Overview

Largest of the Thirley Cotes Farm cottages; Sycamore sleeps 10 guests across 5 bedrooms and is just a short drive from the seaside towns and villages of Scarborough, Whitby and Robin Hood’s Bay.

Formerly a thrashing barn and grain store, this traditionally restored self-catering retreat has definitely shrugged off that mantle and provides a truly home-from-home experience, complete with 21 acres of surrounding grounds and woodland and resident wildlife in abundance.

This upside-down property (bedrooms downstairs, living space above) features an enclosed front-facing terrace garden and private hot tub, perfect for large families and groups of friends.

Sycamore is part of our pet-friendly collection and we can accommodate 2 well-behaved dogs of any size. We also offer a complimentary welcome pack of milk, bread, biscuits, jam and wine.

Our office is based on-site, so staff are available to greet you and provide guidance during your stay. Guests can also enjoy a selection of shared facilities, including an outdoor children’s playground, picnic space and small games room with pool table and family entertainment.

We all had a really nice time for my Grandad’s 60th birthday! Enjoyed the hot tub and playing in the park. The cottage is nice and big and close to the seaside. Our dogs Toffee and Bramble had loads of fun too. Thank you!

Everything was perfect in Sycamore Cottage which made for a truly memorable stay. So this is a big “Thank You” for all the hard work you have put in to making Thirley Cotes Farm such a wonderful holiday destination. The long wait to be there was worth it.

What a wonderful retreat! Very relaxing and beautiful surroundings. Thanks for the welcome pack. There is a nice mile walk from the church about 8 miles (a bit wet so go wrapped up).

CHRIS & SALLY

Good holiday in a comfortable cottage. Visited Whitby, Scarborough and Hartlepool – all free parking. Trenchers in Whitby highly recommended for seafood.

JUNE & GRAHAM

Perfect stay for Jim’s 50th. Absolutely loved it. Cottage wonderful, clean and everything to hand with the added bonus of a hot tub. So impressed with the whole Thirley Cotes Farm experience that we have already booked to bring all the family next year. Thank you so much for an amazing holiday. Highly recommended!
