Remove from shortlist ShareDescription
Off the beaten track, from the lane with the humpback bridge, Blackbird cottage could have been plucked straight from a Blyton bedtime story. It’s an 18th Century, two-bedroom cottage with lashings of character in the hamlet of Iburndale near Sleights. Surrounded by countryside, it has delightful, private gardens where birdsong is probably the most chatter you’ll hear during your stay.
But don’t let the backwater setting fool you, Blackbird Cottage has every mod con. Plug in an electric car overnight, flick on the inglenook stove or smart TV, climb into the bubbling hot tub for instant contentment – this beautifully styled cottage is enchanting for couples or small families.
The ground-floor lounge, kitchen and bathroom (with a shower bath) lead to a garden room, which overlooks the cottage garden and its cute bothy for barbecuing or drinks; it’s secure here so dogs will be happy pottering.
On the first floor is the serene double room with feature sliding doors. Climb the very steep steps to the cosy attic twin for skylight views of Little Beck. The steps won’t suit everyone, but this is a fabulous find for those wanting adventure.

The Local Area
An ideal location for walking and cycling. The nearest pub, The Salmon Leap in Sleights, is a 7-minute cycle. From here watch the summer steam trains heading to Whitby or drive 10 minutes to Grosmont or Goathland (film location for Harry Potter) to hop aboard; there’s a pleasant ‘rail trail’ walk between the two stations. Iburndale is four miles from Whitby and equidistant to Saltwick Bay and Robin Hood’s Bay – all worth a visit.

We had a wonderful stay. Great location for popping out to different places. Great fun in the hot tub with the children, and everything we needed for a good balance of fun, relaxation and adventure!
We had such a lovely stay at Blackbird Cottage. The hot tub was perfect, so relaxing and we really enjoyed the beautiful quiet walks nearby. Everything was clean and comfortable. The prefect getaway. Can't wait to return!
What an amazing find for our last minute short break! Wonderful cottage, garden and of course hot tub. Great location and still plenty for us to see and do - so hope to be back soon.
