The stately homes of Burton Agnes Hall, Sledmere House and Castle Howard are all within a short drive, with Beverley and York racecourses easily accessible.
The cottage is ideally situated for walkers wishing to explore the local area and the North Yorkshire Moors, with the long distance walks – Minster Way and Wolds Way passing through the village.
The cottage possesses a unique view overlooking the village pond where ducks and moorhens can be watched, along with the shoals of fish inhabiting the pond. The 11th century village church can also be viewed from here.
