Description from owner

Description

Doodale Cottage is a spacious one bedroom grade II listed converted stone barn. The cottage is located on a small working farm on the outskirts of Malton in the village of Old Malton. Within easy walking distance of the cottage are 2 pubs that both serve good Yorkshire food.

With easy access to the A64, the cottage is an ideal base from which to explore the many different attractions of North Yorkshire including York, the coastal towns of Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay, the market towns of Malton, Pickering and Helmsley and the scenic North Yorkshire Moors.

The open plan cottage has WiFi and underfloor heating in addition to a wood burning stove.

The main door opens into a well equipped fitted kitchen with modern appliances including a full sized dishwasher, fridge freezer and microwave. The kitchen and dining area are separated from the living area by a central wood burning stove. The comfortable living area has a leather sofa, two wing back chairs, TV and a selection of games, books and local maps.

The upstairs has a glass balcony, a king and single bed, to give flexibility in sleeping arrangements, and a shower room. Towels, linen, a box of logs, gas and electricity are included in the rental costs.

Outside there is a small garden with table and bench seats and off road parking for up to 2 cars.

For people wishing to explore further, the farm track is a pleasant walk and usually our fold of pedigree Highland Cattle can be seen. They vary in age from calves born in 2020 to mature cows and our bull, Alexander. A few of our cows are pregnant, with their calves expected in April and May 2021.
