The Property

Sleights 0.5 miles. A fabulous, detached stone period property, a former farmhouse, in the hamlet of Iburndale on the edge of Sleights village. Oozing olde worlde charm and character, this delightful Sleights cottage retains beamed ceilings, stripped boarded doors and original fireplaces. Upstairs in this Sleights cottage are three spacious bedrooms, one boasting a double ended bath, each individually styled to provide very restful sleeping accommodation. Equally spacious, the downstairs sitting room and dining room are traditionally furnished with a homely feel, in keeping with the age of the property. With an open fire in the sitting room, a woodburner in the dining room and an AGA in the kitchen, this Sleights cottage is warm and comfortable and a joy to come back to after a day out exploring the local area. This Sleights cottage is perfect for a family break or friends get together. A special feature of this Sleights cottage are the private, extensive gardens, both front and back with mature trees and shrubs and a cobbled courtyard – you can just imagine the horses being tethered there in bygone years! Sleights village has excellent amenities, with a renowned butcher’s, local baker’s and grocer’s, plus two pubs which both serve food. A five minute drive brings you into the popular seaside town of Whitby, with its pretty harbour, narrow winding streets and famous Abbey. Climb the 199 steps up to the Abbey, take a bracing cliff top walk on the Cleveland Way or sample the famous fish and chips! With its long sandy beaches, complete with donkeys’ in the summer months and excellent eateries, Whitby has something for everyone. Explore the spectacular North York Moors, take a trip back in time on the steam railway or discover the many pretty inland and coastal villages such as Robin Hood’s Bay, Staithes, Sandsend and Goathland (home of 'Heartbeat'). A truly wonderful Sleights cottage, whatever the time of year.

Congratulations to Cliff Farm Cottage in providing first class accommodation and helpful support for customers. We look forward to returning there in the future! Thanks Sykes staff one again for arranging our holiday in a lovely cottage at short notice and on a non-standard start day. As usual we were not disappointed, as we have been with other cottage companies. It's great to know we can always rely on you.

The cottage was very warm and cosy and the beds were comfortable. It was also private but near to lots of amenities.
