A beautifully designed two-bedroom property full of colour, charm and far-reaching countryside views, Catkin Cottage offers a stylish yet relaxed retreat at the heart of Birchwood Farm.
Set within the peaceful grounds of Birchwood Farm near Goathland, Catkin Cottage brings together the best of farmhouse living with a bold, design-led twist. There’s a sense of space and openness, with sweeping views stretching across the hills and down towards the lake.
Inside, the cottage feels warm, welcoming and full of personality. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living space is a real highlight – generous in size and beautifully styled, with a striking blue kitchen and bold red range cooker creating an eye-catching centrepiece. Exposed beams, original woodwork and colourful wallpaper add depth and interest, while the large dining table and relaxed seating area make it a space designed for slow, sociable living.
A separate lounge offers a more intimate place to retreat, with deeper tones, soft lighting and a log-burning stove creating a cosy, relaxed atmosphere. Large windows and doors open out onto the landscape beyond, drawing in natural light and keeping you connected to the countryside.
Upstairs, the bedrooms continue the same thoughtful approach to design. The master suite is calm and inviting, while the second bedroom offers a flexible and characterful space – ideal for couples, friends or families. Every detail feels considered, yet the overall feel remains easy, relaxed and stylish.
Outside, the cottage enjoys its own garden space, framed by stone walls and opens to uninterrupted countryside views. A simple bench offers the perfect spot to pause with a coffee or a glass of something chilled, soaking in the peace and stillness of the setting.
Guests at Catkin Cottage also have access to the wider Birchwood Farm grounds. A short walk brings you to the lake, where a rowing boat awaits for gentle afternoons on the water. There’s also a shared store with bikes, cricket bats, outdoor games and fishing equipment, along with a wood store near the parking area so you can help yourself to logs throughout your stay.
Catkin Cottage is a place that feels both uplifting and easy to settle into – a true countryside escape with personality.
Please note the fifth bed is a pullout trundle bed suitable for children.
