  • "We booked last minute so we could accompany family who were staying in Guisborough, we had used Chimes Cottage before and we fell in love with it then so it was an easy choice to use it again."

    For a single or couple with or without dogs it's fantastic!

    Mark thank you for taking the time to review the property, and welcome back to Chimes Cottage. The cottage has been welcoming visitors to Guisborough for over 10 years now, in fact we stayed their ourselves earlier this year for the first time and loved it too, so much that when we found out it was for sale we bought the cottage and took ownership in early September in the hope we could continue to provide a great place to stay, it is a relief to know that as a returning guest we are achieving just that. Thanks again and we look forwards to welcoming you again in the future. Andrew & Christine Property Owner

The property

Chimes Cottage is a delightful Grade II listed cottage in the popular market town of Guisborough in North Yorkshire, sitting in the enviable location of Church Square with views of Saint Nicholas Church and Guisborough Priory.

Chimes Cottage has been welcoming visitors for over 10 years to the region as a superb base for exploring the town itself and the delights of the area.

The popular Main Street of Westgate is just a 2 minute walk, take in the shops and stroll down Challoner Street for something different from the tempting sweet shop, cross the road to wander around Candlewick, then on to Daisy Bloom for something quirky. The North York moors are on your doorstep or take a short drive to explore the famous seaside town of Saltburn, or discover the relaxed feel of Runswick Bay. Drive a little further to spend a day in the Victorian splendour of Whitby and have lunch at the Magpie. Or for lovers of walking easily trails start at the front door of the cottage with the footpath by the Church leading you on to easy county circular walks out towards Guisborough Hall and surrounding woodland. For the more adventurous there is walks out through the local forest Rosebeery Topping and Captain Cooks Monument.

The owners have gone to great lengths to renovate this North Yorkshire cottage to the highest standard, set over two floors, the cottage exudes charm and character throughout.

Upstairs, you will find the double bedroom, with iron framed bed and exposed original beams giving the room a stylish, romantic feel.

The floor is complete with a lovely bathroom with a roll-top bath.

Downstairs, a welcoming sitting room awaits with a woodburner, ideal for snuggling in front of after a day out, sit back and relax in the comfortable electric recliner sofa with your favourite drink.

You will also find a well-equipped kitchen with everything you need to be home from home.

However if you feel like eating out the cottage is a short stroll to some of the towns best places to eat or drink.

The Monk for a relaxed pre dinner drink before walking down to Cookfella’s for dinner is a firm favourite evening for many of our guests.

To the rear, a small shared courtyard is provided, ideal for sitting out with a drink and taking in some fresh air and sunshine.

A first-class holiday cottage to enjoy a memorable holiday with that special someone!

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

Guisborough is an attractive market town set in rural surroundings on the edge of the North York Moors National Park. Steeped in history, Guisborough is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the town's most notable feature is the beautiful ruined abbey, Gisborough Priory; standing in full glory, to its original height of 97 feet, the dramatic gothic east gable towers high over the market town and has become a well-known icon of the town. This bustling small town has twice-weekly market days, a good selection of eateries, excellent pubs and many independent shops. Around Guisborough sits the spectacular woodland of Guisborough Forest. Guisborough Forest & Walkway is situated in Pinchinthorpe on the outskirts of Guisborough at the northern end of the A173. It extends for 2.5 miles along part of the route followed by the old Guisborough Branch Railway line, heading west towards Nunthorpe, and east to Guisborough Forest, which is managed by Forest Enterprise. It is a gateway site to the North York Moors National Park and offers splendid views of Roseberry Topping to the south. Points of local interest include Highcliff Nab and Hanging Stone. Captain Cook 92s Monument is also within walking distance. The Cleveland Way and the Tees Link walks pass through Guisborough Forest, and are just two of the many walking routes easily accessible to visitors. This super country park has cycle trails, walking routes, bridleways, a trim trail and an easier sculpture trail. The park includes the Guisborough Walkway which runs along the former trackbed of the Middlesbrough to Whitby railway line. This includes a wetland area with boardwalks, woodlands and grasslands. You can also climb Highcliff Nab for fabulous views of Teeside and the coast. The park is also very popular with mountain bikers with a number of super trails to explore. There is an excellent visitor centre with full details of all the trails in the park. The long distant trail of the Cleveland Way passes close by, whilst nearby Roseberry Topping is well worth the climb to take in the spectacular views. An easy thirty minute drive brings you to the Heritage Coastline, with historic villages and resorts, including Staithes, Saltburn and Whitby to enjoy.
