Location

 

Avoncroft Cottage is located in the small village of High Hawsker, situated just off the main A171 Whitby to Scarborough road. Close enough to Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay so that you can easily pop in to visit the attractions and restaurants, but far enough away so you can retreat to the peace and tranquility of the country.

Avoncroft Cottage makes an excellent base to explore the Yorkshire Coast and the North Yorkshire Moors. The North sea coast is just 15 minutes walk away whilst the friendly "Hare and Hounds" pub, with a large selection of lunchtime and evening meals, is just a short stroll down the road!

For Walkers, Avoncroft Cottage is slap-bang in the middle of the North York Moors National Park. Please see our "Walks" page for some easy circular walks which start and end at the cottage, both coastal and inland. 

For Cyclists, Avoncroft Cottage couldn't be better situated: the Moor-to-Sea cycle way runs just behind the cottage and bike hire is available down the road at Trailways Cycle Hire. Avoncroft has a large, secure garage so you can safely store your own bicycles overnight, and there is an outside tap to wash them down when muddy. Please see our "Bike Rides" Page for some route ideas.
