A lovely cottage with attention to detail, located in a village close to Stamford Bridge. This charming property offers the perfect getaway with much to explore, from York to the North Yorkshire Moors.
Discover this home away from home at the foot of the Yorkshire Wolds, where you can holiday in style with your loved ones and dogs. Head out on pet-pleasing walks and explore ancient villages by day, followed by cosy evenings in with a bottle of wine (and perhaps a short bone-chewing session for four-legged guests). This cottage has room for up to four humans and two canine companions, so is great for a romantic getaway, a small family get-together or a trip among friends.
The house is decorated in a tasteful, thoughtful style, with quirky paintings, pretty tiles and upcycled furniture. In the cosy and spacious lounge, sink into the sofa and settle down to a film while the pets warm their fur by the wood burner. Prepare meals in the well-equipped kitchen, which leads onto a dining room that’s great for leisurely meals plus a conservatory overlooking the garden. There’s also a games room and an attic, so you’ll have plenty of space for spreading out. The enclosed garden, accessed through a shared driveway, is perfect for relaxing together in fine weather. Sizzle up a feast on the charcoal BBQ while your pets take forty winks on the lawn – or hound you for sausages.
Stamford Bridge (1.5 miles) has shops where you can pick up supplies, and Pocklington (8.5 miles) is an attractive market town with a 15th century church tower. For long walks through rolling countryside and scenic villages, take the dogs to the Howardian Hills (10 miles). Take a bus or drive into historical York (9 miles) if you feel like a day out in the city. When you’re done sniffing out the delightful narrow streets and quaint shops, go for a walk along the River Ouse before having a pint in a doggie-welcoming real-ale pub.
