Once settled in your choice of our holiday cottages in Yorkshire the magnificent scenery of the Wolds invites exploration. They are a series of gently undulating hills and dry valleys. Large arable fields dominate the tops, whilst smaller pastures are common in the valleys. Open roads lead to charming and unspoilt market towns such as nearby Driffield, known as the 'capital of the Wolds', Pocklington and the historic town of Beverley, with its glorious Gothic Minster and lovingly preserved old streets and buildings. The Wolds have countless villages, with characterful inns, ponds and fine churches. Tucked away in a fold in the hills is the lost village of Wharram Percy. For a glimpse of the grand lifestyle of landowners in times past, visit Burton Agnes and Burton Constable, both outstanding Elizabethan country houses, and the Georgian Sledmere House.
Set in the ancient village of Ganton, this homely cottage with its lovely garden is perfect for lazy days relaxing or exploring the many delights of the region. Situated between the North Yorkshire Moors and Wolds, with the York Wolds Way running through the village, it is ideally placed for visitors who enjoy walking, cycling or pony trekking.
