Our first visit and Pickering proved to be a delightful small town offering a variety of things to do - a small Monday market, a museum, plenty of choice to eat out , the North Moors Railway and, especially the church with its rare Medieval wall paintings. Also a very convenient base for exploring other parts of N Yorkshire.

The Yorkshire Auction House with Angus Ashworth.

The Yorkshire Auction House with Angus Ashworth. The N.Y.M.R. to Whitby. A day out to Flamborough Head,Filey or Bridlington. Also a day out to Castle Howard. You can also go to the Rydale Show in May at Duncombe Park and the Steam Gala in July in Helmsley. There is plenty to do staying here.Plenty of pubs serving food in Wrelton and Sinnington then you have Pickering and Kirbymoorside. A week in this area is not enough time to do and see everything.

The property was comfortable and historic with old beams and a wood burner. Treats were left for our dog with a nice personalised message which was thoughtful, along with a little welcome pack for us. The garden was fantastic with a nice covered decked area with seating and table, and fully enclosed (so our little dog was perfectly safe) - we enjoyed sitting out there in the sun. Beds were comfortable. The location of the cottage was great for walking into Pickering and the shops there.

The hotel is family run and everyone is friendly and the atmosphere is homely. Even the family dog and cats come to greet you. We would definitely return.
