This former police station retains the character of its Victorian origins while serving as a spacious base for large groups. The Old Police House has seven bedrooms spread across three floors, with four bathrooms to serve up to 14 guests. Four of the bedrooms have ensuite facilities; the others share the family bathroom on the first floor, which includes a walk-in shower. Several beds are zip-and-link models that convert from super kingsize to two singles, giving flexibility for different group compositions.
The ground floor centres on a kitchen and dining room with electric cooking, dishwasher and the usual appliances, opening onto a patio. There are two living rooms with smart televisions, a separate utility room and a cloakroom. The garden includes a hot tub (for up to six), a sunken firepit, sitting areas and a barbecue. Parking for five cars is available on the property. Wi-Fi, electricity, bed linen, towels and heating are included; pets stay free. The house is non-smoking.
Middlesbrough has museums, restaurants and shops; Christ Church is nearby. The North Yorkshire countryside offers walks and cycling, with bike storage provided. Families will appreciate travel cots and highchairs on hand.

Beautiful property to spend our Christmas holiday. Tastefully decorated to the highest standard, squeaky clean, quality linen, and so much more. Lovley personel touches too. Everything was perfect, highly recommended.

Just returned from our 2nd stay at the old police house, and again had a lovely weeks stay in this fabulous accommodation in the nice friendly village in Great Ayton which is in a good location to visit the coast or the North Yorkshire moors. Nice touch from the owners leaving us milk, wine and other nice bits. Good secure accommodation with electric gates. And nice to come back after a day out and relax in the hot tub. Plenty of dog friendly pubs and cafe's in Great ayton. I would highly recommend the G & tea cafe which also has a lovely outside bar / terrace situated a mile away and can be accessed by an off road walk.

Fantastic find in a gorgeous village! Cannot praise this fab hidden gem highly enough! It has been designed to make the most of every inch of space and is perfectly equipped whether you're cooking a full on meal or grabbing a snack! We loved the hot tub with a beer on the evening before chilling in the comfiest bed! Josh and Laura can't do enough to help and are the perfect hosts! Absolutely brilliant and can't recommend it highly enough!

Stayed in The Old Police Cottage and it was perfect. The cottage has recently been renovated and is finished to a high standard throughout, a lovely charming cottage. It was immaculately clean throughout with high quality fixtures, good quality bedding, towels and robes. Dog friendly too which is always a bonus. It is ideally located in the village for enjoying the facilities of Great Ayton and the surrounding countryside. Would definitely recommend this cottage to friends and family.
