Beck Cottage

• "A lovely characterful cottage providing accommodation to a very high standard, perfectly maintained and scrupulously clean."

  The owners seem to have thought of everything, from a welcome pack of cake, chocolates, tea, coffee and milk, through to extra birdseed for our feathered friends using the feeders outside the kitchen window. Beck Cottage has a great location, only a short level walk to the pubs, restaurants and shops in Pickering, and with the added bonus of a great view of the steam trains running into and out of the station. During our week we managed to squeeze in two days out on the railway, visits to Helmsley, Whitby, Thornton-le-Dale and Scarborough, and took in a Pickering FC home game. There's so much to do and see in the area that a week is never enough. We were sad when it was time to leave Beck Cottage and would gladly return anytime.

  Thanks very much for the feedback we’re really pleased you enjoyed your time at Beck Cottage . Kind regards Bill & Yvonne Property Owner

• "We had a lovely week at Beck Cottage."

  The property was as described, well appointed, oozing character and in a very convenient position, just a short walk into the town and overlooking the NYM railway. Without repeating all the positive comments from previous guests, I was particularly impressed with the attention to detail and the many thoughtful touches throughout, including the welcome pack and the best ever lemon drizzle cake. I would stay there again without hesitation.

  Fantastic location with the heritage steam train to the front and Pickering Castle to the back, plus being easily walkable into Pickering. The cottage had great attention to detail, from the coat hooks in the bedroom to the resources onsite. Toasty warm in this cold weather and easily accessible instructions about equipment.

  Great location for exploring with plenty of things relatively local to keep our 6 year old son busy and of course you can't beat the sight and sound of the steam trains passing by. The cottage is kept exceptionally clean and well appointed and the welcome pack is a great touch. The owners are very accomodating too as they changed their plans for us so we could book an extra night so we could take the boy on the NYMR Light Spectacular and their communication and care is top rate.

  Beck Cottage was pristine inside and very comfortable with lovely beds and sofas. Everything you could possibly need was included, even things you wouldn't think of such as binoculars and torches, along with some lovely welcome gifts too. Beck Cottage is directly opposite a little level crossing just before the station at Pickering and we could watch the steam trains going past from the bedroom and lounge windows. It is just a few minutes walk into Pickering itself, and Pickering Castle is just behind the cottage and you can see it from the pretty little back patio. We will certainly return to Beck Cottage, and would give it 10/10.

  The cottage was roomy, comfortable & very well appointed. I take it as read that the knives in any holiday cottage will be blunt but not here! Sharp, quality, Sabatier knives so my sharpener stayed packed. Comfortable beds & bed linen, a good shower & thick towels; all indicative of the thought & care the owners have put in.

  Lovely welcome gifts which included home made cake.

No issues with parking in the car park over the road (a permit is provided for one car) and we heard no noise from the renovations next door (the owners left us a welcome pack with a card explaining what work was being done and when there may possibly be any noise which was a thoughtful touch). The kitchen was really well equipped and clean and the log burner in the lounge is highly efficient (we would suggest turning the central heating down if you intend to use the fire as the radiators are very efficient at keeping the cottage warm!!).

There was everything you needed in the cottage you could have wanted if you wanted to cook . Bed was so comfortable even a washer /dryer so I did not have to do a load of washing when we got home . The cottage was immaculate yes there was the steep stairs but it was not a problem to us . There is a tiny garden which is well planted up you can sit out there . Cannot fault this cottage at all one of the very best we have been in . Will be coming back in 2021 . A well worth hoilday in a lovely cottage . Thank you to Mr morris and family

• "The cottage was very comfortable and provided all the facilities we needed."

  The location was good. Pickering is a delightful market town and is in a great position for exploring the North Yorkshire countryside and the coast. We enjoyed having views of the steam trains from the living room window each day and appreciated the discount vouchers for travelling on NYMR! Pickering has some great tea rooms and restaurants available. We would recommend Beck Cottage for anybody looking for a holiday in this region.

• "Since staying at Beck Cottage last year, the owners have made some changes (new carpets and decoration etc."

  ) making it even better. The cottage is warm, clean and cosy. As for the view well, if you're into steam trains couldn't be better; the cottage overlooks a level crossing and you can sit comfortably on the sofa and watch the trains go by. The town shops are a simple five minute walk away, with a market on Mondays. There are two supermarkets; Co-op and Lidl. The cottage is a great base for exploring the Yorkshire Moors and is easy driving distance from Scarborough and Whitby on the coast and Sutton Bank and Castle Howard further inland.

  We were opposite the steam railway which was fascinating, if you're worried about it being noisy then don't be as it hardly made any difference at all. We headed up to Scarborough and Whitby through the North Yorkshire National Park, absolutely stunning, and then headed down the coast through some picturesque villages, Saltburn was beautiful with a long beach ideal for a long walk, travelled to York one day which was full of old beautiful buildings and of course York Minster, Castle Howard is also a must see! We were lucky to have the village to walk to if we needed anything and of course some lovely country pubs! Great place, great cottage, stunning scenery what more could you want

  The owners were very helpful when we had a problem with the WI FI. They arrived within the hour. With a call to the provider it was soon sorted. The cottage is very comfortable with all you require for a long or short stay. The wood burning stove adds to the comfort also there is a washing machine, dishwasher, gas cooker and microwave.

  We enjoyed it so much that we've already booked it again for the summer! It's an extremely comfortable house, both well equipped and warm. Pickering is within walking distance so it's easy to find restaurants and bars that don't require a driver. Next time we'll do the steam railway and the castle as both of these were closed for the winter.

• "I booked this cottage purely because it had been previously owned by my Grandmother from the late sixties to the early nineties and I have many fond memories of the cottage and Pickering itself."

  I celebrated my sixtieth birthday at the cottage. The cottage has been much improved with the addition of new double glazed windows and a wood burning stove, although even on the coldest night in December, the gas central heating provided all the warmth required. The owners have made every effort to retain and enhance the "cottagey" feel with stripped internal doors. It really had the feeling of "home from home". The cottage is perfectly placed - opposite the NYMR - underneath the Castle - and within walking distance of the shops.
