The beaches of Bridlington, Scarborough and Filey are easily accessible, and Hornsea with its ‘Freeport Shopping Centre’ is also well worth a visit.

The perfect cottage, we'll be booking again for next year. Has everything you can possibly need and it was so warm, clean and comfortable. We loved our family weekend at The Granary and can't wait to go back 😊

We have never seen such a well stocked rental for equipment. Everything you need. We took our grandkids here three years ago and have returned with them again and it didn’t disappoint. Kids just loved the animals and the massive playroom.

I rarely leave reviews and have never awarded five stars but this place really does warrant it. Its posible to arrive, park and enjoy the place and its environment without having to actually leave (although take transport if you are planning on using it for a base to explore this part of the country). The purpose of our trip was to chill out and we certainly did. I have never stayed anywhere so well and thoughtfully equipped, my 2 year old granddaughter had the time of her life with the animals, play equipment and space - lots of space! We stayed 4 nights in The Granary, which was spacious and luxurious. We absolutely did not want to leave and definitely will return.
