“A lovely comfortable cottage in a lovely village.”

Good weather too! Hovingham is a good centre and the cottage was great to come back to after a day out walking etc. There are loads of walks to choose from and places to visit. The village bakery is only 100yds from the cottage and the Village shop (open all hours!) 200yds away. Couldn't be more convenient. Mrs Wainwright the owner lives next door and was friendly and helpful. This was our first experience of renting a cottage and we'll certainly do it again.

“Nice One”

The cottage itself was very quaint but quite modern in design. All the facilites inside the cottage were of top quality, i must say that the toilet and wash hand basin in the top bedroom was very tight if one was shaving (wet that is)& the hot water left something to be desired but other than that it was a very cosy cottage.The surrounding area was really lovely & not far to go to many of the attractions of the area

“A most enjoyble stay in a delightful cottage”

Think the fact this was our second stay, both of 3 weeks in length, and hope to make it a third in a very comfortable well appointed cottage in a delightful village with all amenities and friendly people. The landlords were very friendly, helpful and thoughtful

“Unexpectedly brilliant holiday”

Lovely cottage,great village,good places to eat. In the middle of stunning countryside and within easy reach of so many places of interest, we could have filled the week three times over. The owner was helpful without interfering and if you want a relaxing holiday you don't need to move from the comfort of the cottage, or the village.

The property

A delightful stone-built, semi-detached cottage, nestling close to the beck in the picturesque village of Hovingham.

The cottage has real charm and character, and has been lovingly renovated to provide a very comfortable, cosy retreat.

There is an open fire in the living room and sloping ceilings in the bedrooms, while outside is a small, enclosed south-facing garden, ideal for relaxing.

Hovingham itself has amenities including two excellent inns and a village shop.

Surrounded by the Howardian Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this is an ideal location from which to explore the surrounding area.

Excellent walking and cycling opportunities are close by, whilst Nunnington Hall and the stately home and gardens of Castle Howard are just 4 miles away.

The pretty market towns of Malton and Helmsley are both only 8 miles away and well worth visiting.

An easy drive to the historic city of York and also to the East Coast seaside resorts makes this a most enjoyable holiday.

About the location

HOVINGHAM

Helmsley 8 miles; Malton 8 miles; York 20 miles.

The pretty North Yorkshire village of Hovingham sits amidst the beautiful countryside of the Howardian Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village is a real gem, with a beck running down the high street, two excellent inns, a traditional village shop, a tea room and a bakery. There are excellent walking and cycling opportunities from the village itself, as well as easy access to the beautiful National Park. The stately home and gardens of Castle Howard are just 4 miles away, and the market towns of Malton and Helmsley are 8 miles away. Historic York and the attractions of the East Coast are further afield but well worth the trip!
