We had the most wonderful weekend in Home Cottage. It is as a very cold weekend and we were warm as toast. We loved the fact that we could walk to the pub and the shop - we can’t at home and everyone was so friendly. Hovingham is a picture perfect village with lots of amazing photo opportunities. We are definitely coming back, that is if we can as it seems everyone else wants to as well!!

The property is provided with all amenities for a comfortable self-catering stay. It is conveniently located for short walks and longer hikes. We also went by car as far afield as York, Dalby Forest, Scarborough and Whitby.
