About this property

Milliner's Cottage, in the centre of the historic market town of Pocklington, is a short stroll from shops, restaurants, pubs, theatre, cinema, sports centre and Burnby Hall gardens. It is the perfect base for visiting the nearby city of York or for walking or cycling in the beautiful Yorkshire Wolds.

Central heating and a wood burning stove make the cottage cosy and comfortable all year round. Milliner's Cottage has been renovated to a high standard sympathetic to its Victorian origins.

About the host

Hosted by Helen Allen

We have lived and raised our family in Pocklington for the past 18 years. We purchased Milliner's Cottage in the Summer of 2017

Why they chose this property

We chose Milliner's Cottage for its original Victorian features such as sash windows and fireplaces. We have renovated the property to a high standard, including comfy beds and recliner sofas, whilst maintaining its Victorian feel.

What makes this property unique

Milliner's Cottage is conveniently located in the heart of historic Pocklington; a very short stroll from shops, restaurants, arts centre (cinema and theatre), sports centre and Burnby Hall gardens (famous for its waterlilies). It is the perfect base for visiting the nearby city of York (13 miles) by bus or car, or for walking and cycling in the Yorkshire Wolds. Central heating, wood burning stove, free wi-fi, Netflix and catch up TV services make for the ideal year round destination.
