We stayed for 2 weeks in the cottage and had a lovely time. With a family of 8 we had room to spare and all the equipment we needed. The central location in Pickering was perfect and there was so much to see in the erea we could have stayed another 2 weeks for sure. The cleaning could be improved and some equipment can use some updating.

The Ropery was a lovely house to stay in with plenty of space for 8 of us to stay plus 2 more friends who joined us for the evening. It was warm with plenty of hot water. The bathrooms and showers were good and the beds were comfortable with good quality bedding. The kitchen had all we needed to cook with and a spacious table to comfortably sit 10 Read morepeople around. It is centrally located in Pickering, with easy parking and walking distance to the shops and the steam railway. Hide

If you want to be a very short distance from all the pubs, cafes, great restaurants and independent shops this spacious house is for you. Pickering is a lovely, prosperous town with great bus links to the coast, we enjoyed our stay very much. The furnishings are looking a little tired now and the outside areas need urgent attention. The TV could doRead more with an upgrade but these minor things did not spoil our experience. Hide
