Graham, Anne, William and Thomas would like to welcome you to our holiday cottage.
This former workman’s cottage, located on our working arable farm has been extensively renovated and is now available for let. The cottage can comfortably sleep 6 people with the option of a sofa bed located in the dining room allowing accommodation for an additional 2 people if required.
The country cottage overlooks pasture to the front and woodland to the rear that offers a home to a variety of wildlife including owls, pheasants, partridge and the occasional deer. In addition hens roam the farmyard and you are bound to meet our friendly dog Oscar. We grow a variety of crops from barley to Birds Eye peas.

The area offers many opportunities for cycling and walking holidays being close to the famous Wolds Way and many other quiet roads and pathways.

Outside
The setting and the roses around the door give a relaxing and rural feeling. A patio area with garden furniture leads to a large lawned area suitable for ball games or just relaxing with a book. The garden is surrounded by woods where, if you are quiet, you can observe the wildlife. There is parking for 3 cars to the side of the cottage. A large shed offers storage for bikes, walking boots and other equipment. The shed also houses the washing machine.
We welcome two well behaved dogs by arrangement at an additional cost. They must be kept on leads outside the garden due to the local wildlife, our chickens and sheep. Whilst we are happy for them to go inside the cottage we expect them not to go upstairs or onto any of the furniture.
Ground Floor
The back door opens into the kitchen. The fully equipped kitchen boasts an electric fan oven with ceramic hob, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, fridge and freezer. Although the local pub and award winning restaurant is only 2 miles away and there are a variety of takeaway outlets in the local area the cottage has a wide variety of crockery and kitchen equipment is available for your use making self catering as easy as possible. An extendable table in the dining room allows you all to sit comfortably together at mealtimes.
Accessed from the kitchen are the dining room and sitting room. For cosy evenings the sitting room has an open fire – 1st basket of logs is free, further supplies available at cost, access to coal by arrangement.
