Further details
Our childrens policy:
We market ourselves as a 'quiet, peaceful retreat' and know it is not always easy for the kids (or on the parents!) to keep the peace, especially when we have a large garden ideal for football etc-
Our guests here are mainly adults who want to enjoy the quiet surroundings. This is why we set our minimum age at 8 yrs and ask that children are accompanied at all times whilst on the property.
We let all parents of young children know what we are about and if they are happy that our accommodation is suitable for them as a family, they are very welcome!
I hope that this explains our policy, it guarantees our guests who return time after time the 'chill out' they come here for..

The North York Moors National Park really is a very special place. The great variety of landscapes is what truly makes it unique and gives it a character which so many people can enjoy.
Whether it's moorland, forests, pretty towns and villages or stunning coastline that appeals, there is something for everyone. There are castles, abbeys and churchs for the historians, abundant wildlife for the naturalists, footpaths galore for the walkers and world class facilities for the cyclists at Dalby Forest.
And after a busy day exploring, we have a great choice of wonderful country inns, pubs and restaurants serving excellent food and wines... once experienced, you will definitely want to come back!
The Pickering / Stape area
We are a perfect base for those who want to explore the dramatic landscapes and picture postcard village of the North York Moors.
A 45 minute scenic drive will take you over the heather laden moors to the traditional fishing town of Whitby, into the historic City of York, or to the Baroque masterpiece, Castle Howard.
The North York Moors Steam Railway stops at Levisham station, a short walk or drive through the forest, and just one stop away is Goathland, probably better known as the Heartbeat TV series village of Aidensfield.
We provide our guests with a list of eating places, local information and things to do, please enquire if you would like us to send you this information.

Reviews

This was our third visit in 15 months! The accommodation is warm and cosy, and spotlessly clean. The furnishings are most attractive, comfortable and carefully thought out, providing you with just what you need without you even realising you need it! We love the log burning stove, which is made so easy to use because all the logs and 'makings' are literally on your door step. Lovely to return to after a day out on the moors or by the sea. We love the fact that it is so peaceful, and you really do get away from it all. There is no mobile signal - another attraction for us. The Payphone means you can keep in touch should it be necessary. Incredibly helpful owners too. |

The quality of the accommodation is unsurpassed, and the standard of finish around the property and in each of the cottages is a credit to both Ben and Sue. We came for a weekend in and around Dalby Forest and were greeted with a glowing fire and homemade cakes.Everything about our cottage was immaculately presented and yet still homely. I will certainly be going back and would happily recommend this location to anyone who enjoys the countryside and quality accommodation. |

This really is a hidden gem, the accommodation is exquisite and a credit to Sue and Ben who were delightful hosts. The cottage was eveything we could have hoped for and more, the attention to detail was fantastic and nothing had been overlooked. The peaceful location was perfect, right next to the forest and with deer visiting right outside the window. Willows End really played its part in making our Christmas so very special to us all and we very much look forward to returning in the future. |
