The area

Great Habton is a quiet countryside village just 6 miles from the bustling market town of Malton. Perfect for walks and cycling, you’ll have access to beautiful North Yorkshire countryside and great links to neighbouring areas. There is a local pub just a two minute walk from the cottage where you can enjoy meals and drinks during your stay.

Families will love the popular tourist spots nearby such as Flamingo Land theme park which is a short 5 minute drive away and the North York Moors Steam Railway which can be reached in 15 minutes by car. If you’re looking for an adventure, Dalby Forest is 35 minutes away where you can experience adventure trails and the Go Ape course.

We’d recommend visiting the pretty market town of Malton, located on the north of the River Derwent. With an exceptional foodie community, an abundance of shops, restaurants and cafes, stunning countryside surrounding the area, Malton is ideal for days out.

Great Habton has bus links to surrounding areas such as Malton, Hutton-le-Hole and Kirkbymoorside. Hop on the 175 route which travels between Malton and Pickering with stops in Amotherby and Swinton amongst others. The 176 route has drop offs in Marton and Hutton-le-Hole before finishing in Kirkbymoorside.

The closest train station is a 15-minute drive from the cottage in Malton. There's a direct train service to Malton on the Scarborough – York – Leeds – Manchester line. For travellers from further afield, the best connections are made via York. There are bus services to Malton from York, Scarborough, Leeds, Pickering and Helmsley.

The Yorkshire Coastliner is the perfect way to explore the whole area. This long-distance service links the cities of Leeds and York with the towns and villages of Malton, Pickering and Thornton-le-Dale, as well as the coastal resorts of Scarborough and Whitby.

“We had a wondereful stay in Great Habton, the cottage was cosy and warm. Perfect for the 3 adults and child we had as a group. We used the accomodation for a trip to Flamingo Land and the cottage was less than a 10 minute drive from the park. It was well located for our needs.”
