Boasting bags of original charm and a traditional style, this Georgian cottage is the perfect place to bring family or a group of friends all year round. Dating back to 1750, you don't have to venture very far to discover some of Pickering's local history, or experience some beautiful architecture. Begin your days with breakfast and a cup of coffee on the patio, which forms part of a walled garden full of pretty wildflowers and greenery. If you're keen to explore beyond the walls, you've got 8,000 acres of forest and two Blue Flag beaches within an easy distance. Natural beauty spots are abundant here, meaning magnificent outdoor adventures await at every turn. We highly recommend embarking on one of Dalby Forest's beautiful walking trails on a clear night to see if you can spot the milky way. When you return, there's nothing like a home-cooked meal after a busy day, especially on a chilly night. Gather the family around the dining table and throw some logs on the wood-burning stove to create a cosy atmosphere while you tuck in. Post-dinner, retire to the living room to share a bottle of wine or relax with a long soak in the... bath.
