Thoroughly enjoyed our week in this lovely cottage, perfect location to explore Pickering and the beautiful surrounding areas. Clean well equipped and homely, loved the attention to detail, with a few welcome treats included. Secure back yard and parking space also. Two minutes walk to an array of individual shops including butchers, bakers and plenty of cafes.Took our 2 dogs on the steam train to Whitby so that they could enjoy the beach and fish and chips for us. Would definitely recommend!
