Pocklington is a picturesque market town in the Vale of York, just below the Yorkshire Wolds. The National Collection of water lilies is housed in the 8-acre Burnby Hall Gardens, which also serve as a popular tourist attraction. Majestic Castle Howard, lovely Sledmere House, and the ancient city of York are all within easy driving distance. In addition to a Civic Centre and the Pocklington Arts Centre, which host film screenings and live performances throughout the year, Pocklington is home to a leisure centre where residents can participate in a variety of sports, including swimming. Not far from Pocklington is the KP Golf Club, which features a stylish bar and restaurant, a wedding and other event venue, and an 18-hole championship golf course. The Madhyamaka Kadampa Meditation Centre is also located in Pocklington and is well-known for its meditation courses and retreats.

    We had a wonderful stay, great welcome hamper, very peaceful & a good location for travelling around. Property was in good condition, well equipped & extremely comfortable beds & pillows. We knew the hot tub was wood fired as the property description clearly stated this but there were a few comments in the visitor book about it. I’d definitely recommend & we would book again.

    We were made very welcome

    Property is definitely worth a visit. Ideally located for a walk into Pocklington or a visit to York. 3 great sized bedrooms , modern shower rooms and a living space big enough for 6 people to chill. Has all the cooking facilities you need and a dishwasher so no time wasted on chores! The welcome hamper was fabulous and a great surprise. Wood based hot tub took time to master and heat up so a small niggle and we'd know next time. We will be back x
