Welcome to this lovingly converted former barn, an inviting retreat that serves as the perfect base for two couples or a family to explore the picturesque Yorkshire countryside. Inside, warm your feet on the crackling wood burner in the light and airy open-plan living space, and outside, make the most of warm sunny days in the orchard or on the patio area.

Inside, the inviting lounge features two cosy sofas, a wood burner, a TV, and a DVD player, subtly separated by stylish room dividers from the chic kitchen/diner. With white units and solid wooden worktops, the kitchen is equipped with all the essentials for culinary creativity. There’s a separate utility area for larger white goods, which also provides storage space for coats and boots. The property's two bedrooms offer sumptuous super king-size beds and are finished in calming neutral decor with carefully selected antique-style furniture, both boasting en-suite facilities. Outside, a charming apple orchard awaits, complete with a spacious lawn, swing, and seesaw for the little ones to enjoy. A paved area nestled among the trees offers the perfect setting for al fresco dining.

Located in a serene rural setting beside the River Ouse, the property offers easy access to approximately 100 acres of park and farmland, ideal for leisurely strolls amidst nature's beauty. After a rejuvenating walk, indulge in hearty lunches crafted from the finest Yorkshire produce at one of the many local pubs nearby. Beyond the rolling fields, discover the quaint market town of Howden, 4.5 miles away, where ancient streets, charming independent shops, and tempting cafes await. For a taste of history and culture, venture to the market town of Beverley, situated 22 miles away, with its cobblestone squares and excellent shopping opportunities.

Lovely remote cottage on private farmland. Owner is nearby if needed. Very clean and comfortable. All amenities provided and working. We used the cottage as our base to visit Hull, the North Yorkshire Moors, and was mainly chosen for ease of access for our planned trip on the Statesman Pullman from Selby Station. Would recommend.

An average cottage in a quiet location. Did the job for a few nights away. The cottage is quite basic and could probably do with sprucing up a little. More like a 3-4 star rather than a 5­

Wonderfully relaxing holiday! A mix up over beds was sorted very promptly by the owner. There was even the offer of electric fans as it was unusually hot weather, but the cottage stayed surprisingly cool (even with the garden in full sun) & no fans were needed. The location is stunning for local walks, & York, Bridlington & Beverley are relatively Read more'local'. The cottage is luxuriously comfortable. Only concern was seeing wasps around fallen apples near the door - but even they didn't bother us! Hide
