Pocklington is an idyllic, quaint market town located 14 miles east of York. York is a world famous city steeped and full of history. Explore the city's walls, stroll through the cobbled streets filled with cafes and restaurants, venture into the Minster, or sip Champagne and place your bets at York Racecourse. Head over to the picturesque market town of Beverley, 20 miles away, for more delightful days out. It s home to Michelin star restaurants, bakers, musicians, and even curiosities such as puppet makers. Pocklington itself is a quaint, rural place to stay which is perhaps best known as the popular starting point for the winding Chalkland Way.

The double bed is grand and comfortable with a Smart TV close by, perfect for a lazy morning watching your favourite film. Snuggle up in front of the wood burner on a winter's evening there is also underfloor heating throughout. The hut includes a small fridge as well as a mirror and sideboard.
