About this property
Keepers Cottage, 21 Coppergate is a historic, terraced cottage built in 1798 nestled in the village of Nafferton, East Riding of Yorkshire. With two bedrooms sleeping four guests, the pet-friendly cottage offers a characterful base for two couples to explore the best of coast and countryside. Be welcomed into the living/dining room with wooden beams, charming furnishings and a Freeview TV for a relaxing retreat after the day's adventures; your dog will love curling up in front of the open fire, whilst you sink into the inviting leather sofas. Set the table for four as the group's chef whips up a delicious meal in the neighbouring kitchen with everything needed for your self-catering stay, including a washing machine for muddy walking gear and sandy towels.
A patio door leads out to the rear, enclosed garden where pets can play in safety; why not uncork a bottle of wine and toast to your holiday retreat! Choose from one of two well-appointed double bedrooms to unpack and make yourself right at home. Get ready in the bathroom, complete with a heated towel rail for a warm, fluffy towel after a soak in the tub or rinse in the shower over. You'll find a coffee machine in the kitchen to whip up a round of coffees to kick-start your morning and plan the day ahead; stock up in Nafferton's convenience store or take a break from the kitchen in one of three country pubs, whilst the surrounding countryside is perfect for walkers.
History buffs will relish nearby stately homes, including Sledmere House and Burton Agnes Hall, to wander the halls and gardens of grand manors. Jump in the car or take the train to Bridlington for a day at the pet-friendly Bridlington South Beach, discover historic artefacts at The Bayle Museum or stroll along the picturesque harbour. Flamborough Headland Heritage Coast is just next door for incredible vistas, birdwatching along RSPB Bempton Cliffs and historic lighthouses. Stay on the coast for plenty of attractions in Filey and Scarborough or alternatively, spend the day wandering the winding streets of York for quirky shops, beautiful city walls and the gothic York Minster.

A nice touch was already having some supplies there like tea coffee and even some crumpets which were a godsend for hungry folk after a 6 he drive. Gorgeous little cottage nestled nicely in Nafferton village. Close enough for days out driving and taking in the local hotspots of York, Bridlington, Scarborough and Whitby, which we made full use of. Spotlessly clean, warm and cosy and just perfect for our visit to family nearby.

My husband would have liked a teapot! But obviously thats not necessary for everyone. Some details on what recycling, rubbish went in which bin would have been helpful- it was guess work, as every area allows different things. We had a lovely week thank you, lots of walking, really convenient place to access most of the Wolds. Good local buses and trains to get about, as an alternative to using car.

homely and comfortable with everything you need and we would go again if in the area again. Village is friendly and also plenty of dog walking opportunities. Owner is friendly and unobrusive too. Handy also for Beverley, Hoensea.Filey, Bridlington, Scarborough and Whitby, York etc. Bempton is close too if you are into bird watching so something for everyone.
