Holiday Accommodation Rosedale Abbey

Rosedale Abbey holiday accommodation is located in one of the most spectacular rural settings in England. Here, on the North York Moors you’ll find a large expanse of heather moorland, with rolling hills, in an area that is almost completely free of human encroachment. The village around Rosedale Abbey cottages is a picturesque, classically English scene, with cottages, small church, a tearoom, village green and welcoming traditional pubs. A Rosedale Abbey holiday home would serve as the ideal base for a holiday exploring the national park, from its lowlands to its tall hills and impressive coastal scenery by the North Sea.

Besides enjoying the spectacular landscapes, there’s plenty to see and do not far from Rosedale Abbey holiday accommodation. First off, the moors are home to an impressive array of important historical sites, from ancient monuments to medieval abbeys and fortifications. One example is Helmsley Castle, a few miles from Rosedale Abbey holiday home apartments. This structure dates back to the 12th Century and saw some important action during the English Civil in the 17th Century when it was besieged by the Parliamentarian Sir Thomas Fairfax. If you make the journey across the North York Moors from your Rosedale Abbey self-catering cottage you’ll reach the town Whitby, with its impressive ruined Benedictine Abbey. The foundations of this building date back almost 1,400 years, and the structure itself has changed little since it was partially destroyed under the orders of Henry VIII.
