A bit more information about

Our Cottages

Gowland Farm Cottages are charming barn conversions only two miles from the coast, ideally placed between Whitby and Scarborough. Boasting an onsite heated, indoor swimming pool as well as a scenic rural location.  You can start each day with an invigorating swim, or wind down in an evening in the clear warm water that is kept at a comfortable 28 degrees C. There is also a sauna in the pool room which can be used at an additional cost.  Besides the pool room you have a BBQ area with picnic benches and elevated views over the surrounding countryside. This destination is a haven for wildlife, where you can catch glimpses of deer as they venture from the woodland. Also on site you have a games room, which has pool table as well as a table tennis table.

The cottages are only a couple of miles outside of the peaceful village of Cloughton, which has two friendly local pubs, serving lovely homemade meals.  The nearest coastal spot is Hayburn Wyke, where you have a woodland walk with a waterfall cascading over the cliff top onto a secluded cove.  There is an 18th-century coaching inn here, serving hearty meals as well as tasty desserts in front of a roaring open fire.  The Cleveland Way and the Cinder Track are scenic walking trails nearby, taking in Ravenscar and Robin Hood’s Bay on the way towards the seafaring town of Whitby.

The North Yorkshire Moors National Park has some delightful little villages amongst the vast stretches of heather strewn hills and valleys.  There is also the ancient Dalby Forest which has brilliant cycle and walking trails to be explored.  Enjoy the great outdoors and take in your surroundings whilst having a welcoming base to return to, making your holiday one to treasure.  For family days out in Scarborough you have the Alpamare water park as well as the sea life centre.  Inland you have Flamingoland theme park and zoo.
