  • "Stayed here for February half term, initial thoughts were its very specious."

    Slightly quirky layout, the main bedroom is not the room with the en-suite, but all rooms were large and it was great to see the hot tub, warmed up ready for us when we arrived.

  • "Fabulous cottage, very private & spotlessly clean."

    Fantastic facilities, everything you need. I’ve knocked my review down by one point because the beds are described as 1x super King and 2 x King, whereas they are actually 1x king and 2x double, so not quite as described & not what we were expecting. However, that did not distract from the beautiful setting and our fab stay. Excellent place to stay and fantastic service support from Mike, the owner.

    Fantastic property that feels like home as soon as you arrive. Great base as well to get around. Beverley and York to name a couple. Lovely to see the rabbits and a wander through the pathway you will get to see the 2 turkey’s. We even got to see a deer this time in one of the fields when looking out of the bedroom window. We will be back again to visit this lovely property.

    The facilities were excellent, clean and tidy and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the Hot Tub and having the added bonus of Netflix. The parking was fantastic and location really good for going places like York and Beverley and National Trusts. Pocklington was nice and near and had plenty of Eateries/Takeout's. The Plough Inn at Allerthorpe did a lovely meal and the Chinese Restaurant is within walking distance. We would definitely use Wayside Cottage if we returned to the area again.

    Just short of perfect, however as we were a party of all adults there being only one shower despite having a second bathroom/en suite was a bit of a problem and time consuming in a morning. On vacating the property on last day there were no instructions as what to do regarding supplied bedding and towels. We stripped beds and placed all used towels in bathroom as we have been instructed to in previous rented holiday cottages. Despite the above we had a fantastic time and the hot tub was brilliant.

    Some general info on how to use oven, hot tub etc would be useful (some people may need this but we worked it out) and also wi fi codes could be left (we found on back of hub). If you don’t always want to drive the bus service was very handy being only 2 minutes from the property, took only 45 minutes to get to York. Hope to rebook for next year as we loved it and had a very relaxing stay.

    Cottage and hot tub were lovely. However a few essentials were missing such as dishwasher tablets, cooking utensils(ladles),cork screw. Was also surprised that there were no plastic Glasses for the hot tub. Cups and crockery could also do with an overhaul.The bath in the en-suite would benefit from having the taps changed to a shower mixer. No elf these things would cost a lot but would improve the overall ambience of the cottage. That aside, we had a lovely relaxing break.

There’s plenty to do and see around the area but you do need a car as there is nothing in walking distance other than one pub and a small village shop. Also the cottage is described as being modern. If you going expecting an ultra modern interior you will be disappointed, rustic and homely would be a better description. Lovely place would definitely stay there again

    It was also extremely clean (something that is even more important during these COVID-19 times). Added to this, the hot-tub was a welcome treat at the end of the day. It is in an ideal location for exploring Yorkshire – York is a dozen miles away, Bridlington 30 miles away, and Scarborough, 40. The property is on a main road, although it is shielded from much of the noise by a surrounding of trees, which ensures its complete privacy. Hayton itself is small and has just a single store/post office (at the garage), whilst the Plough Inn, just across the road, has a Chinese restaurant (and operates a take-away service). The nearest supermarkets are at Pocklington (west) and Market Weighton (to the east). The village is served by an hourly bus service to York, and to Beverley/Hull. We have no hesitation in recommending Wayside Cottage, and would like to add our thanks to the owner, Mike, for his hospitality.

We arrived on a weekend of stormy weather but still managed to get in the tub which is quite open but in normal weather would be sheltered by fence and trees. We had a nice meal in the Chinese restaurant at the Pub 5 minutes walk away, they advertise a take away service but they said they had stopped doing it on a weekend. The house is only a short drive to Pocklington which is worth a visit and has a selection of places to eat, drink and get supplies, you can walk to the garage though if you want a newspaper or supplies. The only down side to the stay for us was its location next to a busy road.

About the location

POCKLINGTON

York 13 miles.

The pretty little market town of Pocklington nestles at the foot of the Yorkshire Wolds in the Vale of York. It is perhaps best known for Burnby Hall Gardens - 8 acres of gloriously beautiful gardens with two large lakes which are home to the National Collection of water lilies. There are several world famous attractions nearby - majestic Castle Howard, beautiful Sledmere House, and of course the historic city of York. The town boasts a leisure centre offering a wide range of sports, including swimming, a Civic Centre and the Pocklington Arts Centre, which shows various films and stages live shows throughout the year. Pocklington is also home to Madhyamaka Kadampa Meditation Centre, known worldwide for its meditation courses and retreats, plus the KP Golf Club is situated approx. 1 mile away and offers wedding and other event facilities, a stylish bar and a restaurant, as well as an 18 hole championship golf course. Just a few miles away is the village of Warter, which is where David Hockney produced his 'Bigger Trees Near Warter' painting. Nearby are various cycle ways including the North Sea Cycle Route and walkers will love either the long distance walks along the Wolds Way or one of the many more circular walks in the area for all abilities. For those who enjoy touring by car, Pocklington forms part of the Pocklington Round, a lovely scenic drive which takes in some of the area’s prettiest villages.
