Delightful cosy cottage in rural North Yorkshire. Open beams and a wood burning stove make the accommodation homely and welcoming. The cottage, named after the beck which flows through the village and my garden, is situated just outside Kilburn. Nestled below the Howardian Hills with fantastic views of the Kilburn White Horse, Twattleton Cottage is an ideal base for walking, cycling and sight seeing. The outside patio and decking area is a wonderful place to sit on an evening and pass the time.
Hi I’m Angela and I’ve lived in Kilburn most of my life. The area surrounding the cottage is stunning and such a beautiful place to live. I only interact with guests if they wish. I can be contacted anytime and can pop to see you at your request. If you have any questions or requirements please don’t hesitate to contact me.
The cottage has a large double bedroom and a single bedroom. The bathroom also has a shower above the bath. There is one step up to the main bedroom and one step from the kitchen to the living area. Parking for a second car is also available, please ask. A BBQ can be provided for use on the patio only. Twattleton Cottage is located on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors and is an ideal base for anyone wanting to visit the historic market towns of Thirsk, Helmsley & Pickering. The Forresters Arms in Kilburn village (0.7 miles) serve food from 12pm and perfect if you want to visit the Robert (Mousey) Thompson visitors centre and showroom, then perhaps tackle a walk up the White Horse. The Kilburn White Horse has free parking near the bottom or at the very top near the Yorkshire Gliding Club which is also worth a visit. Sutton Bank & Lake Gormire are a little further and a fantastic place for walking with outstanding views. Thirsk is just a few miles away, famous for James Herriot and Horse Racing (taxi numbers provided). 1.5 miles away is the village of Coxwold where you will find Shandy Hall, home of Tristram Shandy also the Fauconberg Arms and a tearoom. A little further along is Newburgh Priory. Byland Abbey is lovely and has free entry.
