Overview
Property code: 85723

Enjoy the best of the Yorkshire coast and Wolds when you stay at this handsome stone barn, approximately 1 mile from Hornsea. Sleeping four guests, and welcoming one four-legged friend, the two-bedroom property, which enjoys its privacy, is one of two holiday homes on this working farm, where the owners also live. It could be perfect for a small family on a Yorkshire break or could suit two couples eager to escape together.

Head into Hornsea to browse a variety of small shops, bars and restaurants or enjoy a day at the beach. Visit Hornsea Mere, 2 miles, the largest freshwater lake in Yorkshire, offering sailing, fishing and boat trips. There are also other appealing coastal towns within easy reach, including Bridlington, 13 miles from the barn. Drive 16 miles to the city of Hull, with its celebrated aquarium, and plan days out to stately homes and gardens, including Burton Agnes, 12 miles away, and Sewerby Hall and Gardens, 16 miles from the barn.

Wander into your temporary, single-storey home and find yourselves in a bright and airy lounge/kitchen/diner, with a splash of cheerful colour here and there. Put the kettle on to make a cup of tea to enjoy with the Yorkshire parkin you have bought from a bakery then find your favourite programme on the Smart TV.

When your hungry party needs feeding, head over to the kitchen to prepare a tasty meal with your own fresh ingredients. Find everything else you need here, including an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher. Set the table then call everyone to gather round and enjoy the feast.

When eyelids droop, wander along the corridor to one of the two spacious bedrooms. Find you have a twin, with zip-and-link beds that can be arranged as a super-king-size if discussed at the time of booking, and a light-filled super-king-size that can be made up as a twin on request. Pull open the expansive glass doors in here on to the courtyard garden on warm mornings. Discover this contemporary holiday home also features a shower room.

Savour the outside space at the former barn, where there is plenty of seating for everyone. Light the BBQ to sizzle supper out in the fresh air; sip a cool glass of wine and read your book for a while. Find you have off-road parking for two cars, plus secure cycle storage.

  • 2 bedrooms - 1 super-king-size zip-and-link (which can be made up as twins on request) and 1 twin zip-and-link (which can be made into a super-king-size on request)

Arrange a visit to the beautiful market town of Beverley. One of Yorkshire’s best-kept secrets, its stunning, 13th-century minster often regarded as one of Europe’s finest Gothic churches. Take a look at the town’s medieval architecture before indulging in a spot of shopping around its lively cobbled squares. Finish off with a drink in one of the traditional, friendly Yorkshire pubs where time has stood still for decades.

Also get to know the gorgeous Yorkshire Wolds while you are in this corner of the world: this is a range of low rolling hills rising from the River Humber and sweeping along to the stunning cliffs at Flamborough Head, 21.5 miles from the cottage. The gentle nature of the countryside here makes it an excellent location for walking and cycling.

Visit the famous city of Hull, 16 miles away, while you are on holiday and take the children to while away a few hours at The Deep. This is one of the largest aquariums in the UK, housing over 3,000 marine creatures, including penguins and sharks.

The location spoilt this for us, right on a busy, noisy road. It was not possible to walk anywhere along that road with the dogs so had to take the car every day. Although the bed was huge, the quilts didn't quite cover it so we ended up using another quilt as well from the other room. This wouldn't be possible if there were 4 of you. The living spRead moreace is very compact with only one settee which seats 2, again no good if there are 4 people. Also tiny fridge. Hide

I visited the cottage with my mother and my two dogs. We enjoyed our time at the cottage especially the king sized beds in each bedroom. I also liked the kitchen and living room together. The dogs very much enjoyed the space and the enclosed area outside which was very safe for them.

Located within a mile of Hornsea town and beach this lovely spacious and comfortable property comes with all mod cons.

An immaculately presented cottage with very good facilities. Although situated on a busy road, traffic noise could not be heard in the bedroom. Good access to local facilities and countryside and the sea.

We were misled by the listing as Increased accessibility. There are no grab handles in the shower nor a shower stool so we had to purchase a plastic garden chair to make the shower useable by my friend with limited mobility. The only settee was too low and soft for her to use. We were also shocked by only being provided with one toilet roll, no tisRead moresues, kitchen roll or hand-wash. Listing states fridge freezer but it was only a small fridge. Hide

Just had a lovely week in this cottage with my brother (adult wheelchair user, leg amputee). On arrival we were impressed at how clean and modern it was. There was milk in the fridge and crisps, chocolates and drink sachets. The doors are wide enough to allow the wheelchair though and the shower room was also big.
