In the area

Walnut Cottage is a wonderfully wild self-catering retreat nestled in the sleepy village of Harwood Dale, just a short drive from Whitby, Robin Hood’s Bay, Filey and Flamborough and a stone’s throw from the seaside town of Scarborough.

Harwood Dale Forest is well worth exploring to experience the beauty of the surrounding scenery and offers lots of outdoor activities, including water sports, cycling and fishing.

A trip on the North Yorks Moors Railway provides an alternative way to discover this stunning corner of the country and there’s plenty to see and do either end. If you have a four-legged friend with you, there’s also bags of tail-wag-worthy walks from the doorstep. Find out more about Thirley Cotes Farm.

Beautiful cottage. We loved the hot tub and there were plenty of great walks for Freddie through local forests and on nearby beaches. Great shopping at York Retail Outlet. Had a relaxing holiday complete with great food, wine and company. Despite a few teething problems with the heating (which was dealt with very quickly by Amanda and the team - who were very friendly and approachable) we will be coming back with a few more people. Great base for everyone whether you want peace and quiet or to explore. See you soon.
