2 Bed in Pickering (oc-t29975)

Lose yourself in serene views across the North Yorkshire countryside from almost every window of this sophisticated former water mill, restored to provide the perfect base for couples and families to explore the playground of outdoor activities this dramatic landscape has to offer.

Although the original mill wheel now resides in a museum in York, this cosy cottage retains its historic charm. At the heart of this home-from-home, the spacious kitchen/diner blends rustic character with contemporary touches, featuring an elegant shaker-style design combined with a glass panel on the floor that allows you to watch the water flow beneath. The soothing underfloor heating and roaring wood burner sets a truly warming atmosphere in the cosy lounge, with the beamed ceiling echoing the cottage’s rich heritage. Upstairs, the cottage’s character continues with lovely views from the king-size bedroom and twin room, both of which boast en-suite shower rooms with walk-in showers. Outside, the raised decking provides the perfect spot to soak in the panoramic rural views that stretch across the landscape. There’s also a fully enclosed landscaped lawn which runs parallel to the stream, which adds to the peace and tranquillity. Additionally, you’ll find a large parking space outside.

Pickering is a bustling market town at the edge of the majestic North York Moors, full of independent shops selling the best local produce. Explore the stunning North York Moors National Park with its unspoilt beauty; keen walkers can join the Cleveland Way from the quaint village of Helmsley (13.5 miles). With something for everyone to enjoy, from high-speed mountain biking trails to scenic walking footpaths, start a family fun adventure at the Dalby Forest (14 miles) or answer the call of the coast at Scarborough Beach (19.5 miles) by rock pooling, building sandcastles or swimming its crystal waters.
