2 Bed in Haxby (oc-t36047)

Once a busy village post office, this carefully converted property makes a superb Yorkshire base. Set in the village of Haxby, 4 miles from the centre of vibrant York, the two-bedroom cottage sleeps four guests and is well located for days out to places of interest and beauty spots. Explore York with its 2-mile-long stone walls and celebrated minster. Visit galleries and museums here, including the famous Jorvik Viking Centre, with its immersive and interactive displays. Potter in independent shops and high street stores, ensuring you leave enough time to while away an hour or two in the narrow Shambles. Pause for afternoon tea or sit down to a full meal in any one of York’s many restaurants. Keen walkers should venture further afield to discover the varied, dramatic landscapes of Yorkshire. Head to the Howardian Hills, 11.5 miles away, or the North York Moors, 17.5 miles from your base.

Enter your new holiday retreat to find it beautiful and welcoming interior and finished to ensure exceptional comfort at all times. Stylish modern features now sit comfortably within the character property, which still reveals some of its original beams. Head into the kitchen/diner to unpack the local delicacies you have shopped for and put the kettle on to make a cup of strong Yorkshire tea. Discover you have all the space and accessories you need here for preparing home-cooked meals on those occasions you opt to dine at the cottage. Enjoy your meals or set up a board game at the table in the kitchen/diner. Afterwards, stretch out on the large L-shaped sofa to catch up on your latest boxset on the Smart TV. Open the French doors to the courtyard garden to bring the outside in on warm days. One of the two family shower rooms is downstairs. The other can be found on the first floor, together with your two cosy double bedrooms.

Spend spring and summer holiday downtime out in the lovely courtyard garden. Have lunch out here on hot days and sip a sundowner at the table on balmy evenings. Guests benefit from private, off-street parking for one car. There is additional on-street parking, subject to availability.
