Tucked away in the heart of the charming North Yorkshire town of Kirkbymoorside, this lovely cottage provides an ideal base for families or couples looking to explore this beautiful part of England. Just off the town’s main street, The Old Potting Shed is a garden-themed mews cottage set in a pretty, communal walled garden with its own enclosed, private patio area for al fresco dining or enjoying
the afternoon sun. The Old Potting Shed is in many ways a hidden treasure, providing a cosy hideaway set in a lovely garden, just moments from Kirkbymoorside town centre. The spacious sitting room features beamed ceilings and an exposed stone fireplace with wood burning stove. The stylish furnishings are enhanced throughout by individual photographic works of art created by the owner to complement the property’s garden theme. The open-plan kitchen/dining area offers a pleasant place to dine for up to four people, as well as all the practical equipment and white goods you need if self-catering for your holiday. Stairs from the dining area, which bend to the left, take you to the first floor where you will find a light and airy master bedroom with king-size bed, a family bathroom with a bath and shower overhead, and a second bright bedroom with twin beds that can be joined on request to create a 6’ super-king bed. The location of the property offers an oasis of calm within a stone’s throw of all the shops and eateries Kirkbymoorside has to offer. The cottage also benefits from off street parking and a garage, which is rare for this location in the historic conservation area of the town. There are a number of public footpaths and interesting walks around the town that can easily be accessed without even taking the car out of the drive! Kirkbymoorside is a great base for cycling in North Yorkshire, indeed the 2018 Tour de Yorkshire ran right through the town. Dalby Forest mountain bike trails and outdoor activity centre are just 30 minutes away. The town’s 18-hole golf club is also just around the corner from The Old Potting Shed. This lovely cottage is the perfect place for a romantic getaway, a break with friends or a family adventure in North Yorkshire. Guest reviews for 2023
