The Ticket Office - Ruswarp Near Whitby

The Property

An interesting and imaginative conversion of a stone-built Victorian Grade ll listed former ticket office, set in the centre of the bustling village of Ruswarp, 1.5 miles from Whitby. Offering quirky accommodation, this Ruswarp cottage provides a perfect hideaway for couples wanting to stay somewhere a little bit different! Retaining many original features, this Ruswarp cottage has a decorative cast iron fireplace, mullion windows and tongue and groove panelled walls. The attractive, open plan living space of this Ruswarp cottage has been sympathetically restored, with slate floors, a cosy ‘living flame’ gas fire and a small dining area overlooking the station platform. A spiral staircase leads up to a cabin-style bedroom and shower room, tucked into the eaves of the building. Decorated and maintained to a high standard, this Ruswarp cottage provides a comfortable holiday home with steam trains passing the door and excellent village amenities, including a good butcher’s, a local shop and a pub serving real ale and good food. With boating on the River Esk and a lovely waterside tea room, the locality has much to offer. The Esk Valley Walk runs through the village and a public footpath offers a pleasant walk into the historic port of Whitby, with its pretty harbour, sandy beaches and wide range of restaurants and shops. With the beautiful heather-clad moors and dramatic coastline to explore, this Ruswarp cottage is in the perfect location.
