the surrounding pretty market towns. They are bright and cheerful, with modern kitchens and bathrooms and comfortable sitting rooms, providing very welcoming holiday homes. Outside, guests can relax on the sunny patios, in the sheltered courtyards and savour the stunning moorland countryside, where beautiful walks lead straight from the door. If visiting in springtime, be sure to try the renowned Daffodil Walk which leads from the end of the drive, where a traditional, local inn awaits you at the end of your journey! Also on the farm are a small herd of Grey Faces Dartmoor sheep and lambs. There are also 3 tame Alpaccas and a couple of horses, and there are farm chickens laying fresh eggs. Kirkbymoorside has an excellent array of quality cafes, independent shops, restaurants and pubs, as well as a weekly market. Golfers will delight in the parkland golf course on the edge of this popular market town. Nearby Pickering is the terminus of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, which winds its way through heather-clad countryside, steaming along to Grosmont. With numerous historic properties in the area, including Helmsley Castle, Duncombe Park and Castle Howard, these cottages will appeal to all.
