Description

Moles House situated in Egton Bridge, a perfect retreat overlooking the river between the North Yorkshire Moors and the Yorkshire Coast, providing a comfortable, relaxing break for large families or groups of friends. This quiet village with the River Esk running through it has two local pubs is just 8 miles from the historic seaside town of Whitby with its historic Abbey and the 199 steps, beautiful beaches and bustling harbour. There is a direct train service from Egton Bridge to Whitby for those who would prefer this type of relaxing, scenic journey. Just 4 miles in the other direction across the North York Moors you will find Goathland, also known as the fictional ‘Aidensfield’ on TV's long-running Heartbeat series. Enjoy a trip on the North Yorkshire Moors heritage steam railway at Grosmont which is 2 miles away. Permits for fishing are available enabling guests to take full advantage of this tranquil waterside location.
Leave your coats and boots in the spacious entrance and head into the main house. The lounge with comfy sofas and a wood burner has fantastic views over the river. Home to a Smart TV as well as games and books, all generations will find something to occupy themselves for chilled-out evenings. The spacious kitchen has all the equipment you could want including a small breakfast table for enjoying your morning coffee. It leads into the utility area where you will find a washing machine, fridge/freezer and microwave. From the kitchen, you can move through to the sunroom, a great space where good food, drink and conversation will flow easily around the large wooden table. The room is the perfect place to sit and take in the views and look out for the local birdlife, pheasants, rabbits or sheep, with lambs in spring. The kitchen is well equipped to rustle up some delicious meals or a picnic to take out for the day. The ground floor also boasts a contemporary shower room adjacent to a large twin bedroom, ideal for those who don't want to use the stairs or teenagers who would like a little bit of their own space. Stepping up to the first floor you will find three good-sized bedrooms, two king-size and one triple, all benefitting from far-reaching views. To complete the accommodation there is the contemporary family bathroom.

Outside, to the front, the terraced garden overlooks the river, the perfect place to sit with a glass of wine and watch the salmon jump. At the rear of the house is a secure patio area that overlooks the fields. Spend a relaxing time watching the birds visit the bird feeders in the garden or the animals in the fields beyond and breathe in the fresh country air. There is a charcoal BBQ you can enjoy on warmer days.
Opposite the house you will find two sets of stepping stones taking you across the river to The Horseshoe Inn which serves home cooked food, there are a further three pubs/restaurants within walking distance.

Fantastic

By Gilly on 03-Feb-2025

Amazing place, in an amazing place. Near to all the sightseeing areas but the rural feel. Egton Bridge itself has a train station so you can avoid the traffic and parking in Whitby and hop on the train. The house itself is beautifully decorated with all the facilities you could want. Lovely comfy beds, woodburner for those chilly evenings and a fantastic view from the garden overlooking the river. Had a really enjoyable stay and will definitely be back,

Thank you so much for your lovely review, hopefully we will see you again sometime in the future! Thanks Naomi

Marvelous Moles House!

By Hogarth on 21-Sep-2024

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Moles House. We stayed a few days to celebrate my partner's birthday with friends. We found it very homely as well as spacious, with loads of space for 3 couples. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed, and specially liked the conservatory/breakfast room, which is light and bright... and had a lovely view of the fields behind the property. We ate breakfast in the in the morning, watching the hares and pheasants! Everything was beautifully decorated, with lovely decorative touches. We stayed in the biggest of the bedrooms... which was absolutely lovely! The upstairs bathroom looked brand new and was spotless. The properly is perfectly situated in egton bridge, very nearly the train station... we had a lovely day in Whitby. Cannot fault it! Thank you Moles House. We will visit again soon!

A beautiful place to stay, lovely views and walks surrounding

By Annabel H on 27-Jul-2024

Just back from staying a week at Moles House with the family (8 of us plus dog) A beautiful clean, tidy house, equipped with everything you need ( including all baby cot/highchair etc), really comfy beds and beautifully decorated with themed animal rooms too. So much to do nearby, the best walks, countryside and coastal places to visit. Our own family favourite is Robin Hoods Bay, however, there are beautiful walks and pubs surrounding Moles House too. We would recommend Moles House to all. Thank you Naomi

First rate family home.

By Sunshine676 on 06-Jul-2024

House was lovely, roomy and very well equipped for the eight of us. So many nice touches that made our stay more enjoyable - from themed rooms to flowers on the dining room table. The welcome pack was a nice touch too. Everyone commented on the comfortable beds and the grand children enjoyed the ‘shop’ and various games supplied especially the Lego. The house is in a fabulous location - nice and quiet but in easy reach of lots of picturesque places and beaches. Thank you Naomi for all the thought and effort you have put into making Mole House such a lovely holiday home from home!

Christmas stay

We stayed with friends over the Xmas week. The house is fully equipped and we made many happy memories there. Great communication from the owner and a lovely welcome basket. The house was beautifully decorated for Christmas. We didn’t want to leave.
