    I am so sorry to hear that you struggled with the door, I wish you had given us a call and we would have come and fixed it for you. We will ensure it is planed off and easier to open. Thank you for your feedback! Property Owner

    "The property was absolutely amazing and so well equipped."

    My only criticism was parking. It may be that I missed this but travelling alone, with a very needy dog, I struggled to manage her and sort all my luggage because I had to park further down the street. There were 2 fiat 500s parked outside the whole time and there just wasn't enough space for me to get on the end without blocking the driveway. I appreciate that there is probably little the owners can do to sort this but thought it worth mentioning.

    I am so sorry you had a difficult time parking. The driveway further up is being refurbished so it has tightened things up even further than normal. The cars belong to the houses behind the cottage, unfortunately all built before we all had cars so no parking spaces. Thank you for being so understanding! Property Owner

    "Lilac Cottage is a lovely cottage that had everything we needed."

    The downstairs bathroom is a major plus. I felt so comfortable having my dog there as I felt he was as welcome as I was. It was quiet and we were could sit in either the front or back garden and enjoy it (we chose the front, so we could enjoy the sunshine in the late afternoon) The Plough is a short walk up the street and we had a lovely chat with the gentleman behind the bar who was very welcoming. We enjoyed the local area and thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back to Lilac Cottage. Thank you.

    We are so happy to hear you and your dog enjoyed your stay! Thank you so much for choosing us! Property Owner

    Comfy bed and lounge! Well situated, easy on street parking! Amazing shower although did leak through the ceiling a bit, kitchen sink tap also leaked a bit!

    Thank you for such a positive review. The tap has now been fixed but the shower is a puzzle. We have a small window between bookings so we aim to get it sorted. Thank you for choosing our little cottage. Property Owner

    "What a fantastic cottage, warm and cosy - and it was proper cold out the week we were there."

    Great shower, lovely comfy bed, and a great kitchen with full sized fridge. Thank you for the welcome pack - especially the little cakes, one with a candle! Lovely thought to have not only provided us with raw organic milk, but also left us with directions on how to find the farm - we re-filed the bottle once, and then took 2L home with us too! Perfect location for great dog walking country. We will recommend, and hope to come back again soon.

    only minor point it would have been nice to turn the lights down when relaxing in the evening watching TV. Thanks for the goodies greatly appreciated.

    "Comfortable and well equipped cottage."

    Unfortunately the water heater failed at the beginning of our stay (probably before we arrived) but was repaired the same day that we reported it so we were able to enjoy the excellent separate shower in the bathroom. Wombleton is a good base for Rievaulx Terrace and Abbey, Nunnington Hall and Helmsley, Pickering and Scarborough castles as well as the North York Moors Railway. There a handy circular walk past the pub and back down Page Lane for anyone with a dog (with 3 dog pooh bins). At dusk there are bats in Page Lane.

The property

Lilac Cottage is nestled in the delightful village of Wombleton, North Yorkshire, enveloped around an abundance of hiking and biking trails, courtesy of being easily accessible to North York Moors National Park.

It is an idyllic base for families seeking to immerse themselves in the Yorkshire countryside.

Upon entry, be delighted by the characterful interior with exposed wooden beams and original furniture pieces, providing a perfect blend of comfort and character.

The generous kitchen is ideal to whip up delicious meals together, with an array of marvellous amenities.

When it's time to serve, indulge in some family bonding around the dining table as you plan the following day's itinerary.

Afterwards, curl up in the living room with your favourite programme on the TV as the evening's entertainment.

When nighttime rolls around, retire in a double or a twin room on the first floor, making it a real haven for easy and convenient living.

In the morning, get ready in style at the dressing table in the double bedroom, before indulging in your morning coffee outdoors amidst the occasional bird song.

Stroll to Beadland Grange Farm shop for some fresh breakfast and purchase your evening stock.

Bird watchers will be thrilled by the National Centre for Bird of Prey, and be mesmerized by hawks, eagle owls, and other birds of prey.

For the adrenalin junkies, head to Flamingo Land Resort with a plethora of rides, big and small, as well as a zoo home to unique species, all while contributing to conservation.

Immerse yourself in the healing powers of North York Moors National Park by experiencing the great outdoors in every aspect; meander through the sandy coastlines at Runswick Bay, attend one of the many village shows/ music events, skim through the treetops at Go Ape, surf, bike, kayak, horse ride around the surroundings, or indulge in the monuments just bursting with heritage, truly showcasing the versatility of the landscape.

Head to the Howardian Hills National Landscape and explore the friendly villages scattered around, taste-test the local delicacies, and grab a keepsake at one of the independent boutiques.

Photographers and history-lovers will enjoy a tour of Castle Howard House and Grounds, or the National Trust Nunnington Hall, with picture-postcard landscapes at every angle.

Lilac Cottage invites you to book a stay near the North York Moors National Park for a memory-filled holiday.
