The Old Post Office within the quaint village of Ruswarp, is a beautifully unique holiday cottage providing a luxury and comfortable stay for any couple. The Old Post Office is all open plan, the ground floor provides a contemporary kitchen with all the mod cons and a breakfast bar seating area to enjoy your meals. This is open to the living space which offers, a window seat to watch the world go by along with a comfortable sofa to enjoy the large smart TV. Following the open staircase to the first floor, you will find a kingsize bed and a large built in wardrobe. The sleeping area is open to the bathroom area, which hosts a large freestanding bath, a walk in shower, his and hers basins and a toilet tucked around the corner.
For anyone who loves a breakfast that sets you up for the day, look no further than the butchers next door, they offer hot sandwiches at a very reasonable price. Ruswarp itself is only a 20 minute walk from Whitby town centre, along either the Esk Valley walk, or along side the River Esk, accessed next to the train line. Both routes offer lovely sceneries and can be completed in a circular walk. On street parking can be found on Ruswarp Bank 200m away.
