  • Charming, cosy Victorian cottage with period features and furnishings
  • Super location right in the heart of historic Pickering
  • The property has its own games room for fun family nights in

Property code: OC-Y110

Just 2 miles from the edge of the North York Moors, this deceptively spacious two-storey cottage comes with its own games room and an inviting courtyard garden. It offers a group of four people with two hounds a convenient base to explore an outstanding natural landscape, before returning to a comfortable environment bursting with homely Victorian design touches. With natural attractions and several market towns within easy reach, it’s a haven for anyone who loves exploring glorious countryside and moorland on foot, two wheels and even by steam train.

The lounge’s plump sofas are just the place to sink into after a long day out, with a wood burner on hand during colder evenings. The bright and airy kitchen/diner overlooks a courtyard garden and will be a popular gathering spot, with the tempting aromas from the Aga sure to attract those with four paws. Things are sure to get competitive around the pool table in the games room, a useful option for restless youngsters on rainy days. A steep staircase with a dog leg landing leads to the first floor, comprising a shower room and two bedrooms: a double bedroom and a twin bedroom, both featuring iron bed frames and thermal, blackout curtains. The quaint courtyard to the rear is an ideal space for al fresco dining.

The centre of Pickering (within 100 metres) offers plenty of dog-friendly attractions, including the castle, along with eateries and pubs that welcome canine customers. Dogs go free on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, which starts off at Pickering Station (0.5 miles) and navigates through outstanding moorland scenery and wooded countryside before terminating at Whitby (23 miles), home to iconic abbey ruins, piers and a host of dog-friendly amenities. The journey there alone will give walkers and cyclists a tonne of inspiration.

The cottage is beautiful to look around with every amenity you could need. Plenty of space for 4 people staying. The beds comfortable, the shower worked perfectly, all the equipment worked properly. The Smart TV was a bonus as was able to pick up and stream. Wi-Fi reliable. Parking at the back was great. Plenty of space, not having to worry aRead morebout getting a space and felt really secure. I had my gate helper with me, so easy to get in and out. The location is brilliant as it sits on the crossroads of the two main roads in this part of the world, so you were straight out on your journeys. Plenty to do in Pickering -the castle, the railway and the best find, the church on the hill. I would strongly recommend a visit here. Plenty of places to get food in the town - restaurants, cafes, takeaways - Cappelman's Fish and Chip restaurant was great. They now have a Lidl which meant getting food for the house was easy. Overall I fell in love with the property and Pickering and really want to come back with other family members Hide

A beautiful cottage in a great location, with lots of homely touches. Good tips about where to eat, and within easy reach of many attractions. We would certainly stay there again if holidaying in that part of England

This is a comfortable cottage, ideally located for the centre of Pickering and as a base for exploring the area. It might not be suitable for less mobile persons, as there are steep and narrow steps up to the main bedroom. Otherwise, it can't be faulted in terms of the facilities provided, including the safe off-road parking for up to 3 cars.

Lovely cottage in a great location - very quiet but right in the centre of Pickering. Instructions to find the cottage were very clear and the cottage was as expected from the website (in fact a little more spacious than expected). We had a lot of fun using the pool table too. Only suggestions for improvement would be providing larger bath towels aRead morend having some facility for glass recycling (appreciate that the recycling issue may be outside the owners' control). We had a fantastic holiday and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Pantiles Cottage to friends. Hide

The cottage was very comfortable and in great location, the off street parking was very welcome. The cottage does not have a washing machine and could possibly have benefitted from a few more cleaning products (washing up brush etc)/spare bin liners but we had a wonderful stay

Front door lock still not turning without a lot of fiddling and pushing. The same as when we stayed a year ago and left a note pointing this out. Having to use the rear door all the time was a bit of a pain !

The aga in a heatwave was really uncomfortable. The cottage could have been a cool refuge but we was too hot especially at night. The towel rail is on super hot all the time and makes it unbearable. Everything else was lovely but I'd only recommend it as a winter break cottage.

Well appointed and larger than expected. Aga in a heatwave was challenging ?? Only missing some bits and pieces to allow a clean /mop midweek would have been useful with dog. No mop and had to dismantle and clean hoover and filters before it would pick up anything! Minor point though and enjoyed our break!

The equipment in kitchen was a bit sparse, eg no scissors, no containers for cooking/heating in microwave. As we eat out mainly, the aga was a bit like "does a fish need a bicycle" and the unnecessary heat it belted out during the warm spell we had made the house uncomfortable.
