The Property: About The Ticket Office

Victorian Grade II Listed Ticket Office Conversion

This Victorian, Grade II listed ticket office has been imaginatively converted, preserving many of its original features. The open-plan sitting, kitchen, and dining area offers a compact, well-equipped kitchen and a farmhouse-style dining area, artfully screened by a spiral staircase. The sitting room, warm and inviting, showcases the original ticket office's cast iron fireplace and tiles, creating a unique atmosphere.

Quirky Ruswarp Cottage Accommodation

Set in the centre of Ruswarp village, 1.5 miles from Whitby, this stone-built Victorian Grade II listed former ticket office provides a quirky accommodation option. Ideal for couples seeking a unique getaway, the cottage retains its decorative cast iron fireplace, mullion windows, and tongue and groove panelled walls. The sympathetically restored open-plan living space features slate floors, a cosy living flame gas fire, and a small dining area overlooking the station platform.

Charming Bedroom and Village Amenities

Ascending the spiral staircase leads to a cabin-style bedroom and shower room tucked into the eaves, offering a snug retreat. Decorated to a high standard, this Ruswarp cottage is a comfortable holiday home with steam trains passing by. The village boasts excellent amenities, including a butcher's shop, a local store, and a pub serving real ale and fine food, alongside boating on the River Esk and a delightful waterside tea room.

Exploring the Ruswarp and Whitby Area

Ruswarp, just two miles inland from Whitby and on the edge of the North York Moors National Park, is a perfect holiday location. The village features a general store, a public house, and a tearoom. The impressive viaduct over the River Esk, constructed with over five million bricks, is now a walking and cycling trail. Visitors can enjoy river and sea fishing, boating, and the miniature steam railway, making this a superb location for a memorable holiday.

Cabin-style double bedroom set in the eaves (restricted access and headroom). Bathroom in eaves with shower (on landing area) basin & WC (in separate room). Attractive open plan living area with compact kitchen, dining area & sitting area with living flame gas fire.
