About the home
Built in 1850, this cottage is a pretty, Yorkshire red brick semi-detached property and is situated on the edge of the rural village of Skerne. 10 miles from Beverley, this welcoming former farm worker's property has been comfortably and traditionally furnished throughout to provide plenty of character. The living space is composed of a fitted kitchen with breakfast area, and a sitting room with dining area and open fire. With the North York Moors, Bridlington, Scarborough and Whitby all within easy driving distance, this makes a great base for exploring the region.

The Northern England / Yorkshire/Yorkshire Dales region
The North York Moors National Park covers 554 square miles, with landscape ranging from heather-clad moorland and deep secluded dales, to the cliffs and coves of the magnificent coastline. A haven for walkers, the area also boasts great cycling, gliding, riding and fishing, whilst North York Moors Railway is the perfect way to enjoy the beautiful scenery in a more relaxed setting.
Visit the market towns of Pickering or Thirsk; the latter famous for its links with the English country vet and author, James Herriot. Nearby, some of Yorkshire’s best-loved villages including Thornton-le-Dale and Rosedale Abbey offer a taste of village life, as does Goathland, ‘Aidensfield’ in the TV series ‘Heartbeat’. Finally, stop off at Castle Howard and Duncombe Park, two of Britain’s most historic stately homes situated in breathtaking parklands and gardens.
The cliffs, sandy beaches and smugglers’ caves of the Yorkshire coastline are a haven for beachcombers and coastal walkers. Discover the quaint fishing villages of Robin Hood’s Bay and Staithes, with their brightly coloured fishing boats. Finally, there’s the historic city of York, with its interactive Viking Centre, Roman walls, medieval streets, vibrant shops and gothic York Minster cathedral.
The Driffield / Skerne area
On the borders of the Yorkshire Wolds and close to the bustling market town of Driffield is the peaceful village of Skerne. Set in wonderful, rural countryside, this charming little town is not a traditional tourist destination so visitors can experience local life. The nearby town of Driffield is often known as the 'Capital of The Yorkshire Wolds' and provides a variety of family-run shops, tea-rooms, public houses, and a twice-weekly market as well as two supermarkets. Annually, the town's showground hosts the local Agricultural Show and a historic Steam and Vintage Rally. The canal banks at River Head make excellent scenery for a number of interesting walks whilst Cruckley Animal Farm and the puffin and gannet colonies on the soaring Bempton Cliffs are worth visiting.

This was a lovely cottage in a pretty little village near to Driffield and it was an excellent base from which to explore the Yorkshire coast and the Yorkshire Wolds.
