“Uggleby House is a delightful home in a small cul-de-sac in the delightful village of Sleights. It looks deceptively compact from outside, but is surprisingly spacious, with parking for three cars. We stayed for a family gathering with our children, their partners and our grandson, and it worked extremely well. The ground floor is open plan, with a large lounge, kitchen and dining area, plus a utility room and downstairs toilet. There is a small but perfectly adequate garden. The four bedrooms and three bathrooms provide plenty of space. Our grandson loved his room because he could hear the steam trains on the nearby North Yorkshire Moors Railway each morning! The house is well equipped and ideally placed for exploring. Whitby is about ten minutes away, Grosmont and Goathland around fifteen minutes, and Pickering about half an hour. Perry's Plants, close by, does wonderful breakfasts overlooking the River Esk. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend Uggleby House.”
