Mill Cottage

Mill Cottage is a delightful detached property set within the grounds of the historic Old Mill House. Furnished to a high standard and benefiting from a private hot tub, this welcoming retreat provides comfortable accommodation for families and friends looking to enjoy a relaxing East Yorkshire getaway.

Featuring a private hot tub, a rural setting and family-friendly facilities, this three-bedroom retreat makes a lovely base for families and friends looking to spend time together while exploring the surrounding countryside and nearby city attractions. Pull onto the private driveway and leave the car outside your holiday base before taking in the countryside surroundings and making your way towards the property. Step inside via the conservatory, where you can pause with your morning drink or simply enjoy an additional space to sit before beginning the day. Continue into the living/dining room and sink into a seat after your travels, switch on the TV or choose a film for the DVD player, before gathering around the dining table to share a meal and map out tomorrow's adventures. When it is time to cook, head into the kitchen and prepare a family favourite using the electric oven and hob, with the fridge/freezer keeping ingredients fresh, the microwave helping with quicker bites and the dishwasher taking care of the plates afterwards. A washing machine is also ready for muddy walking clothes or longer stays. For guests who prefer to remain on the ground floor, a double bedroom provides a place to retire at the end of the evening and benefits from its own en-suite shower room, allowing you to freshen up beneath the walk-in shower in the morning. A separate cloakroom completes the ground-floor facilities. Climb upstairs to find a further double bedroom, from which the third bedroom is accessed, adding an unusual element to the cottage's layout. Head through the double room and climb the ladder to reach the king-size bed nestled among the old beams, before settling down for the night. Serving the first floor is the bathroom, where you can choose between a soak in the roll-top bath and a refreshing shower before heading out for another day. When the weather draws you outdoors, make your way into the garden and take a seat among the furniture with a drink, fire up the gas barbecue for an alfresco meal or sink into the private hot tub and relax after a day of sightseeing. The shop can be reached within a short drive, while the local pub lies a little further away when you fancy an evening away from the kitchen. Spend a day at York Minster, where you can admire its Gothic architecture, discover centuries of history and take in the intricate stained glass. At the National Railway Museum in York, encounter historic locomotives, explore railway collections and discover the stories behind Britain's rail heritage. For a day surrounded by nature, visit Burnby Hall Gardens in Pocklington, where you can wander through landscaped gardens, see the renowned water lily collection and pause beside the ornamental lakes. Beyond the attractions, browse the market town of Pocklington, spend time among the historic streets of York or venture towards Beverley for another day discovering East Yorkshire. Return to Mill Cottage following your adventures, ease yourself into the private hot tub and enjoy an evening together at your countryside base.
