With traditional cottages lining the main street and a stream running alongside the road, Bishop Wilton is a tranquil spot in which to stay, set on the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds. It has a local pub and shop, but nearby Pocklington offers many independent shops, tea rooms and pubs, along with a weekly market day. The historic city of York is 14 miles away and offers many attractions, with the National Railway Museum, its famous Minster and the Jorvik Viking Centre.

  • Mrs

    Very quiet. Loved watching the local wildlife. Hot tub amazing to get into after a day walking. Facilities in the lodge are perfect. Kitchen incredibly well kitted out and a fantastic welcome basket of goodies. Our second visit and probably not the last. Only down side is that it's easy to soak the bedroom floor when having a shower so just be a bit careful.
