Perfectly positioned for touring both the Moors and the Coast, the picturesque village of Rosedale Abbey is situated in the heart of the North York Moors National Park. Located in Rosedale, a beautiful valley of sweeping hillsides and breathtaking views, this lovely little settlement is surrounded by wonderful moorland countryside and offers walks in every direction. The village is home to the remains of a 12th Century Cistercian Priory - a stone pillar, staircase and sundial are all that remain, which gave the town its unusual name. The village is now largely made up of stone-built cottages clustered around the village green. Packed with local amenities such as shops, tearooms, an art gallery, a glass studio and three old country pubs, there is plenty to do without venturing to nearby Hutton-le-Hole, Ryedale and Kirkbymoorside.
Reviews
"Quirky and cosy, well equipped property on four levels. Two good sized fridges in the kitchen, good size freezer and washer/dryer in the boot room. Everon stove (Aga style) was a bit of a challenge but we managed ok. Good size bedrooms with comfy beds (bed linen could do with being upgraded), lovely big kitchen with large farmhouse kitchen table. Beautiful lounge with an open coal fire which was perfect for our Christmas stay? The Christmas decorations and Christmas tree were perfect, even down to putting chocolates on the tree for our small grandchildren. A welcome pack of Champagne and biscuits was much appreciated and we all enjoyed the 'treasure hunt', especially when there was treasure (sweets) at the end of it. The location is stunning and we all had our own version of which window had the best view. The window shapes in the cottage are varied with some being arch, round, stained etc. Our grandchildren loved each morning looking out to see the sheep and horses in the field next to the cottage. We cannot comment on the village facilities as being Christmas most were closed over the time we were there. There is a good size bathroom with a toilet, bath and an electric shower on the 2nd floor, a shower and toilet on the ground floor off the boot room. Attention to detail in regards to cleaning could be improved - big cobwebs, dead flies on window sills. Outside space a little grubby - big cobwebs, dead spiders and flies need sweeping off of the inside of the canopy outside the front door. There are two allocated parking bays outside the cottage. We had a fabulous family Christmas (4 adults, 2 small children) and all loved the quirky style of the cottage, we have some lovely memories which we will treasure forever, in fact our two little grandchildren didn't want to leave. We are listing a few little niggles which could be improved upon but by no means did they impact on our stay: Bedroom on the top floor has a curtain across the door opening (no closing door) Poor water flow re shower on 2nd floor. Boot room shower could do with some heat in it, heated towel rail not working, bit of an upgrade would improve this area as it could be a bit smarter and cleaner. Front door curtain needs replacing, existing one very shabby."
"What a beautiful characterful accommodation,everything we needed and more for 6 females on a hen weekend.so warm and cosy with the cooker always on and the storage heaters.we couldn't resist having a real log fire the first night but we were so lucky with the weather that we didn't light it again.lovely comfy beds,spotlessly clean,welcome pack and treasure hunt a nice touch.food in graze on the green so good and our meal in the coach inn,highly recommended.Sunday late afternoon we drove to the lion inn at blakey ridge and that was also brilliant.did some great walks from cottage.great weekend had by all!"
"We stayed here for one week from 25th August 2017 with our three boys and their partners. The Chaple has everything you need and is situated just inside the beautiful village of Rosedale Abbey. It is clean and decorated in a traditional country style to a very high standard. There is a satalite tv, dvds to watch maps and information on local beautiful walks, along with a real log fire. All rooms have great views over the surrounding area. Although the hotel in the village has closed there are two local pubs that serve fantastic food to takeaway or eat in at realistic prices. This holiday let is a credit to its owners."
"Cozy, clean and comfortable do not do this property justice. We had a family holiday with bits of the family coming and going over the week. Plenty of room for up to eight people. Everything and I mean everything you require is in the property. It is set in a splendid situation in a splendid village, everyone was so friendly. This property is well nigh perfect for a family holiday"
"Stayed for 5 days in this beautiful chapel. Plenty of space for 4 generations plus a day visit from the in-laws. Beautiful scenery through every window and walks straight out of the front door. Good food in local pubs and only a 40 minute drive to Whitby for fish and chips! The welcome pack was a lovely surprise and my children especially enjoyed the treasure hunt - especially when we found there was REAL treasure. The owner was most helpful and gave loads of information about both the house and surrounding area. I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone and will stay again"
"Service excellent.very comfortable very clean.everything you could want in the Chapel.location quite excellent centre for walking and sightseeing. Enjoyed our stay .only things to say had real problems with cooker even though there was instructions I found the stairs steep.i would visit again."
"We stayed there in august 2012 as a family, six of us, plus a family friend. At the outset, if no one reads any more, not for anyone who is not fully mobile (lots of steps) (or young children, windows open at floor level) and anyone who is not used to reading lots of signs everywhere in the house. We were met with a welcome pack, a bottle of champagne,and a pack of biscuits (elsewhere with Sykes Cottages we have been met with eggs/bread/milk/tea bags etc.,)., and with wood, coal and fire lighters for the open fire. The cooker is nearly an aga, and electric, which needs to be on 24/7 to be of any use it really does take some getting used to (it does warm the place) although we managed a full Sunday roast meal (meat was brought to the place frozen) and meals most days on a wing and a prayer, once something is boiling on top it is rather hard to simmer it (takes ages to heat up or cool down). The owner is very friendly and chatty when ringing about the key, and to be honest, does try to explain the cooker's good and bad points. The property has been furbished to quite high standards with off peak radiators around the place (and a little worrying torches everywhere for power cuts) and is ideally situated for a never ending number of walks commencing in and around the village of Rosedale abbey (and not that far from Whitby). The village is a good place to stay and we, as a family, were united in our praise of the village and would return to the place again. The local abbey Stores (2/3 mins walk) is stocked with everyday essentials but not for foodstocks for a full cooked meal. It was a shame that this modern converted property did not have all its lights working (not the bulbs, clearly a fuse or wiring problem) and that the cooker hood had no fan control (switch long since departed), for the price paid one expects all to be fully functional. On the whole enjoyed our break and laughs about how long the cooked breakfast was taking (or how quick it was). Lots of videos there ... and before I forget, no mobile signal but 'free' wifi'."

"We had a lovely break at the Old Methodist Chapel. It's been recently refurbished to a very high standard so was a real pleasure to stay in. We visited in November, but the range cooker in the kitchen and the open fire in the large living room ensurered a cosy stay. Comfort and cleanliness really are top notch, although it would get a little crowded if you had someone sleeping in every bed! The property is very well managed, with everything you need there for you on arrival - just make sure you bring plenty of food - it's a long way to the nearest supermarket! Only downside for summer stays is the lack of garden, but Rosedale abbey is so quiet and beautiful it doesn't really matter. Highly recommended."
