In a nutshell: Detached, hot tub, wi-fi, pet friendly Our featured Vale of York cottages include this lodge between York and Market Weighton, a thriving market town at the foot of the Yorkshire Wolds. Its most famous resident is William Bradley, born in 1787, who grew his way into the Guinness Book of Records as England`s tallest man ever, measuring 7feet 9inches tall. Bradley's extra large chair is still in his local pub, the Londesborough Arms, and there is a heritage trail, marked by 23 life size giant footprints. Just outside the town the Kiplingcotes Derby takes place every year on the third Thursday in March. It is widely accepted to be the oldest annual horse race in the English sporting calendar having taken place every year since 1519.
