About this property
Church View is a detached single-storey property set in the grounds of the owners' home in the pretty village of Atwick, just over two miles from the seaside town of Hornsea. Offering open-plan living, this dog-friendly Atwick cottage is well placed for families wishing to be close to both the coast and the countryside, with many attractions to visit in the surrounding area. Furnished and decorated to a good standard, this Atwick cottage has a light and airy living space, with a spacious, well-equipped kitchen. Patio doors open onto a sheltered rear garden, providing a relaxing spot in which to sit and unwind with a glass of wine whilst the chef of a group cooks up grilled delights on the barbecue! A short stroll from this Atwick cottage brings you to the local inn and the village green, whilst two miles down the road is the traditional coastal town of Hornsea with its sandy beaches, ornamental gardens, and promenade. Nearby lies Hornsea Mere, the largest glacial lake in Yorkshire, where guests can partake in watersports, fishing, and boating. The rolling hills of the Yorkshire Wolds are a short drive away, as are the popular resorts of Bridlington, Filey and Scarborough, all well worth visiting. With the stately homes of Sledmere House, Burton Constable Hall and Burton Agnes Hall nearby, guests are well catered for in this Atwick cottage.
The cottages in Atwick are made of stone and brick and are arranged around a central green. You can walk to the beach in under twenty minutes from the village's central pub, which serves food. Hornsea, just two miles down the coast, is home to a wide selection of attractions, including a beach, a recreation centre, the Hornsea Folk Museum, and the Freeport shopping centre. Bridlington, with its Bird of Prey Centre and other seaside attractions, is just 10 miles away, and further afield are the historic Minster city of York, the bustling market town of Beverley, and the City of Culture 2017 of Hull. All members of the family can enjoy this wonderful home base.

Set in a pretty and quiet village it's only 2 miles from Hornsea with its shops, cafes and many other facilities. The private lawned garden is secure and just perfect for our dog. The owners provide a warm, relaxing home-from-home experience with modern decor and quality furnishings, towels and bedding. We loved it and hope to return for future holidays. Thanks to Bob and Lil, the owners, for a friendly, personal welcome and a generous Welcome Pack.
