Looking for the best of coast and countryside? Take a look at our Ruswarp holiday cottages, sandwiched between a National Park and a Heritage Coast on the beautiful River Esk, just a little over a mile from Whitby.
Ruswarp is the perfect place for a relaxing holiday and the village has ample amenities, including a pub, selection of shops and Post Office. Look out for the iron bridge, old mill, village church and lofty brick viaduct.
Spend lazy days down on the river fishing, rowing and canoeing; or head to the fairways of the 9-hole golf course. There's also a delightful miniature steam railway.
Enjoy walking? Our Ruswarp cottages make a fantastic base for a walking holiday, from the leisurely mile-and-a-half walk into Whitby known as 'The Monk's Trod', to the 35-mile Esk Valley Walk, a moorland to coast trail following the River Esk.
Ruswarp also lies on the border of the North York Moors National Park, a paradise for the outdoors' enthusiast with endless opportunities for walking, cycling, horse riding and wildlife spotting. Or sit back and gently chug through the splendid countryside aboard the North Yorkshire Moors Steam Railway.
Travelling with the family? Toddlers will have hours of fun at Mini Monsterz within the Esk Leisure complex, while the charming coastal resort of Whitby is just a stone's throw away, offering lots to see and do like fascinating museums and wonderful places to eat and shop, not to mention an award-winning beach.
