Charming property in Pickering. Steps from Pickering centre and ten minutes from Pickering castle and train station. Great property for a family vacation. Pickering is a convenient base for day trips to North York Moors and Yorkshire Dales National Parks and Whitby and Scarborough.

Amazing review thank you !! I’m thrilled you all loved everything about your stay and found the property comfortable and well equipped. We would love to host you again.
The house served our needs for a week. Positives are location in the centre of Pickering, a well-stocked kitchen (albeit awkward moving around the table to sink and dishwasher), renovated bathrooms (only one shower). The place was generally clean. However, I would not recommend staying until the severe damp has been remediated. The two front rooms and hallway had damp crawling up the walls. Clearly, an attempt to paint over it had been made in the past, but it needs professional renovation. There is a moldy smell on both floors. If it hadn't been for that, the place was great. We would have liked more than 2 toilet rolls to be provided, and some paper towel, but these are small comments. We did tell host and stay about the damp.

Thank you for your detailed review and for sharing both the positives and concerns from your stay. I’m glad to hear that the location and kitchen suited your needs and that you found the bathrooms renovated and the place generally clean.
I sincerely apologize for the issues with damp and the moldy smell you encountered. This is certainly not the experience we want our guests to have. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and want to assure you that we are taking steps to have the damp professionally assessed and remediated as soon as possible.
Thank you also for the feedback regarding supplies — we’ll make sure to provide extra toilet rolls and paper towels going forward.
Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve, and we hope to welcome you back in the future with a much better experience.
