Nestled within the village, this historic cottage stands as one of the only two pairs of cruck-framed long houses that endure the test of time. These traditional abodes, characterized by arched strong beams, served as shelters for both families and livestock. A glimpse into the past is offered through the well-preserved features, from the enduring beams in the ceiling to the captivating fireplace in the entrance hallway.

Spanning two floors, this charming country cottage invites you into a warm embrace. The ground floor unfolds with an entrance hall leading to a cosy living room, complete with an electric fire nestled in a stone fireplace—an ideal sanctuary during winter. The living room seamlessly connects to the adjacent dining room, which, in turn, opens into a well-equipped kitchen. The kitchen exudes a welcoming atmosphere, boasting a spacious gas range cooker with a double oven and eight gas rings—perfect for crafting hearty, home-cooked meals. Convenience extends to a ground-floor shower room with a toilet.

Ascending to the first floor, the first bedroom reveals a double bed beneath a vaulted beamed ceiling, complemented by fitted wardrobes and drawers. The second bedroom showcases the original cruck beam, housing a second double bed, built-in wardrobes, and bedside cabinets. A family bathroom completes the upper level, featuring a bath with a shower over it. Adjacent to the parish church, Kings Head Cottage resonates with the chimes of Sunday bells. Stepping out, you find yourself just moments away from the town’s myriad shops, cafés, restaurants, and attractions. Pickering, a picturesque market town with a medieval castle, serves as an ideal launchpad for exploring the North York Moors and the nearby coastline.

Discover the charm of Pickering with its iconic steam train journeying through heather-clad landscapes to quaint villages and Whitby. The North York Moors, a haven for walkers, boasts numerous trails and abundant wildlife. Nearby, the food capital of Yorkshire, Malton, beckons with its market, award-winning restaurants, and cookery school. Castle Howard, a magnificent stately home, promises awe-inspiring moments. Kings Head Cottage offers a perfect retreat for a delightful and diverse Yorkshire experience.

I would like to give this 5 stars but I am unable to do so because of the local church which is very close to the cottage.For whatever reason, the bells were ringing out at all sorts of times — including 11pm, 2am and 6am!!The sound of the bells made it impossible to get a decent night’s sleep.Someone needs to report this and get it stopped.

Beautiful, cozy cottage in a central location, only a short walk to shops, bars and restaurants. Well equipped for couples and families. There are two parking spaces, but their location is not obvious on arrival and it would be advantagous for this information to be in the arrival instructions rather than just in the visitors book inside the cottage.The only thing that spoilt our stay, as light sleepers, was the church bells sounding every 15 minutes with only a couple of hours respite in the early hours.
