had a brilliant 5 nights at fox cottage stayed with my sister for our annual few days away she lives in Cumbriaand Im on the south coast. The cottage was lovely and welcoming had everything we needed. A short walk into Beverley. Information on local eateries and pubs was brilliant. Bonus was free parking a few yards round the corner from the cottage. Would highly recommend and hopefully we will return.Beverley a lovely town and we did visit Hull a short 15min train journey away.

Cosy little cottage in a good location within about 10 minutes walk to the town and station so good to be able to explore places like York and Scarborough by train rather than driving. The cottage is warm and has everything you need my only suggestion would be some better pillows as they are all very flat.
