Upstairs, two double bedrooms, accessed via a steep, traditional cottage staircase, are adorned with sumptuous soft furnishings, creating a luxurious retreat. Outside, the magic continues with a pretty rear garden featuring fruit trees, a covered porch, and a wood-fired hot tub for starlit evenings. Views over open countryside with sheep grazing in nearby fields add to the tranquil charm. A public footpath meanders past the cottage, leading through the neighbouring farm and into the open countryside, perfect for exploring on foot or bike. The external boot room provides additional storage, and there’s a safe space for bikes too. The nearby local pub serves up real ales and hearty home-cooked meals, just a short drive away. Located just five miles away, Withernsea is a traditional seaside town offering a delightful mix of attractions. Stroll along its golden sands or enjoy the long promenade, complete with amusement arcades, fish and chip shops, and charming tea rooms.

The most special cottage beautifully decorated for Christmas in a lovely setting.Helen and Phil went above and beyond for our New Year’s holiday.Seasonal goodies for both us and our Doggy. We really enjoyed exploring especially Spurn Point with its scenery, walks and the very friendly cafe. Burton Constable Hall also deserves a mention.The cottage itself is in a quiet rural and peaceful location and a highlight was star 🌟 gazing in the hot tub.Highly recommended - Many thanks
