A Hero on Horseback Flamborough, East Riding of Yorkshire

Holiday Rental Description

Once a place to rest up horses in days gone by, this stone building has since been converted into a holiday home for those visiting the East Riding of Yorkshire.

The redesign is smart and simple, if a little cookie-cutter in scope. The white walls and grey wooden floor lend a sense of brightness, while the blue corner kitchen is both well-equipped and decently sized for when you're in the mood to flex your culinary muscles. When it comes to the rest of the living quarters, we don't have any complaints, nor are we singing its praises from the highest rooftops either.

Perhaps we are being too negative, so we'll highlight two big perks. The first is the pretty Mediterranean-style courtyard centred around a 200-year-old olive tree, although this is shared with the nine other cottages that line the sides.

The home's excellent location is another big plus-point, seeing as it puts you a short drive from a wide range of charming local attractions, from Danes Dyke Beach and the seaside town of Bridlington to the path running around the cliffs of the Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast.

Home truths:
*There are nine other cottages on the same site that can be booked out in conjunction if you're travelling as a larger group
*The home is spread over a single storey and is wheelchair accessible
*There's free parking available on the premises and an electric vehicle charging point, too
*Your host can provide a cot and high chair for free upon request
