About this property

Stone-built Cottage In A Tranquil Setting With Views Over Rosedale

The Mushroom House is a stone-built cottage in a small row nestling on the eastern side of Rosedale about 1.5 miles outside Rosedale Abbey village. It is in a tranquil setting on a road which ends further up the dale and so has little traffic. The view from the front of the house looks out right across the valley of Rosedale with its farmhouses and extensive fields.
The row of old iron-miners' cottages is made up of a mixture of permanent residences and second homes and so the area is consequently very quiet and peaceful. You can step outside the door, pull on your walking boots or get on your bike, and set straight off into Rosedale and the surrounding moors and dales for a gentle stroll or a serious jaunt – whatever suits you – there are no pressures out here away from it all.
If you want to explore a little further then in a one-hour radius you have everything from the wonderful seaside town of Whitby, the quaint Runswick Bay, the magnificent Castle Howard, ancient York, pretty Helmsley and even a theme park at Flamingoland not to mention Scampston Gardens and Dalby Forest. This is just a small selection and there’s more information in the Location section of this site and in the box full of leaflets and guides in the cottage itself.
Rosedale Abbey village has two tea-shops and three hostelries (all serving food) and there are other excellent places a few miles further away such as the New Inn at Cropton (with its own brewery) and the Blacksmiths at Lastingham. Then of course there’s always Whitby fish and chips!
The house itself has 3 bedrooms upstairs (1 with super-king-sized bed, 1 with double bed and 1 with single top bunk and a child's pull-out bed) and a lounge, kitchen and bathroom downstairs. We have decorated and furnished the house to a high standard so that our guests will feel well looked-after, relaxed and at home. The comfortable lounge has two sofas and an open fire. All three bedrooms are decorated in individual styles with lovely views from all windows. There’s a garden to play in at the front and a secluded lawn at the back ideal for barbeques on the fire pit.
The house has a modern and well-equipped kitchen as well as a modern bathroom with bath, shower, basin & WC (towels not provided). At the front of the house is a stone patio which looks out over beautiful Rosedale. At the rear is a secluded lawn backing onto the fields and ideal for sitting quietly or barbecuing.
If you want a real idea of the place then read the reviews our past guests have kindly written. We couldn’t have put it better ourselves.

Rural Idyll
Clean and loved the coal fire. Very difficult to find in the dark. Perhaps a map could be provided and the locals didn't know where it was either!

Great Property in an outstanding location
The cottage is in a great location, just over a mile from the village of Rosedale Abbey. The views from the cottage are outstanding! Everything was provided for an enjoyable stay. A slight problem regarding bedding was quickly resolved, so this is not a complaint, it's a positive! Would definitely consider a return visit.

Heerlijk verblijf midden op de Moord
Een mooi, volledig ingericht vakantie huis. Van alle gemakken voorzien en perfect voor self catering max 2 personen. Bij meer personen, waar wel slaap plaatsen voor zijn, wordt het wat krap. Ligging uitstekend! Goed uitgangspunt voor mooie wandelingen direct vanuit het huis of op enkele minuten rijden. Er is ghee openbaarvervoer (alleen op za-zo-ma 1x een bus).

About the host

Hosted by Jackie Reeder

Host profile image
We are Michael & Jackie Reeder (accountant & teacher respectively) and live in Sheffield. We have a 30-year old son (budding entrepreneur) and a 26-year old daughter (junior doctor). We both grew up in Stockport but have lived in Sheffield for over 30 years now. We bought the house in 2003 and for the 10 years up until 2013 we worked to bring the house up to its current standard whilst at the same time enjoying many happy times there and on the North Yorkshire coast with friends and family. The house is furnished and decorated as a second home for us and we hope it feels like home and not just somewhere to sleep whilst on holiday in North Yorkshire.

Why they chose this property

This house has been both our escape from our busy city lives and the base for some wonderful times with friends and family. Its location in the lovely surroundings of Rosedale with just a 20 minute walk down into Rosedale Abbey village was ideal and it felt far enough away from the rat race to relax the instant we got there.

What makes this property unique

The peace and quiet (you can truly often only hear a cockerel crowing or an owl hooting when you sit out on the front patio or in the back garden).
The view out across Rosedale is lovely at any time of year.
Rosedale Abbey village with its couple of small tea-shops and two nice drinking/eateries is just the right size with friendly local people but never too busy.
The village is in an ideal location for countryside pursuits, visits to the seaside and days out at the many attractions in the surrounding area.
