Station View in Pickering is a beautifully decorated and well-equipped cottage, highly praised for its stunning views of the steam railway, central location, and private rooftop hot tub. Guests consistently highlight the helpfulness and responsiveness of the host, Tom, and the property’s suitability for families, friends, and couples alike. While the vast majority of reviews are extremely positive, a small number mention minor cleanliness and maintenance issues. Overall, guests found the property comfortable, thoughtfully appointed, and an excellent base for exploring the area.
Most guests found the property spotless and well maintained, with several reviews specifically praising the high standard of cleanliness. However, a small number of guests reported issues such as crumbs, cobwebs, and leftover food in the kitchen, which slightly lowers the score.
The location is universally praised, with guests loving its proximity to Pickering’s attractions, shops, restaurants, and especially the steam railway. The central setting and ease of access to local transport are frequently highlighted as major positives.
Guests describe the cottage as cosy, comfortable, and spacious, with high-quality beds and a homely feel. A minority mentioned issues with heating and sofa comfort, but these were exceptions among overwhelmingly positive feedback.
The property is lauded for its excellent facilities, including a well-equipped kitchen, private hot tub, rooftop terrace, and parking arrangements. Most guests found everything they needed, though a few noted minor maintenance issues such as a non-working electric fire and occasional shortages of towels or teaspoons.
The host is frequently commended for being attentive, responsive, and going the extra mile, such as providing clear instructions and, in some cases, special touches like birthday decorations. While some guests mention thoughtful gestures, these are not guaranteed for every stay.

Simply fantastic. The apartment is luxurious and spotlessly clean we wanted for nothing. Tom the host is very friendly and gives really helpful information before your arrival.The rooftop terrace and hot tub are wonderful. The bedrooms are huge and very well appointed with very comfortable beds. Great lounge and dining area with big smart tv.As the name suggests great view of the steam railway.We will definitely return in the future.

Lovely cottage, ideal location, I didn’t want to use my car when we got there but bus a few mins away and train over the road so perfect, could benefit from a bit of shade on the terrace as it was too hot to sit on the lovely seating a couple of days but otherwise we loved it 😊
