No sign as to what property it is, garden overgrown and sightly. Carpets stained and dirty. Living room door hanging on by one hinge. Tv unit and fireplace thick of dust. Bluray player not working. Table runner stained. Dining room window wall thick of damp and mould!

We booked a week break at hog warts cottage. The location is excellent and the cottage is lovely and cosy, clean and welcoming. Everything you need is at hand in the cottage. Pickering itself is a quaint market town full of character. We will certainly be returning.
