Oakwood

Oakwood is a period property spread across three floors in North Yorkshire, sleeping eight across four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The ground floor centres on a living room with a multi-fuel burner and a kitchen-diner that opens onto a patio; the first floor holds two zip-and-link super king bedrooms (each can split into singles) and a family bathroom; upstairs are two double bedrooms and a shower room. Essentials including electricity, wifi, bed linen and towels are covered, and there is initial fuel for the burner. One dog stays free of charge.

The house blends original features—fireplaces, high ceilings, church-reclaimed dining chairs—with a fitted kitchen that lets you cook properly. An enclosed patio with outdoor furniture sits overlooking countryside. This is a place suited to families, groups or couples wanting space and a base for exploring both the North York Moors and the coastal heritage area nearby. The nearest village has a pub, butcher and fish and chip shop. No smoking inside. Parking is on the road.
