The house was very spacious, well appointed and a very comfortable place to spend a family holiday. For a small town Pickering had plenty of amenities close at hand. The location of Pickering was ideal for outings to York and the Yorkshire coast and also visits to picturesque local villages were a bonus.

Hallgarth House is an excellent holiday venue for 8 to 10 people. The place is fully furnished with everything you could possibly need. The location is also very good, close to the seaside as well as close to Dalby Forest, Danby Lodge and any other walking trails.

Beautiful big house, lovely & clean, fantastic for us as 2 families to go to Flamingoland as approximately 10mins by car. Within walking distance of local shops, great communication with the owner. We all had a brilliant time, thank you
