Nestled within the tranquil expanse of rural East Riding of Yorkshire stands The Old School House which is a charming Victorian school house dating back to 1857. This historical gem has been restored to offer comfortable accommodation with a quirky exterior as well as interior. Surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of open countryside, this holiday home is a haven for nature enthusiasts, offering unparalleled bird watching, hiking and cycling opportunities. The Coastal Path is only a mile from here.
Step through its doors into a welcoming dining area, complete with a family dining table and an extensive collection of games and DVDs for entertainment. A small utility room with a washing machine adds convenience, while the sunny living room invites relaxation. The interior boasts a quirky charm, with open-plan double bed room shared with the living room, a kitchen featuring a breakfast area to accommodate four. A spacious wet room-style bathroom ensures comfort with handrails within the shower area and next to the toilet, and a heated towel rail.
Ascending to the first floor reveals two further double bedrooms offering far-reaching views towards the River Humber across open countryside, alongside a family bathroom with a corner bath and shower over. Outside, a garden with seating beckons for unwinding amidst nature’s embrace. The garden is surrounded by mature hedges but remains unenclosed due to its location within a conservation area.
The Old School House offers ground-floor living designed with accessibility at its heart. The bright and airy open-plan layout combines the main living area with a comfortable double bed, ensuring everything you need is accessible on the ground floor. This convenience extends to the modern, fully equipped wet room, which features a level-access shower, a shower seat (on request), and strategically placed grab rails for your peace of mind. To ensure a comfortable stay, tailored to your needs, the bathroom also includes an adjustable toilet seat (on request) and a heated towel rail, blending comfort and warmth within this holiday retreat.
For outdoor adventures, the nearby Spurn Point Nature Reserve beckons with its seal colonies and diverse birdlife, while golden beaches await at Easington and Withernsea. Just a short drive away, the vibrant cities of Beverley and Hull offer a myriad of cultural delights, from theatres to The Deep aquarium, and ample shopping opportunities, all within a 30-minute journey. RSPB Bempton Cliffs can be found further up the coast, whilst the stately home of Burton Constable is well worth a visit.
On your return you can enjoy a pre-ordered delicious home-cooked meal lovingly prepared by the owners. In the morning you can treat yourselves to a delicious Full English breakfast in the owners’ private kitchen in the former classroom. Beaches 10 miles. 2 dogs, 2 cats and 2 owners are in residence in the former classrooms.
