  • "We had a lovely stay at Foulsyke Farm Cottage."

    It was everything you could need for a stay and more. Very child friendly for my two 4yr olds. They loved seeing the animals and would eagerly look out of the “secret” window (porthole) every morning. Owners are very friendly and helpful. Honestly cannot fault this place/let at all. Highly recommend it and will be looking for availability for this let again. Thank you for a lovely stay.

  • "Lovely characterful cottage with every home comfort you would want."

    Pet-friendly and an ideal location to explore the local beaches and towns. Easy driving distance to Saltburn and Whitby. We loved the personal touches in the decor, which the owners had clearly taken a lot of care over and give the cottage great personality. Darrin and Vicky were perfect hosts and couldn't have been more helpful - even posting back personal items that were forgotten packing up. Thank you both!

    I’ve recommended & will continue to do so. My parents have also staying & loved it too. The owners are so welcoming & the farm is just amazing. The main cottage is a home from home with everything we needed. The welcome gifts are an added touch & they even remembered extra fire wood for us from the last stay.

    It had everything we needed and more! Spotlessly clean with the most comfortable beds. Great location to visit the beautiful Yorkshire coast and having farm animals outside your front door was amazing for the children. My daughter was upset to go home and leave them! Highly recommend this property and would definitely go back.

  • "Another comfortable and excellent stay at Foulsyke Farm, From booking the adjacent bungalow last year and then the Farm Cottage this year."

    Again we wanted for nothing and the owners were only next door if we did need them. Cottage is very comfortable and we were able to relax and unwind after a days exploring with ease. The convenience of the bus stop at the bottom of the drive was handy for us again to spend a day in Whitby without having to park in the town and also runs later than the Whitby Park and Ride.

    Thank you for the lovely feedback and for returning to stay at Foulsyke a second time. We are glad you had another lovely stay Property Owner

    The cottage was exceptionally clean. (It’s most probably the cleanest we have stayed in with Sykes). The cottage was extremely comfortable and well equipped. The welcome basket was a great touch and saves you rushing to the shops for milk and teabags. It was great that all the goodies were local to the area. We even had a little pot of fresh honey made by Darrin’s bees. Teddy our dog liked the touches that were especially for him the little treats; dog bowls, blanket and towel were well appreciated. Our 2 year old loved the chickens, goats, pigs and horses and being allowed to feed the animals as they roam around the farm yard. He also got to sit on the tractor and cuddle Bertie the goat. Our hosts were friendly and welcoming and had great local knowledge and directed us to the best beaches and rock pools. Nothing was too much trouble and we had an uneventful stay. The cottage was well situated and a short drive from most local amenities form the railways, beaches, amusements, rock pools, Puffins and not forgetting the Yorkshire moors. We have had a fantastic time here and will be back next year! Many thanks to Vicky, Darrin and Joseph our fantastic hosts it was great chatting to you all!

  • "A very cosy/comfortable cottage with very welcoming hosts."

    There are footpaths close by and a bus stop on the doorstep,- very useful for linear walks along the coast, as on the main bus route. The welcome pack of goodies was unexpected and very welcome -a nice thoughtful touch. We had everything we needed and would return here.

  • "Wonderful Place to Stay Lovely place to stay, cosy and comfortable, furnishings throughout and a nice surprise welcome pack on arrival."

    The Landlords were very friendly and welcoming, and were on hand if needed (all was great for us though apart from me leaving one item behind and having to go back for it). Can't say enough nice things about the place and its great location for exploring the North Yorkshire Moors and Cost Line , we covered from Redcar down to Scarborough and the moors in between however some form of transport is required either your own or local Buses (Bus stop right outside the door). Would definitely recommend this to everyone and would love to visit again in the future.

The property

Found between the bustling town of Loftus and Easington, a short drive away from the majestic landscape of the North Yorkshire National Park is Foulsyke Farm Cottage.

This charming, semi-detached property is the perfect base for families or a last minute break for a group of friends to spend some quality time together and explore all that this part of Yorkshire has to offer.

There are 22 acres to roam in with goats, pigs, chickens and horses, and lots of outdoor space for children to run around in.

Admire the character of the stone-built property before stepping through the stable door and into the kitchen/diner, where the charm of the property is still apparent.

Look forward to catering your own culinary delights within the spacious kitchen, where you can pack a picnic for tomorrow’s adventure or have a special treat bake in the electric oven.

Within the kitchen you will find a washing machine and a dishwasher, as well as a dining space to enjoy your home-cooked meals with all your loved ones around you.

Moving through the property will bring you to the sitting area, where a seating arrangement is positioned in front of a Smart TV and a woodburning stove, offering a relaxing space to unwind after an action-packed day.

Heading up the stairs, you will find three elegantly-appointed bedrooms, comprising of a king-size bedroom and two double bedroom, making an ideal set up for groups of couples, families or friends.Foulsyke Farm has its very own bus stop at the bottom of the lane, the Arriva X4 route can take you south to Whitby 14 miles away or North 18 miles to Middlesbrough.

If you can tear yourself away from this dwelling, head into to nearby town of Loftus, where a whole host of amenities awaits you, including convenience shops, pubs, restaurants and takeaways, catering to all needs.

For days out, venture to Saltburn-by-the-Sea to enjoy a traditional day by the seaside, where you can laze on the glorious sands or soak up the views of the sea during a ride on the Saltburn Cliff tramway.

Alternatively, head in the other direction and spend time in the charming seaside village of Staithes where you can walk Yorkshire's cliff top paths or enjoy the delights of rock pooling and fossil hunting on the village’s small beach.

A public footpath runs alongside the farm which leads to The Cleveland Way, less than a mile away.

Where the farm path joins the Cleveland Way is at the top of some of the highest cliffs on the east coast with spectacular views to the north towards Saltburn and the south towards Staithes.

However before you reach the cliffs you will walk past Street House Farm where archaeologists discovered a Neolithic long cairn dating from 3300BC.

The site contains the Saxon Princess bed burial, one of only a dozen known in the UK and certainly the most northernly, as the majority are on the south coast.

Spectacular artefacts were discovered buried with the princess including gold set scallop shaped jewels which are now on permanent display at nearby Kirkleatham Museum.

A scenic car journey along the coastline will take you to the resort town of Whitby which plays to a superb selection of amenities and attractions including the ruined Abbey which overlooks the coast and reached by the famous 199 steps and the Captain Cook Memorial Museum.

The village of Loftus lies 14 miles north of Whitby on the east coast of Yorkshire.

Loftus is well placed for discovering the small coastal villages of Runswick Bay and Staithes, the latter being a popular choice for artists. Four miles to the north is the elegant spa town of Saltburn with its golf club and long pier stretching over the wide sands. The stunning North Yorkshire Moors countryside is on the doorstep and the Jurassic fossil coast lies to the south.
