A warm welcome awaits as you drive into what was the old farmyard.

The freedom to wander up into the shared childrens play area with access to a football playing field, meadow walk and outside willow dome seating area.
The cottage is a great base to visit the east coast, Dalby Forest, the North York Moors National Park, the beautiful Yorkshire Wolds made famous by the David Hockney paintings, and the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There is some excellent cycling in the area with the Yorkshire Wolds Cycle Route on your doorstep, with its scenic 146-mile tour of the East Riding and North Yorkshire.

The seaside resorts of Scarborough, Bridlington and Filey are just a short drive away with large, open sandy beaches, caves and coves, or for those of you who prefer a quieter resort, Flamborough Head is close by with stunning walks along the clifftops from North to South Landing.
Visit the stately homes and beautiful gardens of Burton Agnes, Castle Howard and Sledmere House, and a children’s zoo and land train at Sewerby Hall. The bustling market towns of Malton, Pickering and Beverley, renowned for its minster and racecourse, are all worth a visit.
The historic city of York is just an hour away with its wide variety of museums including the Railway Museum, Castle Museum and the Jorvik Viking centre. York is very picturesque with cobbled streets surrounding the magnificent minster, along with river boat trips, street entertainers and an abundance of restaurants and real ale inns.

Loved our stay at The Roost, it was ideal for our three generations family break. The accommodation was very clean, comfortable and well equipped but the kitchen isn't very big, so it occasionally felt a bit crowded. Our two grandchildren enjoyed having the field to burn off some energy! We had a wonderful time at Bempton Cliffs RSPB reserve (sadly we were a little too early for the puffins) which is a pleasant walk from Manor Farm and also visited Filey. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
