Cottage to rent in Pickering (2.5mls S), North Yorkshire

Accommodation details

This lovely property in North Yorkshire is ideal for families looking for a relaxing holiday and the perfect base to discover the surrounding area. The chalet is dog-friendly, so your canine companion can enjoy the fun. The market town of Pickering is just 3 miles away, with many shops and eateries to enjoy.

Pickering is also home to the North Yorkshire Moors Steam Railway, so grab a ticket and ride to the coast at Whitby or get off at the heritage stations along the way to enjoy a walk on the moors. Three steps lead up to the entrance of this comfortable, contemporary chalet. Step into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with large bi-folding doors that open onto the decking, flooding the room with natural light.

Cosy up on the sofas around the electric wood burner-effect fire and unwind after a day of discovery. Rustle up a home-cooked meal in the kitchen area, equipped with everything you need to make meal preparation a breeze. Along the corridor, you will find three bedrooms, two doubles and one single with an additional pull-out single bed.

Completing the chalet is a spacious family bathroom with a shower over bath and a WC. Outside, the property benefits from a raised decked area with outdoor furniture, the ideal place to relax and enjoy dining alfresco on fine evenings. There is an enclosed garden area, a private woodland, and a large field to exercise the dog.

For a fascinating day out in history, head to the Eden Camp Modern History Museum (4,5 miles). For a day at the beach, enjoy a drive to the Yorkshire Coastline and explore the seaside town of Scarborough; visit the castle and then walk down to enjoy fish and chips on the seafront. Castle Howard (13.5 miles) is another great family day out.
