The Cart House

About this property

Skipsea 1.4 miles. A beautiful traditional cottage with wooden beams and sage windows and doors, The Cart House rests in Ulrome, near Skipsea, and is the ideal getaway to North Yorkshire, for those who love history and heritage. Park off-road and be welcomed by the picturesque exterior of this property, where a sitting area welcomes you to relax with a coffee in the sunshine and plan the day ahead of you. The interior of this property is simply stunning, with hints of history and heritage throughout to add character and charm to the open-plan living area. With contemporary furniture, treat yourself and your guests to a hearty meal cooked in the spacious kitchen, where there are loads of amenities for guests use, and serve your masterpiece at the dining table, before settling down in the sitting area for a film night, with the bare-brick walls, tall ceilings and wooden roofbeams creating a light and airy atmosphere. Two bedrooms nestle within this picturesque property, beginning with a double on the mezzanine level with an opulent free-standing bath ideal for relaxing soaks after a long day of exploring and there is also a charming ground-floor twin with a contemporary en-suite shower room. The rear of the property sports a second enclosed sitting area where you can relax with a glass of your favourite beverage as you reflect on your day. Ulrome is a quaint hamlet situated next to the coastal village of Skipsea where there is a pub, convenience store and a handful of shops and eateries. From here you can access the stunning local sandy beach and enjoy watersports, wild swimming or simply relaxing with a picnic and taking in the view. Skipsea also has the ruins of Norman Castle, and for more historic sites, head over to the seaside town of Bridlington where there is a museum, as well as Bridlington Animal Park, a golf course and extensive coastal walks through Danes Dyke Beach and nature reserve. Beyond this is the seaside resort of Scarborough, with its lovely harbour, beach, independent stores and great many pubs and eateries, and it also houses a museum, art gallery and a fantastic castle, Scarborough Castle, making it an excellent place to visit all year long. Filey is another lovely town with a museum, Filey Bird Garden and Animal Park and from here you can visit The Bay Beach or head into the North York Moors for a scenic walk. All of this and more with a stay at The Cart House.

The village of Skipsea, located 10 miles south of Bridlington and 6 miles north of Hornsea, is in a typically rural location surrounded by lush agricultural land. It is also just one mile from the beach and near to the North Sea cliffs. The town boasts its own tavern, hair salon, general shop and post office. Cobbles from the seashore are used in the construction of many of the village's homes, both historic and contemporary. The ruins of Skipsea Castle are located just outside the hamlet. The neighbouring coastal towns of Bridlington and Filey have long, sandy beaches and a variety of tourist attractions, while the surrounding countryside is ideal for cycling and walking. Sledmere House, Burton Constable Hall, the Deep Submarium at Hull, and the North Yorks Moors Steam Railway at Pickering are all within 20 miles of Skipsea. The shops, cathedral, and museum of historic York, the seaside resort of Scarborough, and the North Yorks Moors Steam Railway at Pickering are all within an hour's drive, and Whitby is only a short distance away.
