  • "Excellent cottage in the middle of the lovely village of Thornton Le Dale with the added private parking behind the cottage."

    The owners have thought of everything within the cottage for comfort and self catering. Welcome pack was lovely. Excellent cottage information and ideas for visiting around the area. We visited Scarborough, Robins Hood Bay, Castle Howard, York, North Yorkshire Moors Railway to Whitby and Bridlington. Would love to go back and can thoroughly recommend this cottage.

    Thank you very much Lynne. Really pleased you enjoyed your stay and fully explored North Yorkshire! Property Owner

  • "Clean,well equipped cottage."

    2 minute walk to village centre and easy drive to coast and North Yorkshire moors. Would skip the 2 pubs in the centre and go up the hill from the lights to Fox and Rabbit 3 miles away. Good beer and far better food here.

  • "Fantastic property."

    Well equipped and in a great location. The welcome basket was a lovely touch. We had a problem the last few days as the boiler broke and we had no hot water. This was handled swiftly and professionally by both Sykes and the owners. I would highly recommend Glenrae to anyone looking for a lovely stay in Yorkshire. We look forward to visiting again.

  • "We found the accommodation first rate in every aspect."

    The location was perfect for what we wanted to do giving access by both private and public transport to places we wanted to visit. The property was clean and really well equipped with useful welcoming items on arrival. The only thing my wife would suggest is a non slip mat in the bath/shower. In all other aspects inside and out it was very welcoming and perfect.

    Hi Alan - thank you very much for your review. We’re really pleased you enjoyed Glenrae. Good suggestion on the non slip bath/shower mat, have just ordered one. We’d be delighted if you chose to make a return visit. All the best, Vicky & Richard. Property Owner

Glenrae is a pretty cottage situated in the heart of Thornton-Le-Dale, North Yorkshire, within the stunning North York Moors National Park.

With off-road parking, an electric fire, and proximity to a local pub and shop, it offers a cheerful abode for families or friends seeking a warm countryside escape.

Inside, you'll be charmed by a snug sitting room, complete with a TV and an electric fire, perfect for those chilly evenings.

Moving through the property, you will find a kitchen/diner, well-equipped for all your culinary needs, where you can gather around the table to enjoy home-cooked meals as a family.

Upstairs, a relaxing nook awaits—a perfect retreat for quiet moments.

Tucked away with a TV, it’s an ideal spot for curling up with a good book or unwinding with your favorite shows.

When night falls, two well-presented bedrooms call: a king room, complete with a TV for those leisurely mornings in bed, and a welcoming twin room, ready to embrace you in comfort for a restful night's sleep.

The bathroom, complete with a bath and overhead shower, offers a space to freshen up after a day of exploring.

Outside, the property boasts an enclosed rear garden, featuring a mix of gravel and a large lawn area.

Here, you can enjoy a spot of alfresco dining using the provided picnic bench and barbecue, or enjoy a cup of coffee on the garden chairs, making the most of the serene surroundings.

A handy cloakroom with a basin and WC completes the interior of this delightful retreat.

If you can tear yourself away from the comforts of Glenrae, step outside and explore the chocolate-box village of Thornton-Le-Dale.

Enjoy a stroll through the picturesque streets, stopping by the local shop for essentials, and indulging in a classic pub lunch at the inviting local inn.

The idyllic Yorkshire countryside beckons, with ample opportunities for walking, cycling, and wildlife spotting right on your doorstep.

Further afield, the vibrant market towns of Pickering and Malton offer a variety of quaint shops, delicious eateries, and historic attractions.

Back at your home away from home, relax and unwind as you plan your next day's adventure, with the welcoming charm of Glenrae awaiting your return.
